I decided to play this again after over 10 years since I last played this.

I didn’t really remember anything at all about the game and I assumed that it would be a game that was good for the time, but aged poorly.

I was insanely wrong in that assumption. It’s incredible to me that this narrative still holds strong as one of the best ever in gaming. How your choices you make feel so gut wrenching and there’s no “right path.”

The gameplay, while limited and not many options, creates an overwhelming sense of immersion that I have never really felt in another game. You make every move so deliberately and during tense sequences, you are just as terrified as the character cause you don’t want to mess up. The controls still work and I never felt like a death was due to controls.

That’s how I’d describe this whole package, the most immersive game ever made. You really feel for the characters and the narrative makes you want to keep going and get to the end, even though what you find will break your heart, it still makes you feel so deeply.

I walk away from this game with it being one of my all time favorite narratives, immersive experiences and favorite games of all time.

It’s time to go to season 2!
