walked around an unfamiliar city and got totally lost by accident, found my way back to somewhere i recognized, deliberately got lost again, found this little shop where i managed to clip through the ceiling to get stuck in a corner behind two shelves with no way out.

early on there's a bridge that goes through the open air between buildings and there are all these flying cars flying past below and you can't fall off, but it still makes you feel... something. a good deal further on there's a bridge across this big corridor with flying cars whizzing through, much closer, and then it turns out you can fall off this time, right past the cars onto the road, and it feels very much like this isn't somewhere where you should be walking.

throughout the city there are spots of varying sizes full of people hanging out, playing music, drinking. each one has a different atmosphere. none of them have any dialogue, they reuse the same appearances over and over, and there's no text, but they feel more alive than any bar in any other game.

very good little game/walking sim about exploring a city. phenomenal atmosphere. creates a sense of immersion that big-budget open world games could only dream of.
