One of the better analog, 4th wall breaking creepy games I've played recently. Would you like to befriend a desperate, cloying AI program? No? Too bad, you're friends now whether you like or not.

The Undertale of Analog Horror.

Pros:
- Lots of surprises I was not expecting.
- Genuinely creepy atmosphere despite not really being a horror game.
- A deeper story once you piece it together, not EXACTLY sure what's going on, but I want to figure it out
- Funnier than I was counting on.
- The sound design is weirdly compelling, you can hear the ROOM TONE of your character sitting at the computer! WHAT.
- Check your Documents folder.

Cons:
- I don't like it when technology tries to be my friend. Unrelated to the game, but I don't want my microwave telling him to have a nice day. Getting a little too familiar, robot.
- Text adventure part can get a little tedious, like an actual text adventure.
- I get why it's only playable with keyboard, but the RPG section would have played better with controller, especially the blocking mechanic.
- Last section is very undercooked, feels like the shift starts and then it's over.
- No ability to speed up dialogue, since there's a lot of it.
