A bit hard to get into at first but, after the initial hurdles of figuring out what to do and how to navigate the OS, it's a HILARIOUS and incredibly fun experience. Highly recommend to anyone who's into unique puzzlers, emergent storytelling, and Y2K nostalgia.

There is quite literally nothing else like this game. The 90's internet aesthetic and atmosphere was done so perfectly. Not only is this game just fun to explore, it has a great story to go with it. It's such a shame the sequel got cancelled. I hope there is more in the future to expand on this unique subgenre of games. My only complaint is that there isn't more.

girl help i became highly invested in fake internet drama. girl hELP I AM CONSIDERING TRYING TO NO LIFE IT. 10/10 game, I've had it for less than a week and it's genuinely become one of my favorite games SO fast.

The story is amazing and the charm of this game is unparalleled. I completely bet you can play this game and forget you're playing a game. Every single character FEELS like a different person, it's kind of awesome. The lore of the game is equally charming, as well as the music, which is emphasized by the sheer amount of different early 2000s styles it emulates lovingly. There's entire videos hours long where people document the different music genres in-game and link them up to real actual genres now, it's wonderful actually. The concept of being a moderator on this platform instead of a simple user gives a lot of depth to the world, and lets you be much more immersed in the realistic ways you can't really interact with the "people." The fact that this game has a built in modding section is really wonderful, despite the fanbase being rather small for the quality you get in the game. Of its many positives, the negatives are as follow: The quests get repetitive. There's only like really 3 different ways you can solve a problem here, which is kind of sad for a game involving an entire wide web. Also the end-game sort of section has a lot of flashing lights, fair warning for people wi…
