(View all)Thank you, [USER=771561]@jclo[/USER], for mentioning that up front. While I did enjoy this game, I was disappointed by the lack of conventional game mechanics. I ended up rushing through a lot of it, assuming I was doing something wrong because every action lead to more exposition.
It was for me. I really enjoyed the atmosphere of it.If you go in knowing it's more of an interactive 3D story, I imagine it'd be a blast.
Fortunately I went in knowing that it's an interactive story and I can't do anything to fudge up the result. Stepping into somebody's home and discovering their life was a nice way to spend an evening on the couch.

Question is where the heck can I preorder it? I know it’ll slip my mind and I’ll forget, but I can’t find a link on their site and nothing shows on the App Store.
I’m assuming it’s just a bit too early and the links haven’t been updated yet?
