While being prompted to reply to a character, you’re given pre-selected answers that, at times, are the same exact responses worded in different ways. Tell Me Why gives you the illusion of choice. At first, the choose-your-own-adventure vibes are intriguing, but the visual-novel game mechanics - requiring nothing more than a simple press of the Y or X button - gets old fairly quickly. While the twins exchange awkward pleasantries after not seeing each other for years, you get to look around and take in the Alaskan landscape - and boy is it beautiful! Tell Me Why may be boring, but Delos Crossing surely isn’t.ĭuring this ferry ride, you’re introduced to Tell Me Why’s incredibly tedious gameplay - every now and then, you’ll be prompted to choose how you’d like to respond to characters, which can affect the story down the line. In order to return home, the twins must take a ferry across the river. We get our first glimpse of Delos Crossing’s natural beauty when Alyson, Tyler’s twin sister, picks up Tyler from Fireweed, a juvenile detention center he’s been living in for the past decade.
