Steam review snapshots
Actually peak story about a trans woman, made me cryFirst time around, it's grotesque and fun, but after 50+ times, I basically played on mute, lest poor JJ's screaming drove me…+ unique visuals + deep cryptic and fragmented story + pretty complicated (as the game itself) + weird puzzle mechanics (da feels..ouch)…But the very core, the experience, told through gameplay, visual and atmosphere, is strong, resonant and unique.Why it fits
Check it if you want action, adventure filtered by weird, single-player.
