This review contains spoilers

I'm a little down on the endings to this game, which is why it isn't rated higher. However, the vast majority of this game I really liked. You play as Sean, and during an event in which your father is murdered by the police, you find out that your younger brother Daniel has telekinetic powers when he lashes out and kills the cop. The rest of the game is you and your brother on the run, as you try to survive and raise Daniel. The game handles the terrible treatment of Mexican-Americans throughout all five episodes, forcing the player to choose what they'd do in those types of situations. My favorite parts of the game have to be the romance with Cassidy in episode 3, and confronting your mother who abandoned you as a child in episode 4, which is extremely well written and doesn't vilify the mother, while allowing the player to decide their own feelings towards her.
