What players say
This game does some really creative things with the limitations the developers have put upon themselves. It is fairly short, but both gameplay and story is solid. It got the retro feel down, but still feels modern enough in it's gameplay.

Very confusing, minimal hints, minimal guides, the story progression felt very weak, nothing to keep us engaged in the game, its just survival torture at this point, even the survival gets tiring very fast, keeps repeating over and over and over again. Not recommended at all unless you like to bore yourself to death with repetitive survival contents.
