This might be the worst game I played in 2023, though calling it a game is somewhat insulting to the medium.

You have very little agency as a player: none of your choices matter, and there's no penalty for failure. The entire "gameplay" loop consists of pushing the left stick forward, completing QTEs (or not), interacting with computer terminals, and looking at random objects. There's a lot of backtracking, and it doesn't help that the player character moves at a very slow pace. Oh, and there's no run button.

The story is very weak and as predictable as you can imagine. There was no interesting mystery to uncover. There's only one twist, but you see it coming halfway through. The ending sucks too. None of it mattered.

The only positives I can think of are the visuals and the performances of the voice actors.
