Your a dude, life kinda sucks, manager is weird, working 3rd shift, but life is not as it appears as we find out more about our character, I enjoyed it, got the extra endings besides I believe the hidden ending involving finding all the clues (not spoiler... there is a tip on the menu screen) but the endings had a pretty interest twist to them, keept me engaged and interested to where I wanted to see the other endings.

Graphics were pretty solid for PSX/Old-school graphics and tbh this game did the whole VHS/CRT effect really well.
