So, how IS fish made? Hell if i know.

I just know that I found this surrealist-existentialist PS1-aesthetic thought exercise in the meaning of choice and its consequences more intriguing than I thought I would.

While the finer details of the narrative still elude me, I did appreciate the intensely creepy atmosphere of the place we find ourselves in, somehow both organic as well as metallic. The dialogue walks a fine line between profundity and absurdity, and - as far as I know at least - no other game features an almost 3 minute musical number by an isopod with a top hat about the nature of rotten meat and being tormented by choices we don't understand. Hell, the game even has two endings.

If I had to criticise something, I'd say that a game running on PS1 graphics doesn't really have an excuse for consistent frame drops on a relatively modern PC.

Really fun and cool game tho, goes from start to finish in under half an hour. Heavy Trypophobia trigger warning tho.
