View review on Steam

This is a very strange game. Overall it's still interesting enough to recommend, but boy did this game need an editor, which is ironic, as one of the characters in the game also complains about having to use one.

The whole game feels like it's in slow motion, all the dialogue is very slow and there are tons of what are supposed to be moments that you look at the actor's face and appreciate the acting, except with the way the character faces are stylized and mocapped, they just end up looking weird or just sitting there stone faced with their mouth open. I suppose this might be because the developers are spanish, so they might have developed for another language first, and that led to the weird dialogue timing? Not sure. Most of the scenes feel like they take twice as long as they're supposed to- the opening, closing shots and even pauses inbetween character lines.

The game constantly expands onto very minute things that completely do not matter, in the process making the camera linger for an excessive amount of time on nothing. There are entire sections of the game that could have been entirely cut and not only would the game not lose anything for it, it would have been better. It feels like a 90 minute story dragged out to 8 hours, and it probably just is that, as it's supposedly based on a movie (I didn't watch the movie).

The whole last part of the game feels like a weirdly extended epilogue sequence that got added after the story has already ended to give the game some extra length.

Oh and I actually don't think there are any major choices in the game as it seems entirely linear. It really wants to be a David Cage game, down to the UI interactions, but those games, for all their own faults, at least had a lot of branching possibilities, while here there's nothing of the sort.

It's a bizzare experience that while flawed, still kept me interested enough to finish it.
