This one left me a bit conflicted. The game has a very dark sense of humour as you explore a day in the life of a young girl from a broken home who decides to go on an adventure. Along the way you are given a look into her cute and wholesome misunderstanding of the gruesome world she lives in.

It has a very Eastern European sense of humour given how dark and bleak the goings on are but it's endearing to see the character take it all in stride and try to find the optimism in her naivety. The result is a comical point and click adventure that leaves you a bit torn between feeling concerned for her and curious at what exactly is going on since some of the events blur the lines between fantasy and reality.

There isn't actually much gameplay involved as you're just interacting with things and listening to dialogue for most of the game with occasional A or B choices that just leave room for 1 extra run through if you want to see the alternative events - though nothing that significantly changes the story - though there is a special ending if you achieve a certain goal.

Points for originality, but I get the feeling they could have just made an animated feature and gotten the same result.
