I find this game to be so calming and relaxing I played for free on my ps4 vr and I'm so glade it was on sale I DIDNT EVEN KNOW THEY HAD IT ON PC! I'm happy I was able to replay this game and enjoy it

A very weird, wtf kind of experience, but also very interesting and fun to play. If any of it was symbolic, rather than pure artistic vision, I don't really care. I didn't get any of it. But the game looks quite nice though, has some interesting gameplay mechanics, has a great soundtrack working with the atmosphere, and I just had a good time playing it. The overall pacing, however, was really stalling for time. In...
6 for the art direction, 4 for the content. In overall, sorry, it's a no this time.
