Almost unbearbly difficult to experience (especially if you've previously suffered or do suffer from serious depression yourself, or know someone who does), Actual Sunlight is the story of a dead-end 30-something rapidly being consumed by his cynicism and disdain for himself and the life he leads...or doesn't lead. Though it's obvious from the onset how this story must end, it makes the conclusion no easier to stomach.

Barely a game in the traditional sense, but that's hardly the point. Actual Sunlight is brave and incredibly well-written, but not likely something I'll ever go back to. Some stories just hit too close to home.
