5-6 hours and yes, it worth it
good enough I'd say.
Mita is worth it
There will be some major updates coming, so more hours of gameplay later. So far its about 6/7 hours, maybe 8/9 to unlock all achievements. Its very well polished game even now.

I spent 14 hours finding everything. Maybe I'm dumb.

Yeap, this game has a good price-to-enjoinment ratio

The price is fine for a game of this quality.
This game is priceless

i have 11 hours and 60% of achievements. The playthrough length depends on whether you like to read, explore and general curiosity levels.

Quality > Quantity

If you can tell a good story, you can make a lot of money in short amounts of time. Entire industries depend on this feature and so does Gaming.

You'll get there, too, when you get older. When time becomes more sparse, you will cherish short good experiences over longwinded monotonous ones.

Yup, it sure is.

A lot of story-based indie games are around 2-4 hours long, especially horror ones. It's the sweet spot. See also: any game by Chilla's Art, or the Fears to Fathom series. You can have a pretty involved story and a bunch of scenarios without it getting repetitive, and it's actually achievable to create for smaller developers. Like, MiSide is basically made by two guys.

If you want a significantly longer game then you either need to look at bigger developers, or games that prioritise an iterative gameplay loop over telling a story.

The tone of your question implies you think the game is too short for the price and positive reaction it's received, but this is honestly a game worthy of it... considering it's made by two people it's incredibly polished and enjoyable. Encouraging and supporting developers like this is worth a lot more to me than chucking another $70 at a billion-dollar company.

It took me almost five hours. The quality and game length feels right for the asking price imo. It being so highly reviewed is in large part to it becoming the flavor of the month. That said it's much better then something like Mouthwashing which costs about the same and is half as long.
