Super fun, full of charm, love the music, and very fun to 100%. Short and sweet.

My hours are wrong because I accidentally left the game on for a long period of time (one playthrough is ~13 hours long as per HLTB), but alas.
BELIEVE THE HYPE. This game is a step forward for storytelling in games and masterfully weaves a story about androids in order to help us as player explore what it means to be human.
Quantic Dream knows what they're great at and plays to their strengths - exceptional storytelling that rivals not only other games but great films and prestige TV shows, but in a way that only games can do, which is to say in branching interactive narrative where player choices have meaningful consequences that take the story in wildly different directions. Before I played this game, I was never one to subscribe to the film/TV industry's doom and gloom about how games are replacing them. Now I understand why they're scared, much like how the humans in this game are rightfully scared that androids are taking over, or how the greatest artists and thinkers of our time are rightfully concerned with how AI threatens human storytelling and creativity.
I won't spoil anything but in this game, we see android characters deal with some really heavy subject matter, and the visual fidelity combined with the excellent IRL facial/mocap acting performances mean that the androids in this game, which are at the end of technically just polygons and sound effects on a computer, come off as very alive and you as a player will probably get hit with not only some feelings but some deeper questions about why you as a human being feel those feelings for digital, android characters. I'm gushing about how brilliant this is on a metatextual level. Whether or not you believe games are or will ever be art, or whether you believe robots will ever be able to feel as humans can feel and love as humans can love, this game pulls no punches in asking those questions alongside you as a player. This is the kind of game that renewed my faith in the medium, and I'm excited for what Quantic Dream has in store for Star Wars Eclipse and Spellcasters Chronicles, both big swings in different directions!

Great fun with friends! A successful Warhammer spin on the Left 4 Dead 2 formula.

Super fun, has some obvious Balatro inspiration but the coin-pushing and other aspects of the game help it develop its own niche. Excited for full release!

Great demo! Had a blast playing this. Tribute Games is on a roll and I'm so glad this is the studio handling the next Scott Pilgrim game.

Not crazy about the title but I gave this demo a play and wow. They are cooking with this.

It's awesome in every way. Cool gameplay upgrades. Fun to play throughout. Some crazy set-piece moments in there. Engaging story with some seriously different yet equally compelling endings.

Not going to give a thumbs down to a student game, and I wanted to check this out because it got a PC Gamer nod, but... once I started the game by clicking a button on the main menu, the framerate plummeted to 1-3 FPS every time, making it basically unplayable :(
Not sure if it's some heavy dependency on ray-tracing, lack of support for AMD cards, or something else...
I've got a PC with RX 7700XT, Ryzen 5 5600, and 16GB RAM so this game should run no problem. This is a PC I play Final Fantasy XVI and other AAA games on...

I love this game. One of the early Xbox indie gems. Amazing soundtrack from Disasterpeace.
