Finished in under an hour but it's priced appropriately and it's a nice way to take a break from other games. The puzzles aren't the most engaging but it's really about the art and the experience. I'd recommend trying out the dev's previous game, Whimsy, which is free and will let you know if you want more or not as this is very much more of that.

It feels like a close future, 25, friends are getting married, having children, making money, becoming adults. Buying suits, life insurance, going to funerals. It's not a long game, in fact, while it talks about this topic and offers some catharsis, it feels really brief, because it is. In the way that life often is. Shine on.

Very nice illustrations, and the ending was a neat surprise. But the puzzles felt rather pointless, and while the game seems to come from a good place, it failed to move me in any way. It feels like a cool thing for the creator to have made, but it had nothing to say to me. Clearly I am in the minority here - and given the price, there is no harm in trying it out.
