Game Review
In a nutshell, this game revolves around you making decisions that test your moral consciousness in the perspective of the family breadwinner, in the game's fictional corrupt dystopian capitalist-based world.
Serious talk, I'd rate this a 4/10 in terms of gameplay experience in it's alpha stages right now, in my experiences, reading the texts in the game can be a bit tiring, the story is a little bit forced, the graphics are mediocre, compared to most other games it isn't very fun to play atm.
This all being said, the story and concept of the game is not bad. "A man struggling to make ends meet gets a job as a detective from a notorious company in a dystopian capitalist world".
I'm acquainted with the maker of this game and having played a bit of it, I can say that while its not exactly fun rn as its in its alpha stages, it is a game full of potential with its unique gameplay experience it provides.
