It took like 90 minutes to complete it. There only one ending, sadly. lets hope dev will make something longer next time, with different choices. it was quite cheap, so 4 of 5 - my rating.

It is 2039. 99.99% of the population is dead. The surviving animals are afflicted, and you have to run and avoid animal attacks. You play as a survivor of the epidemic. Some of your family members might still be alive due to their genetic lottery, and you are going to find out. Although it is a short game, it is still recommended. The game exhibited stuttering at the Epic graphics settings, so I slightly lowered the graphics settings. English dubbing is okay but the Turkish dubbing was excellent.

The game offers 2-3 hrs of game time (maybe less if you rush, what's not recommendable since this game is a walking-sim). For 12€ absolutely not recommendable, it has very nice views, there's a story that you can quickly follow unlike the main character. I bought it for 2€ on steam on sale, therefore thumbs up.

Öncelikle söylemek isterim ki Türkçe seslendirme işine bayıldım emeğinize sağlık. Alışkın olmadığım bir şey, genelde varsa Türkçe altyazı o da yoksa mecbur İngilizce oynarım, tüm oyunu seslendirmeniz mükemmel olmuş. Bu oyunun daha gelişmiş, uzun halini oynamak isterdim :) atmosfer güzel, konu kısa tutulmuş ama derinleştirilebilecek potansiyeli varmış. Bir noktada dini bir komün mü yoksa y.a.m.y.a.m gruba mı düştüler diye merakla oynadım, ikisinin de olmaması daha da hoşuma gitti çünkü şu oyun sektöründe başka bir hikaye de olmalı artık dimi :) çoğu sorum havada kalmış olsa da ben beğendim.

A decent little adventure walking sim. Sadly the performance is not good. If you have a good pc and like the genre, you might wanna grab this in a sale.
