First of all, this is basically a visual novel. You can't really fail or get stuck. If you've played something like Higurashi, it's much closer to that than, say, Disco Elysium.

I initially found this to be quite interesting however I will not recommend it as I'm now 5 hours into the game and cannot progress the game any further. The game simply locks me in an infinite animation loop during the dissolution phase with the Director and nothing happens. Restarting doesn't work, changing the settings doesn't work and I cannot refund it because I've exceeded the 2 hour limit.
