This game is in desperate need of a map! The glitch effect was cool to begin with but started to feel more common and drag as the game went on, just sort of stopping my ability to see. I did like npc's a good amount. Their dialogue was funny and at times pretty hard-hitting. Special mentions to the one whose husband was never made. That's brutal and I can empathize. The actual gameplay was lacking though, since I'd spend 10 minutes constantly being interrupted by glitches looking for one rock with the vague direction of like North-East. Additionally, I was not able to complete my quest log because the red rock quest did not disappear upon completion, and the fishing rod was never collectible, even when the fisherman was looking for it. Given this is a unique mechanic to the fishing rod, I am forced to assume it was never completed. Purple outdoors is spooky though, and I do enjoy the music choice.
