Breaking Bad Adaptation
This is a free visual novel on the Steam store. Had good reviews and the artwork seemed alright, so I added it to my library. After playing it, I do not understand how it's been rated so highly. Could only stomach about an hour of it before I dropped it and promptly removed it from my account.

The plot is heavily inspired by Breaking Bad. Immediately after this aspect of the story is introduced, problems start being shoehorned in that feel completely avoidable, and it was at this point that I dropped the game. Even before this, I had to suspend my disbelief because the main story involves your grandpa's debt needing to be paid or else your parent's house will be taken as collateral. I don't believe this is how debt works as debt isn't inherited by children or grandchildren (at least in the states).
Minor complaints include grammar and spelling errors (including the game's description on Steam) and dialogue boxes that were missing the name of the character speaking. Also they do not reveal the gender of the MC being male until about 15 minutes into the game which made my choice of a feminine name unfortunate.
Skip this unless you want to play it for the lols.
