This game is such a roller coaster of emotions. Some of the most beautiful imagery I’ve ever seen in a video game. Genuinely awesome soundtrack (both the licensed music and original material).

There were moments when it was frustrating and boring, and the storytelling can sometimes be way to literal and explanation based.

But I truly did love the story underneath, as it was one of hope and the importance of connection to get through rough times. Some subjects hit real close to home for me, and at times it can get quite depressing, but this strong sense of hope and helping each other is always there to lift you back up.

Again, some game mechanics and cut scenes really didn’t work for me, but other parts of the game will be forever in my mind.

I’m rating it a 7.5<->10.5 out of 10. I’ve decided conventional scales don’t cut it for games like this.

I would love to know your opinions if you want to share them!

    I’ve been interested in this game for a while but I’m in a bit of a strange genre spot in that I love delivery games and simulators but lately I don’t want to play anything particularly stressful. I keep adding it to my cart and then removing it, lol.

      i feel like the most stressful parts are probably near the beginning. as you play you quickly get so many resources and options that it’s never very stressful. there’s also difficulty options if that helps too
