I LOVED this. Visually stunning. Bleak and European; greater than the sum of its parts. Cinematic, but not in the way Uncharted is, more like in the David Cronenberg way. But uniquely also a video game. Interactivity allows the thin narrative to be expanded in your head. Also, seems to be greatly inspired by old point and clicks, like Giger's own Dark Seed or I Have No Mouth.
Obviously wears its inspirations on its sleeve, but surprisingly goes to new places with the material, and keeps your imagination running throughout. However, I do have to dock a point for the actual frequency of combat in the mid game. It's mostly tedious and sometimes frustrating.
I appreciate that this is a genuine freak game for freaks, we need more of that. I will recommend this to you online or if you do not know me, and I would likely never tell someone who could see me in person to play this.

This is a silly game with a melodramatic story; not high art or anything, but great fun, with excellent characters and the best iteration of the turn based puzzle battle system. Play on PC with EXP share to limit some time wasting. I've been playing with dual audio, and it's been a great way to revisit the game.
