played this on steam and left a review but came here to leave one too
i dont get the story, i dont get what happened and i dont get the message but it felt life changing and beautiful
whatever the goal of this game is, it resonates with me as someone with OCD symptoms and all the characters "sickness" felt like my brain at all times but Asya saw it so differently from the others. While I can't understand her perspective on things, I can at the same time.The endless ramblings, the pondering of the universe, the numbers and patterns... The guilt Asya always feels... I get it... I get it.. I love it yet resent it in real life and I feel this game understands that.. The world is wonderful, beautiful, full of small lovely moments but it's also cruel.. It takes and takes. Humans take.But they also give. The earth also gives.I love it despite it's unfairness. I can't say I know what Z.A.T.O itself stands for, but it's beautiful.
And one day we all become part of the beauty known as the stars. We are beautiful.
