Not really a thumbs up, moreso a "I wish there was a neutral button rather than just yes and no". I'm not sure who exactly I'd recommend it to, is the thing. It's got a rather nice visual style, as well as a rather fine run-down-contemporary setting. Seems to be inspired by Canada, feels more European than you usually get to see in games, giving off a bit of a Disco Elysium vibe that way.

Otherwise it's not bad, and I've certainly played worse modern point-and-clickers. It doesn't have an insufferable protagonist, which is a welcome exception. But it's just not quite charming enough, deep enough or memorable ebough, and might be a bit on the frustrating side when it comes to some of the puzzles.

I guess that it's a step above most of the genre output from the last decade or so, but it doesn't reach "yes, do absolutely play it" level of some of the classics of the genre.
