quick spoiler-free mini-review: I found it incredibly frustrating. Would not recommend. I should say more: The production quality is high. There is a weird scifi story here told in a voice that is less cartoonish and seems at least on the face of it more interesting than many sci fi puzzlers. There are several US phone numbers you have to call. I had to make a dozen phone calls in order to try to hear things that were very rapid, or try things in order to make them work. There were many places where it felt like there was never going to be one clear answer but where we just had to try a lot of different things until we found the one that worked. This kind of thing tends to be the biggest trigger of my frustration -- puzzles where there are many candidate potential solutions which rely on trial and error -- think trying to guess your friends password by trying dozens of variations on words you think they might be likely to use. There were also many times when it was a real struggle to hear or see text, in an unpleasant way. In the end I finally gave up when the game seemed to want me to do yet one more of these trial and error passwords and also seemed to want me to do quite a bit of brute force work in my attempts. Before I gave up I tried to find hints for the game, which just led to more frustration, since their are (inexplicably) no hints for the game other than a chaotic facebook group, which was some help but was frustrating to use. This was the straw that broke the camel's back. Bottom line, there is some good content here, and some hard work that went into making this, and I would have liked to be able to enjoy the story, but the trial and error brute force struggle killed it for me.

@@Dillbop I think we might have enjoyed it more if we had not expected it to finish in a couple of hours. expectations have a major effect on these things.
