A surreal game about unsettling alterations in reality, December 16, 2024

This game is a surreal game with no overarching explanation or moral.

You play as an office worker who lives in suburbia. You do various things like waking up, showering, going to work and so on.

As you play, you encounter disturbing changes to what you thought reality was. Early examples include work you've never seen before showing up on your desk or lunch turning into a ball of rotten meat.

I enjoy this kind of surreality in games a lot. The only drawback is that you have to try all sorts of things at times to figure out what the next move is that will advance the game. Sometimes this can be really tricky, which detracts from the experience. It's not so much hard puzzles as 'there are 20 things you can do right now but only one is correct'.
