What players say
Players are split on Light Years Apart. Some praise the world-building and sci-fi story, but many complain that choices feel meaningless with a linear, scripted narrative and that the protagonist is sidelined in favor of their sister. The writing is good but rough in places, with occasional author notes or bugs left in.
