March Assassination #4

It seems that, coincidentally, I decided to play a game about mental illness literally just after beating a game about mental illness.

What this game and Hellblade have in common is that both are supposed to be quite good reflections of different mental conditions - psychosis for Hellblade, dissociative depression here. The way they present it, tho, are super different. Where Hellblade maintains high fidelity in sound and visuals throughout its narrative, milk inside a bag of milk inside a bag of milk goes for low fidelity visuals and sounds. But if you think that makes the experience more comfortable and less eerie, think again - this is short, but is no walk in the park. It stops short of jumpscares, but it will have some sudden tense imagery and sounds that left me extremely uncomfortable.

I don't know how I think about this game. It was a short and intense experience, and while it probably won't last as long as Hellblade on my mind, it's definitely something special. I'll try to play the sequel tomorrow because, seriously, it's a bit too much for me to take both games on the same evening.
