How it feels

a melancholic yet quirky journey blending real-life self-improvement with tactical fantasy battles, moving at a contemplative pace.

What players say

Players praise the inventive simultaneous turn-based combat that feels like solving puzzles, and the story of an aimless thirty-year-old gamer is called relatable. Opinions split on length: some find the 4-6 hour run time fitting, others say it's short for the price. The ending is often described as underwhelming, and the game's meaning grows as you play.
