Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Launched as a Kickstarter project all the way back in February 2015 and released in May 2019, the game shows a lot of promise for the developer and delivers an intriguing story with solid gameplay, though admittedly it sometimes left me wanting.

I did need a helping hand on a couple of occasions in the last chapter but overall the game really hit the sweet point between being not too easy and not too challenging.
