I liked Robot Daycare so much, that I had to try this out. It's a new game concept to me. I recognise some of the influences, but they're brought together in a new way.
That many characters sound like a lot to deal with, but mostly paired off and dealt with in various combinations works.
I wonder a lot about the setting, who is behind all of this, and about the character whose grave we see near the beginning. I look forward to more!
