I thoroughly enjoyed my time spent playing this game. It’s fun to play with others and gives an insight into how your thought process may differ from your friends’. It is streamer friendly, and though I’ve not tested it out myself, it appears to be twitch chat incorporative and allows them to also participate in making choices throughout the game. To complete a run of the game, it took my friends and I about two hours. There’s a collectibles feature that rewards you with certain items according to the answers you chose. I’ve only managed to gain three items so far. I don’t think I’ll be using the “Vegan Cook Book” anytime soon, however.

With that in mind, there is a factor of replayability. Though, it may be more entertaining to do your replays with others.

I also believe there is an implementation of the butterfly effect where your choice in a previous question may have a result on the dialogue used by the narrator or possibly even the questions you are asked.

It does an outstanding job picking at your brain and morality with increasingly torturous and boggling dilemmas. The first question that you start from is the classic trolley problem and then continues onto questions that the developers seem to have conjured in relation to a famous or historic quandary. Every question has its relevant reference pop-up in the bottom left with the option to “mark” it in order to see further into it later if you wanted.

Of course, the game is not all serious. The developers have done an excellent job including humorous aspects. Whether it be little jabs made toward the player by the narrator or one of the increasingly bonkers questions, I, along with my mates, had a great laugh at the absurdity of it all. Not to spoil anything, but the final chapter is a riot with how ludicrous the questions, along with the game functions, become.

Overall, the game is well polished and I would recommend it to those with patience and a craving for surveys. It may be tortuous, though, to some people. It’s not a game for everybody; especially not for [REDACTED] who recently got a job as a [REDACTED] at [REDACTED].

Even years after release, this game is so unpolished it's increasingly irritating to play. Hit registration is horrible and you could have unloaded a full magazine into someone's torso but only 4 shots actually hit. The loading times are atrocious. You will be on a loading screen trying to join a game and to others you are already in, you can hear players running around you and this continues into the plane's flight path. There have been many occurrences where I wasn't able to jump at all because I didn't manage to "load" into the server fast enough and was manually ejected at the end of the map. This game has great potential but it doesn't help the player's experience if settings that the developers have created can be exploited (this counts as cheating) where people can change their vertical sensitivity to make recoil not exist. Some guns can only shoot as fast as you can click (theoretically) and of course players have abused this by making semi-automatic guns into fully-automatic ARs and snipers and it's blatantly obvious when you hear 10 rounds fired from an SKS within that second or someone has managed to shoot an M16A4 faster than the fully automatic M4A4 variant. This game also has a money grab feature where the developers have made an in-game store where players can buy clothing and emotes. These articles of virtual clothing can go for over $10 USD a piece and unfortunately, people buy them! The game had already cost enough as well as damage your sanity just by playing it, no need to have to spend money on some swimming trunks or a Hawaiian shirt for $10.
Overall, this game could be so good if the developers would focus less on pickpocketing users and actually work on improving the gameplay, especially for new users who never stick around due to the hostile and uncooperative game mechanics.

I had bought this game strictly for the multiplayer component but before doing such I ran the campaign. The moment I started I couldn't stop, thankfully not on a workday I played for 9 hours straight. The campaign was so immersive as the main character unravels the lore of the facility. The lore is a fascinating and enjoyable one to play through and truly hilarious at times with all the shenanigans that's going on.

I hadn't had any experience whilst playing where I felt lost or stuck, if just put in more time and examination everything sorts itself out and progess can continue. All puzzles aren't too complex and shouldn't take more than 10 minutes to complete (on the more dificult ones).

The environment is insanely immersive with massive amounts of detail of the smallest degree placed in the most obscure places but keep in mind not everything is part of the decor, some may be clues to either complete the puzzle you're in or more info to add onto the lore. Even though your character is unable to speak you are kept involved with the dialogue exchanged with the third party member within the game, whether it be the casual insult or storyboard information/ instructions.

This game is compatible with both consol controllers and mouse w/ keyboard. Though playing with a controller is fun; it's much more efficient to use mouse w/ keybaord as some puzzles involve quick movements in order to complete them.

I'm not much of a singleplayer kind of gamer but this is one of those rare occasions where a game absorbs you and this is one of the best I've experienced. Multiplayer is a plus. 10/10 fantastic polished game. Recommended for everyone!
