It is pricier than 81 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 94 percent. On the same math DISTRAINT 2 ($0.80, scores 81) and The Almost Gone ($9.99, scores 49) are the better buys, and they are the games it most resembles.

What players say
Cute, and by the end moving. But the characters move so slow that it was kinda frustrating. I can get it if the slowness was part of the meditative vibe, but it sometimes kills the experience. There are some surreal moments that really elevate the game. On the one hand I feel like there was potential for more, but I'm also glad the game doesn't overstay its welcome.
1 more review, not recommended
I debated whether to recommend this or not and ultimately decided not to. This game obviously means a lot to the devs and is very personal, but that's one of the problems with this game. They made it for themselves, or to have some closure from that moment in their lives, not to make a game accessible to a lot of people. I am also a Millenial that dealt with with a lot of the things the game talks about but somehow...
