I don't have the words to describe how good this game is, or how excited I am for the free Pristine Cut update coming soon.

I'm just floored by how this game's narrative, artwork, voice acting, and music came together to affect me emotionally.
Within two days, I no longer had to debate about what my favourite game ever is: this is it. There's no argument anymore.
This is also one of those games that benefits greatly from knowing as little as possible about it beforehand, so I'm not going to tell you about the plot.

What I will tell you is:
1) I have constant anxiety about picking the "right" path or a "good" path in games that are heavily story-based. I don't want to pick Option B if the writers obviously put all their effort into Option A.
2) This game was designed from the beginning with the intention of making every path valid and fulfilling; it tells you right on boot-up that "There are no premature endings. There are no wrong decisions. There are only fresh perspectives and new beginnings."
3) I've scoured every route in the game out of sheer fascination with the narrative, and I can confirm, there are no premature endings, and no wrong decisions.

It's that "no wrong decisions" philosophy, along with the absolutely stellar artwork/music/voice acting, that turn this game from a fascinating story into an emotional & personal journey of discovery for anyone who plays it.


If you can spare the cash, I really do think you owe it to yourself to play this game.
If you can't spare the cash, it's worth wishlisting it and waiting for a sale.
