Reviews for "August 25th 2017"

This game is very visually appealing to me, and the music is beautiful, but I feel that the description given and what I got are incredibly disparate. I'm not sure if there was something I was meant to do to move on to the second day because when I got to the sixth room, all I could do was lay on the bed, and that was apparently the end.
It's certainly great for something that was made in only 3 days, but if I were to suggest something, should you decide to revise it, it would be a bit more instruction and/or a way to check the clipboards more than once or to deselect pills. The first room, I didn't know what to look for and wound up missing what sort of medication that patient was supposed to get, so I just gave them a random pill because I couldn't get away from the cart to check. And in the second room I forgot which pill it was supposed to be before I could find it.

I think this game has a lot of potential, but as it stands, it didn't impact me much as I only spent one "day" and none of the description given became relevant. Again, not sure if there was something I was supposed to do to continue or not.

I feel like a better way to show the message is just to have an owl go throughout his day without aging heavily between each room and dying. The message that the patient's live and die could be interesting if they had more than one blob of dialogue so you could get more attached to them. But again, i feel like the message would be better used as if he was just going through each day with the patients, watching some live and some die, and not apparently interacting with 5 patients in the span of 50 years and then dying. Also putting in the description "every 5 REAL LIFE days" because it seems like a lot of people are confused in the reviews. August 25th 2017 is the date in which all 5 patients will be dead apparently.

It wasn't really entertaining, but I give you 3 stars for nice graphics and beautiful music.

Why exactly is this rated M? There's nothing adult-like or even mildly inappropriate about the "game." Maybe there's swearing if you talk to a living NPC, but other than that, there isn't even any gore. It looks pretty nice visually, but the game is basically just "talk to a living NPC before they die in real-time." However, I like the idea and concept of this game. It could've probably been better as a movie, though.

This has happened 5 times in a row. Everytime I finish giving everyone their pills on the first day and I go to bed, a minute later, my screen fades to white and it's just stuck there, any way to get past this?

That's the "end" of the game.
