A strong solo effort by Russian artist Artyom Trakhanov. The game's an old school choose-your-own-adventure, with a handy feature to quickly zip through paths already taken to find all the endings, and it takes about an hour to explore every path.

The story uses second-person narration to follow a hapless delivery driver having the worst day of their life. The writing's strong and describes the scenes in vivid, yet concise language punctuated by quick trips into your character's mind for extra effect. The dialogue sounds pretty natural, too, despite the author speaking ESL, but there are a few strange word choices. The whole story just kinda... pops. It's great!

So's the art, which showcases the author's graphic novel and game design chops. It's done in an MS Paint pixel style, and uses looping animation, reveals, quick changes, and overlaid panels throughout each scene, with the occasional sound effect thrown in for good measure. There's some real cinematic flair to this game!

If you're often disappointed by games' amateurish writing and hold Disco Elysium to be a high water mark of the medium, you'll dig this. If you like comic books with gritty, adult stories, you'll dig this. If you're on the fence and are the type of person that pays money for stories printed on paper, you'll dig this.
