Story

For anyone who has lived with dementia in whatever form, be it friends, family, patients, or neighbors, this story will tug at your heartstrings.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
15 of 122 sampled reviews raised it
The nearest equivalent to this would be those $1 indie self-published books in the kindle store, but this one comes with a full multimedia experience of graphics and music too.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
6 of 122 sampled reviews raised it
The art is well done, pleasant to look at and soundtrack helps to paint the atmosphere rather well, but it is not something very memorable (ha-ha, memorable. it is a game about dementia, and people with dementia cannot remember very well, AM I RIGHT?!).
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
6 of 122 sampled reviews raised it
I won't go into details about the story, but there were often parallels with my own experiences that made the story feel very real at times... and in general it is easy to sympathise with the main character.
