How it feels

A slow-paced, text-heavy adventure where you explore a weird retro-futuristic facility filled with dry humor and odd details.

What players say

Players describe this as a text-based adventure with puzzles and a sci-fi plot. They praise its humor and many pop culture references, but warn that getting the good ending is difficult and progress can be blocked by obscure triggers and bugs. There is no save system, which some find frustrating.
