Imagine not only coming up with one interesting world but all in all seven extremely detailed and interesting worlds, all densely packed into the almost 6 hours it took me to beat the game. The pacing is tight, it never gets boring, every second feeds you with imaginative worldbuilding and incredible writing. Sure, there are some elements like the extremely rudimentary combat that could've been deleted all together and some technical hiccups, but I highly recommend it!
I enjoyed the conscious artifice and light philosophical quandaries in the literary sub levels, and the diversity of genre settings they use. Each level efficiently evokes its setting in a way that feels familiar without feeling derivative, where I’d actually want to read a few of these books. And then the first person bridge sections and the overarching plot between book levels tie it all together satisfyingly.
I really enjoyed the concept of the game, with just enough lore to get me engaged with the plot but open enough for my imagination to take off.
Controls were very jarring on console, not enough to ruin the experience but I would warn someone about it before starting.
I wanted more lore and story from a 6 hour little 2.5D game which I think is a great compliment.
