Apparently I had this one in my library already; it was a freebie back
in 2021. I'm not suprised I'd forgotten about it; it's made by the
developers who did the popular "Life is Strange" games, which never
appealed to me. I'm too far removed from teenage angst (and, quite
honestly, never really suffered from it in my own youth) for that
genre to appeal to me.

So, sadly, The Number does not go up today. At least, not from this
game. Still, it is reportedly a good game, and some aspects of the
actually looks interesting to me. I just don't find the drama bits all
that appealing. But if you can get past that (and enjoy Telltale-style
adventures) it's probably an enjoyable experience.

Still, thanks for the notification, Ant.

This title follows the same visual novel/movie concept, but not Teenage
angst, but the main protagonist as far as I remember is a transsexual
man mid 20s and his brother (or sister, cannot remember)
