Story and characters

Finishing one ending led me to immediately want to experience the others, because I was still quite hooked on it game loop enough to not feel bored; Side note: Love that it lets you experience the other endings without the grind of re-doing the final level; BIG kudos to that.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
There is an astonishingly sublime presentation to this game that I don’t quite think I’ve seen replicated in any other game that I’ve had interest in playing; I’ve stumbled across games with surrealist imagery in the past, but they were usually reserved to genres or gameplay loops that I didn’t have interest in jumping through.

Overall a fun experience and if ur looking for a not too hard card game with very surreal and unique visuals this one is it!

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The audio design complements this perfectly, with voiceovers from internal monologues, ambient whispers, and sudden jolts of noise that mirror the mental tension of the protagonist.
