So I started playing this game but it's really not my cup of tea in general, it's not really the type of game I would personally elect to play if I wasn't just picking up and trying every free-for-a-limited time game I saw, so I'm not going to give it a rating and full review at the moment like I normally would but I'll give a little description of what to expect for anyone who might want to pick it up free. (I've only played through twice i.e. gotten 2 out of 16 possible endings which took me about 30 minutes).
There are two things to do in the game basically – drive and talk to people, and the dialogue options you choose influence the ending you get. The driving isn't super advanced, you can basically just steer and speed up, and there's an autopilot for when you're not in a particular hurry that will drive for you so you can focus more on dialogue. However there are times when you need to race or chase someone which is a little hard to do when your only options are to hold down the accelerator and steer, though I guess you can kind of bump into the other car if you want, I tried that and I couldn't tell if it was helping but I won the race at least lol. You also have to do that while juggling dialogue but it's not that hard since the mechanics are so basic. Oh, and you can also pick up hitchhikers and talk to them.
The dialogue is the part I liked more and I think the whole point of the game is to learn more about the characters and get all the endings to piece the story together, especially the story of the main character. It is kind of interesting and I may come back around to it just for the story, but the game is also set in Italy in the 1970s and there are all kinds of historical and political references I don't get so I got kind of lost. Maybe I'm supposed to learn more about Italian history through the dialog in addition to the characters' stories but yeah I wasn't really invested in that part and I personally wasn't a fan of the dialogue/driving combo so that's why I say it's not my cup of tea. But if you like character/story-driven games (and have an interest in Italian politics?) you might like this more than I did and want to pick it up while it's still free.
