A gaming sub free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Always wanted to play it when it was released, but never got around to it and totally forgot about it.

Till it popped up in my recommended feed and bought instantly.

Damn, what a game. Point & click adventure game at its finest. If its not the humor or the beautiful art that draws you in, the music certainly will.

If you like point & click games, this one you should definitely play this game.

I really appreciate that this game has movement from keyboard. Saved me a bunch of clicking and the experience was nice!

Fun characters and worldbuilding. Doing these quests felt very true to the plot, everything looks internalized and, in some places, eye-opening. Little foreshadowing here and there: Domino's lax attitude, Olivia's final poem, blooming in the morgue, etc.

I even got hands on some early storyboard, where there were plans to do final locations more grand and the myrriad of possibilities that could come out of it, but I still like how it turned out despite some rethinking and cutting. For me, the ending section was fittingly grim.
