I like the visual style of the game, it really builds the atmosphere. The stories the characters tell really bring them to life.

I only played for about 10 minutes and already got bored so much that I stopped. All I got to do is click myself through a dialogue, I didn't even read fully in the end, because that would probably have taken me even longer. There was like 1 choice up until that and the dialogue wasn't any meaningfull at all, just random chit-chat with a stranger in a car. Talking about her home, her dog, her job... Given the developer says the game only lasts 1 or 2 hours, I do not expect much more. The atmosphere through music and image style is great, but I do neither feel playing a fun game or reading an interesting story. It's only annoying to click yourself through that meaningless dialogue.
