Good use of theming. Visually and thematically consistent. Pretty depressing and creepy. I enjoyed it. When waiting for my opponents to choose I went between wanting them to move faster and wanting more time to memorize the answers. One small issue is playing with one player and no CPUs it felt like I won after the first round. Still lots of fun.
This game is pretty visceral. The music, imagery, and theming blend to create this darkly strange feeling that sat in my gut while playing. I was pretty uncomfortable the whole time, which I think was the point. I managed to kill myself with the first shot even though I "won" the rounds before. It was kind of shocking, especially because I had my headphones up just a bit too much lol. I also appreciated the trigger warnings at the beginning. It didn't bother me personally, but I know people like my wife would enjoy knowing the content before playing. Overall, super solid. Great job!
It feels intense in a way that few other entries I've seen are. It does feel obvious, but it does so with excellent, chilling presentation.
