This game has some meat on its bones, it's actually a game and not an interactive experience, which tends to be the case with these "interactive stories". don't get me wrong, there are still a lot of QTE's and cutscenes, but this isn't anywhere near Telltale levels. It's more comparable to Until Dawn than The Walking Dead. The gameplay elements are pretty fun, with some detective work and pretty complex story branches. Your choices aren't the only thing that affect the story, what you find or don't find also play a role in that. It's really cool, and really makes it feel more "alive" than a game like Life is Strange, which I love, but in which you can feel that it's a predetermined story.
As for the story, it's really enjoyable. I know it does a good job in delivering its message because it actually made me change my answer to the question that runs through the game, and I'm pretty thick-skulled. Get this game if you can, it's way better than a lot of interactive stories.
