I played this mostly narrative game on the Steam deck over 3-4 sittings, roughly 10 hours. I enjoyed the themes it explored of starting over in a new town, but at its heart this is a game about the crumbling healthcare system (especially here in the US.) It really ramped up at the end story wise and in fact felt like it ended somewhat abruptly. I will note that some of the mini games did not work great for me, but that could be because I was playing on Steam deck - the mini games are also optional and can be toggled off in the settings.

The story almost feels like it's a smaller part of a larger one, with a lot of characters and elements not getting as filled out as I personally wish they could have been before then end. If the goal was to just give a snapshot based on experiences of real healthcare workers, I could see how that affected the story (something about this is mentioned in the credits.)
