I thought I might copy and paste my review, in case people were interested. I gave it three stars. Good effort. :) ------------------------------------------------------------
For the most part I felt this was a beautifully written piece of (highly cathartic and depressing) interactive fiction, but some of the writing did kind of ick me up the wrong way, small things perhaps, but things that should have made an impact on my over all judgment (i.e, the character who's trying to prevent people from jumping using the word "commit suicide" despite the game wanting to take an objective view of the topic, some of the writing towards women and how a lot of the stories you hear tend to be men wanting to jump IN PARTICULAR because of women who have "wronged" them, some unintentionally but still annoying ableism) All in all, I did get a lot out of this experience, and I would recommend it to people looking for something that challenges you to think and feel differently about a topic not dared covered by many, just wish the writing was a bit more polished and went through an another pass beforehand.
