✦ AI summary
Players appreciate the game's compelling narrative about agriculture, community, and loss, with engaging character development and emotional impact during its short 10-30 minute playtime. However, common complaints focus on the brevity feeling too limited, repetitive farming mechanics that feel mindless, progression being blocked when key characters die, and technical issues like glitching clouds that detract from the experience.

A brief game centered on themes of agriculture, community, and loss. The duration of gameplay ranges from 10 to 30 minutes, with an average playtime of 23 minutes reported on Steam. I found the game enjoyable; it is compact and straightforward, yet the narrative is compelling. I experienced genuine sadness when characters perished in the conflict. Additionally, I appreciated the concept of developing my village. It is casual and uncomplicated.3 found this helpful

Very short game play, not much story. Mindless wheat farming, once the builder dies you can't make any more improvements to your town.2 found this helpful

Игра "What We Pretend To Be" – это глубокое погружение в психологическую драму, затрагивающую темы манипуляций, травм и искупления. Сюжет, разворачивающийся вокруг сложных взаимоотношений между главными героями, держит в напряжении с первой и до последней минуты. Особенно хочется отметить проработанных персонажей, каждый из которых имеет свои мотивы и скелеты в шкафу. Визуальный стиль, хоть и выполнен в минималистичном исполнении, отлично передает атмосферу гнетущей тайны и эмоционального напряжения. Музыкальное сопровождение идеально дополняет происходящее на экране, усиливая впечатление от ключевых моментов. Геймплей основан на исследовании окружения, диалогах и принятии решений, от которых напрямую зависит развитие сюжета и концовка. Выбор вариантов ответов требует вдумчивости, ведь каждое слово может иметь последствия. "What We Pretend To Be" – не просто игра, а интерактивная история, заставляющая задуматься о природе человеческих отношений и влиянии прошлого на настоящее. Рекомендуется всем поклонникам сюжетно-ориентированных игр и психологических триллеров.
