There are a lot of dialogue choices you get to make when talking to people, how much they affect the story I’m unsure of. I will say that, while the overall story was fantastic, the last 15 minutes of the game felt rushed and left certain plot lines unfinished in my eyes. There is no voice acting but I didn’t find this to be a bad thing. It’s got a unique style to it that isn’t quite cell shaded or realistic, somewhere in between the two. Luckily the band practice can be skipped without consequence because it is like playing Rock Band which I despise. In between dealing with friends you can take part in voluntary mini games such as a 2D action game on Mae’s laptop and taking part in band practice with friends. They have a creepy quality about them and a great soundtrack. The platforming sections are well done aside from the odd time I found them hard to navigate. When you go to bed each night there is a dream section that is based around platforming sections to find the exit to the dream. Talking with certain townsfolk will shed more light on them as well. Depending on which friends you talk with will decide whose story you see the most of. The game consists of exploring around town talking to your friends, townsfolk and your parents. The supporting cast of her parents and her home town friends are all interesting in their own ways and I liked learning more about them as the story moved forward. That being said I see it as an authentic character as many people are like this and there is nothing saying I have to like a main character to enjoy a game. ![]() I didn’t enjoy the main character at times as she is pretty much a screw up who doesn’t realize how childish she is being and is pretty selfish at times. The game puts you in the shoes of Mae who has just dropped out of college and moved back in with her parents and is trying to reconnect with friends while trying to navigate strange events happening in town. It’s characters go through very relatable issues and aside from a couple plot twists is grounded in more reality than most games dare to dream of. What it does have though is one of the better stories I have come across in recent memory. There is not much “gameplay” to speak of aside from some light platforming and a short rhythm section.
