Broken Reality is, for good and for ill, Vaporwave: The Videogame.

It's like Nier and a Bloodbourne-leaning Soulslike got together and decided to make a surrealist game that deals with religion as both a source of salvation but also a source of inner turmoil.

A much-needed humanizing (and humorous) look at game devs and the process of game development.

A beautiful and relaxing pre-apocalypse jaunt across the countryside, but a little too light and airy for some of the more grandiose themes it brings up

Sad, powerful, and occasionally touching without being ham-fisted or maudlin. Asks for a player's emotional commitment, but gives *so* much back.

The ending sort of falls apart, but it offers a unique approach to horror games by giving a singular antagonist that hunts you throughout the game.
