I mean, really impressive. What starts out as what seems like a simple puzzle-game becomes something much more. Way to nail the theme right on the head! \r\rWithout giving any spoilers: I feel that the way the narrative is timed is just perfect. It pulls you with it just in time to prevent boredom. Also, starting from what seems like an ordered room, going through more chaotic and patchy rooms and finally ending to something that gives a bright ray of hope is very, very touching.\r\rWell done."},{"author_name":"Korwegian","author_uid":"31877","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 2:39am","epoch":1398738840,"text":"Who was that therapist's teacher?

Simplistic visuals work well in the game's favor and the audio work is fantastic for setting the mood. Narrative was great but didn't have me hooked initially.
