Played through the first road trip tonight, I'm mostly bewildered and unimpressed, still not sure what this game is supposed to be, I gather there's more to see and I'm curious to see what unfolds but I'm not particularly excited to continue on.

The character interactions and political commentary make this kinda feel like it's trying to be Disco Elysium, but with 1% of its writing power.

So this is an attempt at like a telltale style adventure game rougelike? It's... an interesting idea, but it just doesn't ever quite pull it off for me, there's the occasional interesting story beat and some of the characters are fun, the adventure rougelike road trip is a cool idea too, but they give you zero reason to care about your endless string of faceless teen player characters. They tout no run being the same, but after finishing I don't feel like the experience would be much different at all playing again, in the end I feel like I had very little influence.

I want to like the Blendo-games style gameplay shifts, but every minigame goes on three time too long, the whole thing went on too long.
