So my review for this game would be as close as I'm feeling after finishing 8 routes.
Spoiler alert! Like really spoiler!
At the beginning I was having red flags all over because of the development of their relationship, fast, intense, passionate, but childish and two broken people with issues that needed healing. Very possessive from both sides.
I ended up on the victim route first and I have to say it hit me hard, but there was hope that at some point Isaac could get away from it, Hopes for a happy ending but then again, that wouldn't be realistic given how the relationship started.
It broke my heart basically, then on the abuser side of the routes.
I couldn't bear myself to be like that, which i ended up skipping a lot of it on repetitive paths because it felt wrong, which is amazing because the fact that both scenarios could make me feel different things so opposite to each other was a shock.
Every ending was a constant twist and turn but made it through.
My favorite ending is definitely the special one, the only one where we get to see la vie en rose, get to see the first step that both characters should take to have a healthy relationship in the maybe, in the future, mature and ready to support each other, not caging each other.
If I could describe this game would be "art"
Because it makes you feel, wonder about situations and relationships in general.
I wouldn't say I wanna play it again because it is a one time feeling to actually savour what was intended to show.
It leaves me with a bittersweet feeling and I couldn't ask for more, amazing writing and execution.
Thank you for providing a sensory overload!
