A really nice little exploration game with great atmosphere and wacky internet humour. It's a chill aesthetic experience, not a narrative experience.

Sorprendentemente divertido, esperaba un wealking simulator y descubrí un gameplay sencillo pero adictivo, una experiencia única y disfrutable. En algún lugar allá afuera alguien experimento el final drogado y siento envidia por el.

I like this game.

I have been obsessed with Vaporwave aesthetics, art and music for about 3-4 years now. Having come out in 2018, I didn't stumble upon Broken Reality until the mid 2020s. But I consider it to be the perfect all-in-one encapsulation of the strangeness and charming appeal of all things Vaporwave. You won't entirely capture the grungier or softer, more 80s aesthetic so much as the 1995 aesthetic. But I was impressed at how many genres of Vaporwave music were represented. Gameplay is just the right amount of silly and bizarre without getting confusing. I did still need a guide to be certain of a few things, but I managed to get around the rest of the time. Personally, I'm less about the dark underbelly of Vaporwave, less about the cynical or creepy side. I prefer my creepy or unsettling imagery in other games or films or art, so I liked that aspect less so. But I completely understand its usage here. In short, this is a new Favorite. I'm already listening to the soundtrack while at work.
