AMAZING deconstruction of various forms of misogyny in society; no themes are left untread imo-even the toxic masculinity side is mention, and in a tactful way that doesn't make the girl feel responsible for staying with him out of pity. Afterall, even if there is reasoning, pity inducing reasoning behind the way he is, he still has had and has free will. He has still hurt her and will likely continue to do so. And it's not her responsibility to deal with that.
I also liked the use of the "reprogramming" metaphor for what would otherwise be manipulation and abuse. The changes in code being the degradation and erasure of her sense of self, sense of choice. The clear pain in the resets likely representing abuse especially.
All in all a great tool to spread awareness of the many ways misogyny affects the lives of women that I think anyone would benefit from playing through. Great game, great use of the medium, great message.
Oh yeah I think those more enthusiastic about greek myth than me(as unfortunately i am not) would appreciate the usage of the tale to critique misogyny too!
Very chilling and thought provoking game!
