A game of horrible horrible betrayal and heartbreak or a game where you both know how it ends and neither of you wants to abandon the other so you argue longer than you played through the puzzles about who gets the privilege of sacrificing themself. I love the replayability of being able to switch from your original role and still get an entirely new experience during a second playthrough. 7/10

Played the game with the wife. Had a fight because I lost my temper. We eventually beat the game. Might have affected the future of our marriage, but had fun regardless. 10/10 would recommend.
