The Insane Reviews

All Eugene wanted was to upload some game reviews to YouTube, but entities of unknown origin and intention take him and the audience into a multi-layered nightmare, revealing baggage Eugene intended to leave behind when creating the channel. What follows is a conflict between two extremes as Eugene tries to piece together murders of entities, missing memories, and the legitimacy of knowledge given to him by the entities, all while questioning his place and meaning in it all.
