    Bad take, ‘you could have not played the game’ is a terrible plot device.

      It’s not a great game. But it’s a great concept piece.

      I think it mirrors the “could have not joined the army, but can’t abandon now” dilemma okay. Like, it’s not great, but if your choices really affected the outcome, it would be easier to miss the point and say you’d be one of the “good ones” in war who always makes the right decisions - even though disobeying orders would also get you in trouble.

      It’s not great as a game, but as an interactive art piece I think it’s okay. Unfortunately it was sold as a game, so I understand why many people hated it.
