it's 3 bucks, and is apparently not a game but an art piece.
a peice of aaaahhht.
so i'm trying it out, and i don't have the slightest shit of an idea what's going on...and i find myself doing all kinds of weird things...but it appears as though i'm progressing through the game.
anyone tried it yet?
update: i just unlocked like 9 trophies. i'm not sure what happened. did i just have sex? did i just take the CPA exam? did i just buy stock in an oil company? no idea. but it was pretty.

So, thumbs up or thumbs down? I'm tempted to purchase it but I have no idea what it is... Which makes the temptation a mystery itself.

i did a little more reading on it.
it's an artistic thing - it's essentially a relatively short movie with some interactive elements. it progresses in stages and you have to figure out what you have to do to move on. there are clues at times, and little hidden things you can find.
i'd say get it. i hope there are more of these in the future.

Okay, I'm checking it out. But only because for some reason I had $5 in my funds.
Correction, I just added $5. Should've read the screen better.
Impressions: Beyond strange. I remember seeing the demo video of this (which looked more impressive in video, but that's beside the point). It's weird. It's not a game, which it states in one of the options. It's... I guess... and experience? Really, it seems like a tech demo.

Because that's exactly what it is. ;)

It's definitely interesting...and odd, considering the guys were talking about watching demoes in TRS-80.
The Hidden Part brought back some nostalgic feelings for some reason, maybe just watching the occasional one years ago.
