Was an engaging and overall excellent game. Big fan of Nicky Case and their work.

I believe, simple tools and explorables such as these can help understand human psyche much more than a volumes of monograph exploring human conditions. I think these game-based explorables will be big in the future for explaining deep and difficult concepts.

Games like this one (and video games more generally, I would say) also self-select for the people who have the patience and the drive to, well, play them, so, if anything, they'll only help with understanding the part of the population that is part of that demographic.
