DISTRAINT - Release Trailer

Though it may look like nothing special on the surface, DISTRAINT is a worthwhile adventure game about the toll greed can take. Horror imagery is used to display the main character's all-consuming guilt, and the smart sound design amplifies it perfectly. While the story isn't especially long, it's absorbing and gives you a lot to think about.

It's all very sombre and gray and feels like charcoal etchings brought to life.
Twinfinite
While some areas begin to feel a bit repetitive when back-and-forth wandering is needed to move beyond a puzzle, this one still gets a hearty recommendation from me.
TechRaptor
It's functional and just weird enough to be mostly enjoyable, but the forced surrealism wears thin quickly.
