A beautiful exploration of memories from a troubled childhood with little happy moments.
You just walk around to trigger memories and find objects. It often wasn't very visible which objects could be picked up and I used a guide for the last one.
Not a big tearjerker, not very deep. Tho you can read things between the lines and into stuff you find. Good voice acting. Decent game for the price imo.
(It's very short, I was just idling to get all the trading cards)
[i]More cozy and combat-free recommendations?
