Has anyone played this?

It's an interactive not so fiction game playing as someone who lives with depression. Let me know if you've tried it out and what you think.

*trigger warning* though so click with caution as it could trigger some people here.

Have never heard of it before DC.

What's your take on it? Have you tried it?

BigDC 12/15/2013

I did. Playing it did make me feel depressed but it also gave me an idea of what others are going through who have major depression.

Depression Simulator would be a better description. Also it won a lot of awards.

I wasn't depressed before but after playing it I started to be. I admit I found allot of the choices things I did or from time to time do. I found myself wanting to do better.

It shows that opening up and working with other people on the subject matter will help you out in the long run.
