A fascinating, ornately Lynchian horror art piece. The use of the repeated traversal through a single day with Stanley Parable-esque branching decision points leading to different stories and perspectives marries fantastically well to the surreal abstraction of the game's story. The ARG stuff is cute as well, although it's certainly a shame to think that this game will likely be unplayable in ten or twenty years.
My one complaint with this, which is simultaneously a nitpick and a major issue, is its use of GAN-generated "photos" for the human faces. Even if this is an intentional artistic choice, so-called "AI art" is antithetical to the practice of art as a whole and should be given no oxygen whatsoever. It would not be infeasible to take portraits yourself if you needed them, and it's a shame that this holds me back from wholeheartedly recommending this game.
