What players say

Players describe The Protagonish as a very short proof-of-concept where you play as NPCs guiding a protagonist. Most complete it in under 30 minutes, and many call it too brief to recommend as a full game. The art and voice acting are praised, but bugs and limited scenes are common criticisms.
