Anyone who knows me will not be surprised that I loved this. The critical success that this game pulls off is in building an additional mystery throughout the narrative that is not required to be solved by the player but merely gestates up to the conclusion when you hit a very organic BANG moment where the story clicks together---while the epilogue somewhat locks in this mystery you can still figure it out completely on your own through the hints and connotations dripfed through the game, with each piece of evidence building up to a central thesis (somewhat like Paradise Killer). It's somewhat a shame that Return of the Obra Dinn perfected a genre and invented it at the same time, which will lead to any successors like this to be inevitably compared. There are certainly similar ideas and design mechanics but everything here is presented at a much smaller scope---individual mysteries that are much smaller, much tighter, but occasionally much more complex.
