How it feels

A quiet, introspective experience where you scroll through a social feed as time dilation stretches conversations across years, creating a sense of distance and loss.

What players say

Players praise the concept of experiencing time dilation through a social media feed, but opinions split on execution. Many call it a short, thought-provoking read best finished in one sitting. Some find the story surface-level and note the lack of a save feature. The price is frequently criticized as too high for the hour-long experience.
