Complementing the visuals is a haunting soundtrack by Ryan Roth and Halina Heron that flows between wistful melodies and uneasy tension.

The game thrives in multiplayer mode, where up to four people share the same unfolding story, laughing, debating, or groaning at the absurdity of their characters’ lives.
