The thing is, if anything I don’t think it’s weird enough.
I did actually really enjoy the environmental storytelling, especially around Tyler’s low effort retreat.
Kim, for example, has outbursts of anger, so has a rage-out with her red crystal.
Horse-heads charge in and out a bit skittishly, while bears take big lumbering swings.
I spose I just wish The Chant escalated more sharply from there.
It’s like how aliens are often imagined as humanoid-ish, or at least a recogniseable number of legs.
But why be constrained by limbs at all?
Jess is disturbed a-plenty, in any case.
There’s more precision in balancing Jess’s three key self-resources: Mind, Body and Spirit.
Body is your physical health, which can be restored by snarfing a raw ginger plant.
you’ve got the option to also sacrifice Spirit by meditating and recharging your Mind.
It’s sort of a step up from the ol' insanity metric.
Varying mileage and so on.
