How it feels
A thoughtful, dialogue-focused experience where you navigate the weight of clinical gatekeeping and personal impact through tense patient interactions.

What players say
Players are sharply split. Many say reviews calling it transphobic miss the point and that the game critiques the gatekeeping in trans healthcare. Others find the therapist's views harmful and unrealistic. The game is very short, running about 10-20 minutes for all endings, and is described as emotionally raw and uncomfortable.
