Living on the moon is lonely, and stressful, and exhausting. Video games have always offered you an escape to a better life. The easy, happy life you wish you had. Which makes it so frustrating when the game you've been playing ends badly.

A narrative game from the creator of The Stanley Parable. About ninety minutes long, with no goals, no objectives and no traditional mechanics: just a story about a person struggling with something they do not understand. It is short, strange and quietly devastating, and it tends to stay with people long after the credits.

A girl needs to buy milk. That is the whole errand, and it is one of the hardest things she has ever done. You are the voice in her head, guiding her through a red-drenched, ten-minute spiral of wordplay, dread and fragile trust. A tiny visual novel that says more in a quarter of an hour than most games manage in twenty hours.
