even though i had problems with this game i'm giving it 5 stars because MY LORD this is the most excited i've been about a project in a long time. finding new clips felt exhilarating and figuring out the plotlines of the films as they were entangled with the social drama of the in-universe cast and directors was so god damn fun. my issues arise with the end game: i got the credits roll when i felt like i was only halfway done with the game, and the search for the last 20-10% of clips felt impossible as all the new symbols i was discovering would only lead back to clips i already found. i'm on the fence about the "canon" answer this game provides with The One, i think this game could have worked much stronger as a grounded piece uncovering the cycle of power and abuse as all the men in marissa's life fail her from a young age. but even saying that, i was really moved by the Candy Says scene. i'm so glad i got to play this
