Well, I can definitely say that this is the best untranslated Russian game I've played in IFComp (it's the only one; we've had several dual-language games before though).
But I actually do think the story's cool. It's a branching Twine game with a surreal atmosphere, almost like a Magnus Archive statement or an SCP Class of 76 thing, and you work at an archive full of police records and such while your memories changes (or the world around you).
Google's automatic translate didn't load, but then I reloaded the page; once you do that, it loads and you can play it in English in Chrome.
It has some interesting endings, but one of the endings just ends on a blank page, which I thought could have been a hint, since the game suggests looking into blank spaces, but opening it up in Twinery shows nothing. Overall, it remains a short, mostly-linear game (diverging into 3 branches) with an interesting premise and in a non-standard IFComp language. I'm glad it was entered.
