It's boring not engaging.
the gameplay is slow paced with repetitive dialogue and choices that don’t even matter. It feels more like watching a dull movie than actually playing a game.

The art style is decent but doesn’t improve much of the overall experience.
the ending is hard to sit through, It's just a waste of time It took me 6 hr of total playtime, but the actual gameplay can take you only around 20 min !!!

Oh, I adored this. What a fantastic experience this was, everything from the story to the environments, the art, the music, the performances, it was so good. Really tugged at my heart strings, I loved it!

A good game that tells the story of a person both writing a university paper and trying to save themselves and their friend) from the cold Antarctic.
Game runs very well on the Steam Deck and is very fluid. Takes about 3 and a half hours to 100% the game - but you only have to play the game once to get them all.
The art contained in the artbook DLC is nice and is awesome to see the concept art that went into making the game. The visuals are beautiful and stunning. The gameplay is a bit slow, but it plays well into the hand of the story that it is trying to tell.
I liked the Easter egg where the icebreaker is called S.S. Lumi - a throwback to Lumino City (a previous State of Play title) where the protagonist is named Lumi.
I wouldn't buy it at full price - but on sale is definitely a good buy.
Overall, a very well made game that does a very good job in telling it's story.
