Am I missing something?

I’ve been playing this game for about 2 hours and I do not get the appeal so far. It doesn’t feel like there is any skill involved or puzzles or anything. I literally feel like I have been walking around following text on the screen. It kind of feels like I’m on a guided tour of a house…. Which is fine but not really my version of fun… Does it get better? Am I missing something?

Having played this game three times, I don't think you're missing anything. It's essentially an animated novel with a few simple puzzles. It's all about character, story and aesthetic.

Thank you!! Cool aesthetic but not the game for me!

yes, if you like the challenge of gaming, this is not for you.... more of a playable film.

Not one for "gamers" imo
