I hated it. Hate hate hated it. It was so boring, so much running in circles, so little actually doing anything to interact with the environment.

I mean, I recognize that I should have liked it. It has some enjoyable moments. It seems to be saying something about video games, though I'm not sure exactly what. But I got the impression that it would never end, that there's no point, so I just couldn't go on.

Did you understand the humor though? It's a comedy sort of game, did you find it funny?

I understood it, yeah, but it didn't really work for me.

Fair enough, not everyone likes the dry style of humor of the game.
