The main character, Alex, has OD'd on being a millenial and Tartarus Key wants to focus on her alienation. She adapts to the insane circumstances of the cult's escape room groverhaus quickly simply to feel wanted, and to see her labor and education actualized.

But even though there are other characters, they're all cutouts compared to Alex. That's perfectly fine, to be frank, but they're adjuncts to an insipid plot that's just not as interesting as our main character. In the end, it drags her down and the game's themes with it.

The puzzles are fine too.
