Great for college dropouts. A story that attempts to combine the personal story of a directionless millennial youth with the setting of an economically declining rustbelt town nostalgic for the good old days. The central mystery driving the plot almost immediately takes a back seat for most of the game in favor of the actual main focus of the game, which is just hanging out with friends, reading witty dialogue, and awkwardly trying to avoid talking about why you dropped out of college. As much as I enjoyed the fun and riffy interactions between Mae and her friends, I would have liked just a bit more focus on the actual mystery side of the plot. But overall, the game still offers a heartfelt and quirky experience. Would definitely recommend to my fellow disaffected Midwesterners in their 20s.
