I was taking part in @nex3's "80 Days in 80 Days" race and I finished my run of 80 Days last night (day 73 baybee 🎉). I had never played this before - holy hell what a game!! I'm definitely giving this a strong recommend to friends who like story-driven games. The writing feels like an incredible feat, especially when considering all of the different routes presented to the player. Over the past couple months I took screenshots of a number of interactions I enjoyed, and now tonight I've been looking through the whole folder like they're souvenirs... 😅 so I attached a few snippets.
Looking at Steam, looks like playtime for my one run came in at 5.5 hours. A good portion of that was pausing in order to consider strategies -- the game clock runs during most interactions, save for pausing or dialogue, so hitting the brakes to think was very helpful. The game's UI can be a little challenging because a lot isn't directly explained, so one discovery I'll save you: if you're planning on using a timetable, hang on to it.
alright im done talking PLAY THE GAME IT'S FUN
