I can’t give this game enough praise. For its emotion, for its depth, and for what I assume is an accurate portrayal of modern teenage life with some obvious unique situations for dramatic effect. It’s the one of the best Telltale games that Telltale didn’t make.
I played the first half an hour of this game about a year ago and it didn’t immediately click with me. I’m at an age where the tropes of high school dramas cause me to constantly eye roll, but I am certainly happy I returned to give the game another try. If you feel the same way, hear me out and stick with it. You may continue to eye roll at some ridiculous behaviour as I did, but it’s worth your time.
I don’t want to speak too much about the plot or the gameplay itself, because I think the discovery of its unique features is important to the experience.
It’s got a great soundtrack that even made the transition from the game to my Spotify Playlist, where normally video game scores are reserved for very specific moods.
If you love a good episodic adventure, it’s one of the best out there right now.
