In this simulated playthrough of a non-existent video game in the style of (and with original material from) 90s text adventures, an internal monologue reflects on the surroundings and state of the world. Non-chronologically alternating between chapters in the present and near or distant future, the player chooses between different options to progress. A nostalgic play on what we decide to forget and remember moving forward. Are you sure you want to overwrite this savefile?
