Pixar's Inside Out was likely the strongest product put out by the company in the last decade, no doubt helped by the excellent concept of humanising the 'voices' in our heads.

Well, developer Superstring had the clever idea to take that idea and gamify. The premise has our protagonist waking from his stupor with no recollection of the past few days. The 'office' in his head must figure out the mystery.

It is a killer concept but the execution doesn't seem to match the ambition with fairly basic animation intercut with the always unsexy trait of Full Motion Video.
