It’s a text game with ambient sounds, background and buttons. No paywall or signup (yet), it just starts. Tbh, didn’t like it because as with most scripted scenarios it can’t guess how I really feel or react internally to things, but it tries to describe it. I just can’t relate. In the first story, there’s a voice in my head while I’m in a piercing blizzard. I wouldn’t even listen to it and think that I’m losing my mind and need to find shelter fast, instead of looking up, down, speaking to it asking where I am, etc. It doesn’t make sense to me neither realistically nor metaphorically, but YMMW.
Agreed, same with having only one choice at some points of the adventure. You decide to dig out the dark shape only to be asked to dig more and then dig more and dig more once again. I hope it at least measures how fast I click 'dig' again.
Edit: I'm not even gonna finish the first story. The classic trope where you talk to a npc and they have a set of questions that you have to ask them. I don't care about an npc and what they have to say.

same experience, I can't relate to its 1st-person pov at all.
Could something like GPT help?
