Worth buying? What 300 Steam reviews say.Worth buying? Here’s what 300 Steam reviews actually say.
A beautiful, emotional interactive movie with a hugely branching story where choices matter; it's light on gameplay and has a shaky PC port. Skip it if you want real gameplay or hate QTEs.
Great for
Story-driven players who want a cinematic, replayable branching drama about androids and moral choices
Main risk
Little real gameplay: QTEs, clunky controls and, for some, PC crashes or heavy-handed writing
