i can definitely see why this game was important. definitely, the mechanic by which you explore the main story is cool ans the rules that govern it in the story are all really cool and consistent. i can see how this would have influenced other works.

but in terms of writing this is an absolute mess that doesn't hold up lmao. the main story is alright, but most of the last 10 hours is like a fanfiction that was glued on to the main story, where the author tried jamming a billion new things into the story to create a hilarious mixed bag of clever things and insultingly dumb things.

there's also a few things that happen at the end that are quite gross and morally questionable.

can i recommend this? not sure. depends on how much you can enjoy poor writing. I enjoyed playing around with the map in the main story, and was in absolute amazement watching that hilarious true ending unfold.

up to you. i'll put a not recommend just because
