The Alters is a game that's very tricky to explain to someone else who has no prior knowledge of what it is about. I recommended to someone last week on release and as soon as I said its by the devs who made Frostpunk, they said 'I'm in!!' and they are really enjoying it.
Yet since then two other conversations with friends who have never played a 11bit studios game ended with very little interest, even when I said just play it on GP and thank me later.
Its a very smart game, it does feel stressful at times but its extremely addictive and unique. Kudos to the devs at 11bit for creating a game that I hope will be remembered for a very long time.
Humble suggestion: could you kindly put a spoiler warning in front of stories like these? Sure, cloning is a core concept of the game, but what if someone would like to be surprised about the different life/career paths the main character can chose? Thanks much! :)
