What it's about: Hank, le personnage qui voyage dans le temps, prévoyait de se détendre autour d'un verre, mais a été empoisonné ! Paralysé, il gît sur le sol noyé dans une flaque de bière renversée. Alors que son cerveau dépérit, le héros se lance dans un voyage à travers son propre subconscient.

« Visuals and voice work is fantastic. Priced perfectly, and left me wanting far more. Like I could have done a good 15 minutes more of the ending event, that was a great note to conclude on. Looking forward to Hank's return! »
