The integration of social elements and commentary on gaming culture adds depth to the gameplay.
- “The im chat was surprisingly effective at making me feel both more and less alone, and I also liked the embedded state-sanctioned fighting game loaded with contemporary quest and in-game currency mechanics as a sly dig at every other mindless game that doesn't have such a strong message or ask such important philosophical questions about freedom, submission, and society.”
- “After getting a taste of the story and game mechanics in this prologue, I'm very excited to see the full game.”
- “The minigame segments are relatively simple, but complexity ramps up slowly throughout the in-game 'days'. The prologue doesn't go as far as revealing every mechanic that will be in the final game, but the ones I saw were fun and interesting enough.”
- “The third mechanic (sorting by numbers) messed me up, but aside from that, it's a really good demo.”
