I've played it! The atmosphere is dark, but I found it very captivating and true-to-life. It's alarming to think that situations like the one depicted in the game exist all over the world, with factories run by foreign companies being built in countries where employment opportunities are scarce. Thank you very much for creating such a fantastic piece of work.
nice idea story
