Good game, like said somebody before here, its type of game you finish once and never play again.. mabye to collect achievments... overall it was decent game worth its price
The most terrifying part of the game is when the [spoiler]spooky skeleton jumps out with a job application[/spoiler].
A beautiful game, with sharp and subtle criticism of ideas about work that, alas, are still present in Italy. One of the most disturbing games I've played in recent months. I give it 8/10 only because of the very short plot, but that's fully justified given the price and the various endings
Interesting game, but there's not much content and it can be a tad broken. I wouldn't recommend getting off of sale, but it's a nice quick game.
Fantastic and short game. Worth the price for its quality, strafe for the norm, and brevity. the end bit was a bit on the nose. I think allowing the game and its message to speak for itself would have felt like a cleaner and nicer end. The ending jump-scare was awesome. The preachy end message was ok. Id end on the awesome
i REALLY wanted to like this game...but its been months since it came out and no word on any fix or progress for amd graphics users other than completely downgrading my driver just for this game.... it crashes after you catch like 2-3 fish every time. and not like "game shuts down" crash, its "my graphics card just crashed" crash. i will GLADLY change to recommended when i can actually play it, until then? i cant recommend such a broken game
