It's pretty much just a interactive teenage drama novel in vidya form. The fact it got 10/10s everywhere was an embarrassment and showed just how much the hobby was infested with posers, many of whom were SJWs and Anita simps.
As a game, it's a casual walking sim investigation/mystery that borders on boring to pretentious artfag shit like Dear Ester. As a story, it's schmaltzy melodrama that would appeal to teenagers on Tumblr and söyboy artfags who've never touched vidya ever. You'd get better milage out of something like Journey instead because at least with that game it's beautiful to look at and the simplicity with the minimalist communication with other players is fun and charming - just pure SOUL overload and is vastly more replayable than Gone Homo.
