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.

Yes! I still listen to the OST from time to time. Awesome piece of art.

Had it for ages but it's just been sitting in the "to play" list. Perhaps this a sign it needs to be bumped up!

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.

Played it back then and bought it again remastered because adventures are great and I'll die on that hill.

I don't think I ever finished that one. I seem to recall going to a forest, but can't remember anything past that. I suppose I should find it sometime and give it another shot. I'm assuming either physical discs or GOG. I just bought a Steam Deck and need to track down all my old stuff like this to load it up with.

Steam deck was how I got around to and finished it after having been in my backlog for years and years. It's been helpful with the suspend feature making it easy to pick up and shut off for a quick session, and didn't run into issues on the Deck with it.

It's been on my backlog for AGES, since it came out. Maybe it's about time I finally dive in.

I played this through the steam deck and the art style aged I credibly well and the story and voice acting was really good. Kept me hooked throughout, but I did have to rely on a walk through when it came to the puzzles.

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.
