What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players praise the game's philosophical depth, particularly its exploration of Nietzschean themes like self-overcoming, individualism, and rejection of societal morals, with the narrative and concept executed thoughtfully to provoke reflection. The main complaint is the brevity—at around 7 minutes for its price point, some feel it's too short and could benefit from more content or padding, though others appreciate the concise delivery of its intellectual ideas.
I liked the narrative, it seems to be in parallel with Friedrich Nietzsche's philosophy, or the idea of self-overcoming, individuality, morals based on perspective, god is dead, and personal growth. I am not very familiar with the subject so forgive me if I don't interpret the game correctly, although it reminds me of the Magnus series from Sons of Welder, the whole idea of awakening and gaining true self-awareness, and finally making your own choices. The underlying subject of the game seems to the the criticism of the society and its established pillars, as well as inner monologue and pushing past your self-identity that was suppressed by the subjective morals gained from the education. The only reason the review is negative is because the game is like 7 minutes, I don't mind short games but I think it's reasonable to expect a little more for $5, try to aim for about 1 hour at least, I think you will find many games with a similar experience, but with 5-10 times more content, especially if you doing a linear visual novel. There were some "choices" in the game, but they didn't have any additional content, just there to support that context that you don't actually have a choice, a…15 found this helpful
MAN I REALLY LOVE THIS GAME. THIS GAME IS PROBABLY THE BEST $1 I COULD'VE EVER SPENT. IF ANYONE NEEDS TO KNOW IF THE GAME IS WORTH IT, IT TOTALLY IS AND I WOULD RECOMMEND IT 100%. LOVE THE OWNERS AND HOPE TO BECOME A CHICKEN MYSELF ONE DAY.3 found this helpful

[h1] A short 12 minute story, though an interesting one.[/h1] I personally felt as though it may have been a too bit rushed for my liking. It's too fast paced for me to truly care about the story and the world, but I can appreciate the symbolism. I do agree with the more philosophical elements of the story however: [spoiler] Particularly, about the idea of the Übermensch. (Referred to as Overman in-game) When exactly does the '' Will to power '' start and vanity begin? The very idea of power itself is determined predominantly by society itself, as power is your ability to make others do as you wish. Moreover, does it even matter? You'll be dead regardless of in rags or riches. The system doesn't care though. The system is immortal, it says it shall live forever, dancing to the tune of misery for numbers. One could argue that the Übermensch, is not going against the system but instead benefitting it further than before. After all, absent of your morality, your limitations, your weaknesses, you make for a perfect worker. [/spoiler]1 found this helpful

games mad short for 3 euros the concept is executed quite well though reminds me of a teachers lecture as in they explain to you a topic one singular time and expect you to understand the topic, which makes you think about the ideas in the game it isnt a necessarily good nor bad thing, although it could be improved if filler content were to be added. take noexistencen of you and me, the game cost 2 euros and you could see that the devs put a lot more thought into it, as in the themes and random pauses from the game made you think about the concept of the entire game which it was based off of, might be a me problem though due to me being new to vns and uhhh friedrich niche spoke of this (due to the theme of the übermensch or the overmen in the game as they are called) the idea behind the game isnt necessarily bad its just that it feels a tad bit too short for 3 euros edit: some parts of the game felt ai written as in the tone/personality of the text changing as if a different person had written the script, which in the eyes of most is a sign of bad game design and such, its better to have a poorly written visual novel than an ai written visual novel1 found this helpful
