Personally, I like the concept, the time loop. Every new choice you make could help you unravel more parts of the story, thus unlocking more options / interactions. This is a big plus for me and possibly a reason why I like the concept. The execution however, is not entirely smooth.

*Gameplay:*
While there are many paths you can go with, the issue I have is that the paths feel very restricted. Basically, you need not only follow the path, but that path seems to be hidden and you can only see it if the circumstances are set up in a specific steps. This feels correct while typing this, but in reality while playing the game it felt very limiting and when I exhausted all options I had in mind that I was allowed to do, I, myself, was also stuck in a loop trying to brute force for a new path, trying to learn something new, which was rather frustrating at times, especially when doing the paths I have visited 10 times already - hearing all the dialogues again and again (you can skip them to ease the pain).

While some things on the gameplay could be improved, I would say I generally liked it. With every new step and new dialogue options towards the end, it always unlocked a new part of the story and I began theorizing about it all over again.
Major plus for multiple possibilities (that may not lead anywhere) but were still part of the game.

*Dialogues / voices:*
Dialogues were great, they help a lot to dive in to the story and the situation. The acting felt real and played a huge part in the game. There were a few moments where I told myself that "I could use a [dialogue option] for this specific case because I think it makes sense and would help me", but I understand it'd be very difficult to have the game prepared for everything that a player can think of.

*Graphics:*
I had no issues with graphics - no need for super-real graphics in this type of game anyway.

*Story:*
The story was very intersting from the beginning. At the very start, you know nothing and you need to play multiple iterations (loops) to understand more, until you understand the story as a whole. This in itself felt very nice throghout the game and has a major role in the game. However, I did not like one of the revelations in the story, which felt kinda bitter, but I suppose that's how it was designedl (major end-game spoiler ahead!) ------ the fact that the husband is his wife's brother.

Overall, I did enjoy the game, and I would recommend you to at least try it if you feel interested in it.

Update 25.11.2021: After 2300 hours of playing this game, ... ... I still suck

I don' t usually post reviews for games but Rocket League really deserves it, because It' s a game like no other.
The game is easy to learn, but hard to master.
The ways you can hit the ball are infinite.

Graphics are really awesome and fit to environment.
I listen to my own music on YT but I heard sounds and music are really awesome too. ( lol )

Many sports to play!
A lot of maps!
Competetive or casual play!
Tournaments!
1v1 , 2v2 , 3v3 , 4v4 !

There is A LOT more to it and I would be writing this review all day if I were to write it all.
So I am gonna stop here and .. well .. let me tell you this one last thing.

Cars Customization!

If you are thinking about buying this game, I' ve got great news for you.
You don' t need to think anymore!

Hope my review helps.

10/10
