everyone is focusing on the spooky boys (which, let me be clear, is a huge part of why this game rocks - they GO for it). but we should also acknowledge that this is one of the best "linguistics-style" learning games out there. i worked in a linguistics lab in college and am very picky about movies/games that are about learning language or communicating across a barrier. no game has ever captured that interesting language-barrier-gameplay like this one. it lets itself be challenging by not auto-locking in definitions, meaning you have to pay close attention and label words with detail and context if you want to make sure they're used correctly. l love that they make it an honest, real challenge. It differentiates itself from games like Chants of Senaar, which lets the player have a safety net of confirmation. anyway, play this if you are a dating sim and horror fan who also wants to crack language puzzles in a way that makes you feel real smart n'at
