The game was very deep, at first it seemed like a puzzle, but then I really looked at it from a different angle, and after the finale even more so. now when my life comes to a standstill, I try to look at things differently and not give up in this fight.

After hearing about the length of the game (which is relatively short), I was hesitant to pay £15 for it on PlayStation. But oh wow, after completing it within a single evening, I can confidently say that I couldn't be happier with choosing to do so. This ending sequence will stick with me more than most AAA games will ever do.

It's the most cinematic ending i have ever seen in video game. Even rdr2 can't compete

This game is the best game ive ever played. especially considering that when i first played it i was going through IRL what the game was trying to teach you about. 10/10 Never will come across anything like it

video of a bygone era

When i played i thought it was a funny and dumb game but i saw something different and i learned in this game to... "See the problems in other perspectives..."

I was able to completely transcript this! If you'd like: “Hello my name is Dr. Glenn Pierce, and by now you may have realized that all of this has happened exactly the way it was supposed to. You see, everyone that comes to the Institute does so because they are no longer in control of something important to them. But, more often than not, the problem is not that the problems we face can’t be solved: The problem is that we become so afraid of failure that we refuse to see our problems from a new perspective. And so we do the same things again and again and again. And therein, of course, we find exactly the failure we were looking for. Your life will always be a struggle and you will always have problems. But today, you had the chance to see things differently. Even though it meant facing obstacles that seemed impossible at first, you thought outside the box - and you overcame them. Because you saw things from every angle, you understood them for what they really were. Because you kept moving forward, no matter how far off the path you were told you were headed, or how unexpected it became…you found your way. In a few minutes you will be back in the real world, and some part of you will say none of this was real - so how could it really have meant anything? But - just like the power of perspective itself - it will have been as real as you believed it to be. All you’ve got to do is wake up.”

This game turned into an actual therapy session at the end

To the people who feel they cheated or the lessons were lessened because they looked up a guide or watched a walkthrough: You thought outside the box. You asked for help when you needed it. That is not a failure. That is an essential part of life. Nobody reaches success alone.

I was actually not prepared to be hit by such a strong gut punch at the end of this game, legit made me tear up. Everything suddenly made sense and a lot of people could learn from this deep life lesson.

The words from Dr. Glenn Pierce are so amazing, his soothing voice, and the fact he sounds so proud of us. No matter what, we always went out of the room, and we survived. Even when the computer voice, and Pierce himself told us that everything was bad, and there was no solution, we found a way out of every room, it took us time, maybe a few tries, but we learnt, and we refused to stay in the locked room helpless. We could have stay in the cloud movie room, calm, nice, there was a soda. But we didn't. We didn't accept monotony either. You are amazing.

This would make the best alarm clock for your phone.

I started this game because of the interesting puzzles with optical illusions and didn't expect that it would have such a beautiful and perfectly fitting gameplay message. In the end, I just cried because it touched me deep into my soul. God what an amazing game

The most influential game I've played in my entire life. I was crying like a newborn baby the whole time this was taking place, and it was liberating. Brought me back to the time where my whitespace was so easily malleable without even my knowledge of it.

I love this game, i love it so much i beat it like 6 times and have every achievement, that is what moveing forward is all about you can accomplish it, youll get past it, i myself is having problems till this day, im 22 and still struggle a lot, idk what to do with my life still and finally just started for job training, im scared of change, when i am scared and worry to much still i come back here, to motivate me, i need lots of help, im shy, scared and not easily motivated about anything, im more of a gamer, so playing this really helps me, ik im not the only one but i still feel like i am, still working for very little and very little money help is what i need im afraid of asking for it, in the game glenn is right i am so afraid of failure that i dont want to believe it, its all i think about tbh, i needed this, thanks for the inspiration, If anybody wants to talk to me about what you may want to talk about, im here❤

Jaw dropped when I heard this endint

I played this game when I was extremely depressed even now I learn so much from it. The "wake up" And the cut to the title was beautiful. Showcases your struggles at the very end and makes you move forward.

I’m glad I found this

im so happy w this discovery

God damn i love this game so much. Every time I see this ending, it brings tears to my eyes, about to cry. This game will forever be a masterpiece

bro the music so loud i cant hear him

One of the best endings with the most mind-blowing quotes

Ngl, this gives off huge vibes from "The Truman Show" ending. Even the soundtrack and what the guy is saying sounds similar.

Truly the best game i've ever played

When I played this game for the first time, I was in such a bad mental state, and I found no joy in life anymore. But somehow, this game itself changed my perspective on everything, and I found light in what was so bad. I couldn't believe it but it was true. A masterpiece of an ending

Glen is my gaming therapist

You will find a way, It may be hard. It may be easy. But you will find a way.

I cried the first time i heard this message, Such a quotable and deep message that just... Hits so hard for everyone that has heard it. This is a 10/10 game, best wishes and praises to the devs, spectacular.

All that back and forth just to get him with a Scorch Shot Truly the pinnacle of Pyro v. Pyro

I want doctor Glenn Pierce to narrate my life.

Close call !

I had a completely different ending 😂

One of the most unexpected, deeply emotional experiences I've gotten from a game. 10/10 would wake up again.

People with a heart of stone this is boring im turning this off People with a heart of gold. 😭

I was writing this comment and i shed a tear for some reason Manny pls heart this post

This speech is what I heard At the end of the game, and I'm proud of it.❤

I just finished this game for the first time and the ending absolutely blew me away. All of the crazy messages that happen throughout your journey make you think there will be some sort of twist. But in the end it's just an important life lesson that hits hard. Fantastic game! ❤

This could very well be what you hear at the end of your life.

when i heard that part *1:36* it really maked me drop a tear

I JUST COMPLETED PLAYING THE GAME AND IT WAS A AMAZING 🥲🥲

went in solving puzzles, came out solving the meaning of life itself

Bro has never watched a pubg replay before they all look like no recoil...and recoil doesn't even matter on a bolt action

LOL, I play with Manny all the damn time. He's just very very good. Easily the best player of our little crew and an all around nice person. He doesn't cheat, period. He is VERY flattered that you reported him though.

Dawg I just wanted to play something while mortal kombat 11 downloaded… Ended up sobbing at these credits, stopped masturbating and overall found myself becoming a calmer person. A true masterpiece definitely one of my top 5 games of all time. Thank you to who ever made this

Great song, awful spazzy video

If only they buffed it...

the ending and credits legit gave me goosebumps it's that good!... and my god, the end game credits music is so fly. it is the only game i didnt skip the credits 😂👌

And yet it still is I my opinion

This 3 minutes and a half literally saved my life. I will always be in debt with this devs.

The game touches many because it's words of encouragement, which these days are far and inbetween.
