The game starts off with you waking up in a closet, confused about how you ended up there since you had gone to bed earlier. The first couple objectives are simple enough: take some of your medication that's on the dining table and explore all eight rooms of your house; however, these don't even make sense. There's no indication later in the game that suggests you just moved in, therefore the assumption is that you've lived there for quite some time, so what sense does it make for you to explore your own house? Even if you've just moved in, it doesn't make sense to explore the house in the middle of the night after mysteriously waking up in a closet. Also, taking your medication (or, as you call it, your "crazy pills") should've already been done before going to bed. Describing them as "crazy pills" suggests they're for treatment of a psychological issue. These medications are usually taken at bedtime, not in the middle of the night. The first objective of the game should've been to go back to bed.
These are petty critiques, but the game becomes worse because the rest is literally a ritual of waking up in a different part of the house, looking for your bedroom key (because, somehow, your bedroom door gets locked after each sleep-wake cycle), and unlocking your bedroom to go back to sleep. Each sleep-wake cycle/loop is slightly different from the previous one, but it's essentially the same song and dance: wake up, look for your bedroom key, and go back to bed. After about the fifth loop, the game crashed on me, and it was extra frustrating that it didn't save my progress.
The main menu gives you the option to play Scene 2, but I was so frustrated and upset I didn't even bother. So, I didn't finish the game, and quite frankly, it's not worth it because the ending is most likely anti-climactic. I was even contemplating featuring this game on my channel, but nonetheless, it's content. Besides, if I can use this video in hopes of straying other players away from this game, it's worth uploading.
Harsh critiquing is essential for game developers, and I hope I've done that to show the developer what they can improve for future releases. For gamers, needles to say, I recommend you find another game.
Nice game! you can watch my gameplay here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k46bF-f3bwA
