⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Tightness may not be everything when it comes to short stories, but sometimes you come across something so lean and focused on all fronts that you begin to question that assertion. Remember the Forefathers knows what it wants to say and be to such an extent it can bluntly and confidently show its hand early on and still grab its readers for its whole runtime. A melancholic tale that blooms at the perfect pace is supported by just the right amount of audiovisual elements to make the greatest impact. Critiques are few and include a strangely placed UI and one sound effect that's too loud for the rest of the soundscape. Minor inconveniences detract very little from a package that, though short, achieves everything it wants.
