A morte não é má, tampouco uma sentença divina
I can understand why some reviews found this game insulting, given its blatant showcases of self-harm and images that, at least for me, were provocative and cringeworthy. Still, I do appreciate the symbolism shown such as having to take care of what was considered 'tasks'--tasks which in short, a significant part of what depression is. I like that it felt like the character’s feet were dragging, since it made me somewhat absorbed and present with what was going on around. Another thing was the figurative idea that while another door opened, another closed, which meant repeatedly moving room to room, again and again, feeling trapped and stuck in a loop. Plus, having the constant reminder of time through ticks of the clock, down to acknowledging of seeing nothing but death on TV--to having everything black and white with no color--I mean these things I think were portrayed in an effective manner, but I found myself having trouble with truly immersing myself along due to the lack of background story. Not to say the game was bad per se, but it was certainly a short and relatable experience. I'd say try it out and explore its themes.

It was definitely depressing watching my 3080Ti overheat and sound ready to blast off.
Felt like playing League of Legends over and over again.
This is currently my everyday struggle despite therapy, medication, self help. Depression isn't something to take lightly or ignore if your loved one even hints at needing help to survive but, sadly, most people are in denial, don't like those "icky negative downer thoughts", or are too busy with their own everyday life that they don't really pay attention to the signs. 10/10 for suicide awareness

I have struggled with severe depression ever since I was a child, which was over 50 years ago. I bought this game thinking there would be something relatable here. There's not. It's just stupid. The game isn't really a game, but more like a 20-minute Walking Sim. I read several of the other reviews, just to see what others had to say. In the long run, I don't see any point in me repeating what has already been said. Instead, I will provide this link to Snort Cannon's awesome review, which nails my thoughts perfectly. https://steamcommunity.com/id/snortcannon/recommended/881920/ .
burada da good end alamadım amk
Очень хорошая игра, конечно сюда ввели кучу критики, но я считаю что серьёзно критиковать её невозможно. Поскольку сделана она молодым автором энтузиастом, и это единственный проект на данный момент способный погрузить в будни человека с тяжёлой депрессией. Далее можно сказать, что мало кто увидит в этой игре, что-то действительно ценное. Зато те кто действительно побывали в депрессии, и не дай бог год или более, вполне могут словить сильную настольгию по тем временам, либо попытаться облегчить имеющуюся боль, через страдания персонажа. Если вы пробуете этот продукт в надежде излечиться, то к сожалению вы явно делаете что-то не так, ведь игра будет лишь временным пластырем, который явно не решит ваши проблемы, так что от чувства одиночества, пустоты, и ничтожности это явно вам не поможет, но я надеюсь вы найдёте способ, залечить свои душевные раны.
