About the game
Let's spend the next three real-time days together uncovering the mystery of what went horribly wrong on a derelict generation ship, with the help of a spunky/more-than-slightly-traumatized AI sidekick! A sequel to Analogue: A Hate Story that tells a whole new hate story of its own.

The value story
It has been discounted 99 times in the 13 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 70 percent, about 5 weeks apart. Today's $2.49 at 75 percent off still sits 152 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history.
On value it sits in the top 5 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 88 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 85 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Gemini Rue ($9.99, scores 67) beats it on value, while it beats Heaven's Vault ($24.99, scores 58).

I don't know why Steam even allows such intentional trolling of...

This is a great story that hits a lot harder in 2024 than I imagine it did when it originally released. That said, while the story is superb, the execution is lacking. Having the ability to read a visual novel in essentially any order you want means that there can be no real pacing, something that is only sort of addressed with the real life time gates and later game file unlocks. After reading the last file and...
Screw this bollocks. This game is a technical disaster, low-ass resolution (ever heard of HD, Full-HD or 4k?), scrolling feels broken and non-smooth in a game about scrolling and reading texts. SPOILER WARNING!!! Then the dev added a fake achievement. Level four revive blablabla. I dont mind that i cannot obtain that, but because of that i wasted HOURS of my lifetime, THE ONLY THING I CAN NEVER GET BACK to save...
