This is more like an ARG than a game. The full value comes from knowing its origins and will not make sense stand-alone. It has a good foundation trying to do what it wants to achieve, but it doesn't seem to ever get there. Besides the initial shock value, it becomes pretty unimpressive with references to memes to destroy the atmosphere. To expand on this, I get how some people think that the cultural gags might work to build its story, but I think that is an arguable explanation and the point still remains that the creator could have been more effective to establish a tone with better means than memes. That aside, I guess it didn't work for me. Liminal spaces are overrated and it feels mindless at this point, although it was executed better than most. I think that the thematic points of loss, trauma, and memory are where its strength is at, however, it doesn't do enough to really establish it or make it worthwhile to convey any clear message regarding it. Lastly, I love the atmosphere and how the story is obscure, except I think they relied on this alone too much, and also not enough, because it loses meaning. Nothing can be proven and any explanation feels like a reach. It serves much more as an experience than a tangible thought.
