      It was on Game pass before, and I kinda did skip it because I felt like I had played multiple “processing grief” video games, and didn’t like the idea of doing it in a formless world of colors rather than around some kind of deliberate, recognizable world theme. There’s such a thing as being too artsy and abstract.

      It’s pretty common for some games to leave and then return again to game pass. Probably has to do with licensing terms

    Firewatch and Gris are great. Not played the others.
