Played it today with my wife, gotta say we both loved everything...music, art, design and write, all of them such beautiful and well done.
The only issue we had was that we closed the game during the intro of the third character, then when we decided to play the last one the game hadn't saved, so we just jumped to youtube and whatched the last part.

What can I say, most games today fail to connect the player with the character at a deeper level, but this game had such interesting characters and the way you can feel connected with them and go in too deep was just amazing, I can just tell you I felt the same way they felt.
The Music was just excellent for me, the music just simply connected with every emotions displayed at all levels, I feel like there just wasn't enough but still overall, it never had any negative impact on the game.

3 powerful and sad stories.
These are some of the best low res animations I've seen in a while.
I find it brilliant that the whole game only requires the left mouse button. There's no need for inventory or a traditional 9-verb interface.
