“A very unique experience heavily hampered by the fact that there are people that go through this exact situation every single day, even in 2026.”

“Fun game, great artstyle, and has a good story. 10/10 Might not be for everyone, though. It gets brutal, so if you don't like that kind of stuff you probably won't like this game.”
