The 10 or so minutes where you’re in your house cooking dinner and calling your neighbour and son are great, but everything else is underwhelming at best and grating at worst. The art style doesn’t suit the game, the gameplay elements feel too streamlined and absent from consequence, and the overall dialogue maybe is decent for video game standards but that’s a low standard. I’ve seen the same writing hundreds of times in films and shows and it’s not interesting anymore. For a game so enamored with its writing, you’d think it’d be more novel or expressive.
