Very moody
I played it all the way through. Though the puzzles were interesting they weren't mind-blowing, though the adventure setting was ominous and intriguing it wasn't anything terribly new or exciting and didn't terribly capture the theme in my opinion.
Instead the element I liked the most was the way the narrative was weaved into the game and I felt like I was exploring a tiny fraction of a very complicated situation.
It was a very well rounded experience, it did what it set out to do and did it well! A bite-sized morsel of adventure with a satisfying ending.
A couple of things I noticed a little awry though: in the anger level the note at the end says "trust si such a fragile thing". Certain objects/characters don't logically change their responses after you fulfil certain criteria, such as locks on the anger level and the logic puzzle level still saying they're locked even though I just unlocked them and can move freely through them, as well as the depression man still wanting a poem even after I gave him one.
Those small things however did nothing to detract from this heartfelt, honest and moving piece of work. I really enjoyed it, well done!
I lost mah pen, though.
