A near masterpiece of queer rage, the haunted binds of domesticity in flux, and the reflexive nature of memory and narration. Its dated simplicity in visual design is more than made up with its eerily effective sound design and heartbreaking vocal performance by Sarah Grayson. Playing this with the commentary highlighted the intricately complex process that something like this requires within its deceptive exteriors. There's much that goes into the narrative misdirection that the exploration leads the player on and it pays off beautifully by the end. This is a game that initially purports conflict and confusion in its voids of spaces but then become a serenely moving tale that finds ghosts in love and love in ghosts; encased as tragic echoes perpetually trapped in winding suburban hallways and fleetingly filled bedrooms.
