Culture is difficult to deeply portray in videogames. Sci fi games often run into particular trouble, preferring to use shorthand borrowed from other media. JETT avoids those pitfalls, and I think it broadly succeeds in its efforts to discuss relationships between science, myth, invasive species, and endemic life. There are flaws, sure, but overall this is one of the most interesting games of 2021. Plus, it produces a range of gorgeous visuals and has a great soundtrack to enjoy with its story.
