About
Step into the town of Porcupine and take to the well-loved scrubs of Finley, the newest fledgling doctor to join the ranks of St. Ursula's hospital. As the seasons in the small-town change and life starts to stir, you'll soon realize that things aren't always what they seem: Not everyone is honest with themselves and others, the healthcare industry is not as illustrious as it seemed in medical school, and the work/life balance Finley strives toward might be impossible to achieve.

Not only is there a lot to discover in the old hospital, but also in the small town of Porcupine itself. Take the time to meet the villagers and have a beer with them in the local pub, take a trip to the nearby forest, or spend quality time with your friends.
The blunt head doctor, the selfless nurse, Finley's smart friends, and many other residents populate the small town of Porcupine. Engage in funny, profound, and sometimes serious dialogues, in which you'll be able to choose your answers and influence your relationships.
You don't even have time to look at the clock because your patients are waiting! Investigate what's wrong with them through your conversations and treat them in different minigames that challenge you in logic, speed, and skill.
At first glance, the small town is a warm, friendly place where everyone knows and greets each other. But if you live there for any length of time, you'll suspect that not everyone is as honest as they pretend to be – especially in an unhealthy healthcare-system.

Super Spiel, hat mich zum weinen gebracht und nachdenken nur zwei Fehler fahren bei mir, das ich mich einmal wo die Hauptfigur gespielt habe im Bett bewegen konnte, nur ein schritt. Am Ende wo das Feuer war, stand eine NPC auf den Bett nicht liegend. Aber ansonsten super spiel :)
It's a cute game with beautiful artstyle and memorable characters. There are a few bugs, most of which were either controls not always working when interacting with the phone for example or some of the dialogue being off-screen at times, but none of it stopped me from playing through the game. Overall I feel like the game could have been a bit more polished which could be the difference between a good game and a great one. If you decide to pick it up I heavily recommend playing through the demo first which is actually the prologue of the game and sadly isn't included in the main game. Hopefully someday it will receive update to fix the minor bugs and give it the polish it deserves. I personally liked the world of Porcupine and it's citizens and would love to play another game from the developers that either continues the story or is completely separate from it, but takes place in the same world. Thank you :)
A really pleasant surprise. I'm a huge Night In The Woods fan and was aware beforehand that there'd be similarities. There's definitely a lot borrowed from the game and it's the closest thing to a true NITW-like that I've ever found but I do also feel like it stands really well on its own. Wonderful autumnal atmosphere, lovely music, even really liked the ambient sounds of the hospital and the bar. I grew really fond of the characters over the course of the game, they're nicely written and complex without being too obvious about it. The fisherman by the river and Alfio were real highlights. It genuinely made me giggle at times too, there were some really charming humorous moments. There were a couple of noticeable bugs here and there (there have been a lot of complaints about the stethoscope minigame which I can't disagree with) but it didn't detract from the overall experience. I honestly didn't mind the ending either but I'm generally alright with endings that leave a lot to the imagination and there's a whole world that this game offers for you to wonder about. Looking forward to replaying later this year. I never usually leave reviews but really wanted to add some positive thoughts for this one.
