Less of a game than a guided narrative experience, I still found it engrossing and moving — enough to finish it in one sitting. It could have become more of a game if the developer had eventually removed the tutorial instructions. I paid close attention to the procedures expecting the helping hand to go away, but all the way through the end you get step by step instructions. I get that they wanted the focus to be more on the story, but I think adding a bit of challenge would have made the game more immersive. In any event, it was definitely worth the play through for me.
