Story makes no sense if you think about it. Seriously, don't do it, you'll go crazy. Still fun as hell to play with a buddy or partner.

I had an unforgettable cinematic experience playing this game with my sister. It delivered countless exciting and emotional moments that kept us hooked from start to finish. The ending, in particular, was truly unpredictable and left a lasting impression. Kudos to Hazelight for creating such a masterpiece! If I had to point out one downside, it would be the lack of a running option in several sections, which sometimes made the pacing feel slower than it should. Aside from that, everything else was exceptional!

More and more people need to have the experience of playing this game. Once you finish it the only thing you'll want is to forget the story and play it again.
