Medics from another dimension are invading
The premise is pure nonsense, and the game commits to it completely. In an alternative version of the Russian Federation, parallel universes exist, and from one of them medical professionals have decided to take over this one. Mickey, an ordinary guy, gets caught in the middle by chance, and now he and his friends have to save their home universe with the help of a mysterious stone of truth. The story could be played as serious science fiction. The humor leans on internet culture and deliberately nonsensical dialogue, and the game is genuinely funny because of it.
A story you read, in your own style
This is a visual novel at heart: most of your time goes into reading dialogue and following the story as it unfolds, which makes it easy to pick up even if you have never touched the genre. Your choices shape how you get through it, and manual saves make it simple to go back and see where a different answer leads. The whole thing is drawn in a minimalist 2D style, simple and pared back, which suits the deadpan absurdity well. One honest note: it is short. A full run takes roughly half an hour, so treat it as a concentrated dose of nonsense rather than a long haul.
