    I know it's Thursday, but this isn't one of THOSE free games. No, it's
    a freebie on Steam. And as much as we tease Epic for their low-quality freebies, they ain't got nothin' on what you can get for free on
    Steam. ;-)

    "A short game telling about the hero's death experience
    performed in a gloomy black and white style. Full localiz-
    ation on [sic] English and Russian languages". It's mostly
    just text on screen; it hasn't even the gameplay of a
    'walking sim'. Short doesn't really describe it (15 minutes
    or less, start to finish). Apparently they actually had the
    gall to charge people for this but --luck you!-- now you
    can get it for free.


    Claim it quick, the offer is gone in a week! Only bringing you the
    best games, that's me! ;-)

    Guess it's a give-away? :)
