from PC world 13 September indexed on 14 September 2017 4:01I knew Last Day of June would end in tears, and it still got me. That, to me, is the most impressive feat this short time-traveling adventure pulls off. From two minutes into the game, before anything's even gone wrong, you know tragedy lies in wait.
