Description:
This is a short game about two characters and a series of events centering around the rapist, Edmund. It might not be everyone's cup of tea, but some people should get an experience out of it, beyond the obvious.

Opinion:
Set in two chapters, Detroit and war time Vietnam, Edmund has you playing as a serial rapist and at least somewhat exploring his psyche. The main draw is by far the beautiful pixel art but it is also a mature game that handles the matures themes very well and is likely to evoke some emotions and push a little on your comfort level.
