All I can say next is how much I'd like to try out a sequel or something similar in terms of Papetura's visuals.

Smooth instrumentals are pretty much the only subgenre that click here if you're looking for a custom soundtrack.
Gameplay

61 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Even without any real risk of losing progress, there are plenty of checkpoints if for some reason you wish to take a break from this experience that's length-wise more cinematic that what poses for 2022 cinematography.
