This review contains spoilers

Short and sweet nature walking, occasional branching path, mystery game. It has one of those endings where when it happens you might be a bit disappointed, hoping that there really was some big conspiracy and maybe even something magical happening, when in reality you just have a tragically grounded story with broken people. My main gripe, but also sort of an appreciation with the game is how it works with its limitations. I know this is a smaller indie dev so I expected them to be cleverly minimal whenever someone else was shown on screen, but once I realized that was the ceiling of their ability it kind of took away some of the suspense. I knew knowing that, I would never actually run into Ned, or the fire fighters, or the researchers and worst of all I knew I wouldn’t have even glanced Delilah. Having in the back of my mind that I probably wouldn’t see a fully animated human with rigged face animations made me know I would never finally meet the person I’ve been speaking to all this time. Aside from that this game has a great amount of exploration and detail to sink your teeth into for the length along with some good moments for semi-invisible game choices.
