I think this game belongs at least adjacent to Disco Elysium in a conversation about excellence in video game writing. A beautiful, horrifying, funny, and deeply poetic game which somehow manages to be acutely a game about the present and the now, despite containing androids, mutants, and visions from God. Feels like a dirge in video game form, and it uses the video game part well, using the interactive medium to make you feel, more than anything else, like a person in a family, a person with history, a person who has come home.

If I had to criticize anything, there is a combat system which feels not ancillary per se, it adds a bit of spice to the otherwise-straight-adventure-game gameplay, but it's definitely not interesting. Some of the puzzle design also features a smidge of pixel-hunting and a smidge of moon-logic, but nothing too terrible on either front.

Genuinely something special, play this immediately.

Absolutely wonderful little murder mystery whodoneit. Absolutely scratched the logic puzzle part of my brain, and was deeply satisfying to unravel over time. Highly recommend for anyone who even sorta likes the murder mystery genre.
