Everything in the game is smeared with vagueness to cover its shortcomings. It feels like someone entirely foreign to video games had a cool idea but lacked basic video game theory to make it rewarding or enjoyable. I feel like most that recommend do so because they think it validates their intelligence and because calling games where nothing happens "art" is in fashion. I didn't put it down until I beat it but the same could be said for most browser games. You just stroll along an ill-defined catwalk for 5 minutes and watch an end sequence that nowadays could have been animated by a 10 year old.

After failing a room, the same thing will happen, making it unclear when you should feel like you've accomplished anything. After "beating" an area you'll find yourself either in a new room or right back where you started. There's no goal other than connecting the different rooms and seeing all the hint messages along the way.

The basics are you move from one room to the next solving puzzles in a minimalistic 1st person world. The basics are you move from one room to the next solving puzzles in a minimalistic 1st I'm not as charmed with this game as others have been. I'm not as charmed with this game as others have been.
