Just finished this game yesterday and provided a review giving it a 4/5.

I normally would wait for a sale for something like this, but it's a Canadian game, had to support it. :D

I especially liked how there are many different elements to this game. Story, exploration, puzzles, etc. The length is decent enough for today standards, I of course wish it was longer, but I doubt it would ever be long enough. :P

Only major issue I had with the game are the controls in certain circumstances, and the dreaded circular menu. The circular menu becomes a major issue with you have lots of documents that you are try to cycle through. I understand these two issues are related to being cross platform with PS4 and Xbox, I don't think it's the game's fault.

Anyway, just curious if anyone knows if there is by chance DLCs coming down the line? Have we seen the last of Carl?

Thank you for the review, I'm glad you liked the game :)

The document section in the menu is indeed a pain in the a** sometimes, this is something we should fix in a future update. As for the DLCs, I can't say anything for now... Stay tuned for news to come :D

Thanks for the reply!

I look forward to what you guys come up with in the future. I will most certainly stay tuned. :)
weeks after playing and I still think of driving in that truck and listening to that plaintive sound track, going to reboot the game and just drive about for awhile :P
Amazing game with great narration and atmosphere, one of the best adventure games i have played in a long time and the music is fantastic.

This game is a gem if anyone loved a game like "Firewatch" you will love this game it has a even cooler setting with the cold winter. I wish more games would manage to grab a atmosphere like this and or take place in Canada.

This game is like Firewatch mixed with movies like Fargo & A Simple Plan


There is some room for improvement though the controls are definitely not very intuitive, throughout the game it doesnt feel like you just learn to get out of the journals/inventory quick enough, toggling the diary/journal pages having their own keyboard stroke isnt very good and i hope with your future updates you can fix the bugs and make the controls a bit more flexible.

The game also needs a indicator for the unread documents/journal sections when they get updated, i found myself have to look at all the cases each time there was a new diary entry indicator when outside the journals and it was hard to see what exactly or which case/story was updated.

I hope you make more games like this, this game needs much more exposure its a terrific game and and setting and i hope you will make more games like this.

The games length seems overall fine but i wouldnt have mind more of it as it was really addicting but a sequel or or something would be awesome aswell.
