Perfect

Unfortunately, I did not enjoy this game as much as i thought i was going to. There is very little direction and I had to watch a walkthrough on Youtube to figure out what I was supposed to be doing. The storyline also makes little sense, not much detail seems to be put into the backstory and its rather cryptic as to why we are there in the first place. I had pretty high hopes based off the reviews but its clear this game just isn't finished. I do, however, like the lighting and the general atmosphere of the game along with the ambient sound. That part is well done.

Garbage plot with good graphics barley any explanation. No horror feel to the game. This game is a sorry excuse for a horror game.

Игра 'Understanding, The Game' – это уникальный опыт, который заставляет зрителя по-новому взглянуть на мир и свои собственные убеждения. Это не просто развлечение, а скорее интерактивная медитация, которая постепенно подводит к глубинным вопросам о восприятии реальности, смысле жизни и природе человеческого сознания. Визуальный стиль, хотя и минималистичен, работает на создание атмосферы созерцательности и концентрации. Геймплей намеренно избегает привычных механик, делая акцент на рефлексию и самоанализ. Игроку предоставляется возможность исследовать абстрактные концепции и идеи через серию метафорических ситуаций, каждая из которых оставляет после себя ощущение незавершенности и побуждает к дальнейшим размышлениям. Несмотря на отсутствие четкого нарратива, игра обладает мощным эмоциональным воздействием. Она вызывает чувство умиротворения, любопытства и даже легкой тревоги, заставляя задуматься о том, что обычно остается за пределами повседневного внимания. 'Understanding, The Game' – это не для всех, но для тех, кто готов к неспешному и вдумчивому путешествию вглубь себя, она может стать по-настоящему откровением. Рекомендую тем, кто ценит необычные и экспериментальные проект…

Can't recommend based on issues with "wide" monitors. I played maybe 10 minutes into the game and already having issues not being able to click on text or other things. Looks like it could have potential, so hoping that we will see some updates in the future...

I mean, this is a demo to a game that's no longer in development, so...I don't personally feel like it's worth your time, even being free. It looks okay, if super red/orange. If I didn't read the About This Game section I wouldn't really understand the story because the game doesn't do a good job telling it.
