Very creepy. I'm not sure what the wet dream had to do with the rest of the story, but otherwise I enjoyed it a lot

This was really really cool! You don't really get to see that period of time through the perspective people outside of Paris, or just hear patois in general. I loved the visuals, I really felt the Disco Elysium inspiration with the character portraits and thought it was cute. Super good game.

This is so satisfying yet leaves me craving more, as if I was in a book store and picked up the book with  the intentions to just skim it. Only to have realized hours passed and I read a quarter of the book and had to leave, and once I got home all I could do was think back on it and wish I had bought the damn book.

This is amazingly horrifying, how is this free?!!

(+3)

most of the best things in life are free 😏

Words cannot describe this fully. Everything about this is an experience, just that. The lack of knowledge about what you're going into truly adds to it, makes every thing just hit that much harder. Some parts were disturbing but not overly so, instead the kind of disturbing that sits around in your mind, lingers there instead of hitting you all at once.

woah

Strong Disco Elysium energy in the presentation, really loving this genre of no-choice/minimal-choice narrative games
