A really unique and creative game. The randomly generated order for maps/chapters is really fun (but some emotionally beats hit weirdly sometimes), and it sounds like the music is randomly selected which makes for some weird undertones for the scenes too, but I like it. I want to look up how the random generator works since there is still an …

I want to look up how the random generator works since there is still an overarching story to follow.

This is a neat game. Glad I started it now before it leaves GamePass in a week or so.

I'm trying to figure out what about this game bothered me. Was it the relatively short story? Was it how some of the characters seemed out of place? Was it the fact that all the stories seem to have a foregone conclusion, so despite the freedom of choice, it feels more like you are forced down certain pathways? I'm not sure. I like the music. I like the overall message. Most (not all) of the characters are interesting and engaging. There are fun mini games and challenges so it's not just point and click interactivity. However, once I finished, I didn't really feel much. It felt to me like a good, not great, game. An interesting concept that wasn't executed properly. A half baked idea.
