Steam review snapshots
How can you resolve an ethical (and emotional) problem?" I think it's the most important (and engaging) question here.Pros: – Interesting, relatively short gameplay sections – Unique art style – Good sound and music design – Full gamepad support Cons…Perhaps it is a willing preference of the developers to making the player to better explore the game …A narrative based walking simulator with some puzzles and minigames thrown in and a lot of moralizing.Why it fits
Check it if you want indie filtered by story rich, single-player.
