The story is a powerful, emotionally impactful narrative centered on a woman's first day in federal prison, presented more like an interactive documentary than a traditional game. While praised for its storytelling approach, visual style, and immersive design, some users note the story leaves out key details—such as the protagonist's arrest reason—and features slow pacing with limited gameplay. Overall, it is regarded as a challenging, brave, and meaningful story that engages players despite its minimal interactivity.
“The first chapter was honestly so beautiful and such a powerful story.”
“So impressed to see where chapter 1 ended up–the visual style and storytelling are remarkable, and I am eager to see the rest of the chapters as they come out.”
“It was so eerie and uncomfortable but I could not stop playing, which speaks to how good the game design and story arc is.”
“The story is about someone's life in federal prison and what they go through on day one. It has very little gameplay and feels more like an interactive documentary. While the storytelling of life inside federal prison is good, it never goes into details or mentions what the protagonist was even arrested for. This feels incomplete as a part one, but hopefully more backstory will be revealed.”
“She was incarcerated for a reason, and the reason that turned her life upside down is probably an important detail for her story. This detail isn't mentioned at all in the game (after a quick web search, it was found she was sentenced for tax fraud).”
“Her story is narrated and voiced by Evie Litwok herself, even though the voice acting isn't the greatest.”
