The verdict
A very short, cheap Flash-style shadow-clone puzzle platformer with a sad love story and nice music. Skip it at full price, or if you've played the free "The Company of Myself".
Great for
Players wanting a one-hour, dirt-cheap puzzle platformer with a melancholic atmosphere and trading cards
Main risk
It's a derivative, very short Flash-quality game that feels overpriced beyond pennies
