A baffling and confusing experience. Once you realize this was made by about 2 people you begin to understand why the game is the way it is.
The whole experience is disjointed. Every section feels disconnected from the next and there's no real narrative. Or characters. I don't know why I've remembered Harper from this game, maybe because of how nothing of a character she is has ironically made her memorable. There is almost nothing in this game that is actually about the subject material and the creatures. They appear maybe 2 or 3 times in the game.
It's an extremely cheap game. I think the most they spent on it was the licensed music?
The puzzles all suck, there are maybe 2-3 monster types. All the weapons to deal with them are clunky. Stiff controls.
This game should be half a star but there is something about it that makes me not want to hate it. It's terrible, but it dosent make me angry. Maybe it's just that it's low hanging fruit and easy to dogpile on smaller devs.
In any case, not good.
