How it feels

A slow, contemplative drift through a decaying synthetic world where every choice nudges the story forward without clear direction.

What players say

Players praise the game's cyberpunk atmosphere and ambitious open-world concept, especially for a single developer. However, many warn about frequent bugs, clunky controls, and a lack of polish, with some noting the use of AI content. Opinions split on whether the potential outweighs the rough state.
