About
It's September 1, 1986. You take on the role of forty-something Meredith Weiss, who returns from the big city to her quiet hometown. She exchanges her busy career at a software company to fill in for her dad, the local mail carrier.
During her two-week stay in beautiful Providence Oaks, Oregon, she runs into a few familiar faces as well as plenty of new folk. As Meredith, you get to decide who to talk to, who to befriend and perhaps even start a romantic relationship with.
Whatever happens, at the end of her stint she'll have to make up her mind: return to her demanding job in the big city, or stay in the town she grew up in?

Lake reviews and comments
A short game that lets you spend a couple of weeks with a character as she returns to her hometown to help her father. You cover his postal job while he's away and drive around a lovely little town. Nothing world changing but tbh it was a nice change of pace for me too.
Grabbed it on game pass coz it sounded chill and was pleasantly surprised to find I could initiate a wlw romance in the game! And it was super sweet! Always a nice bonus.
It's a bit juddery at times even on Xbox One X so could probably do with a tune up. Overall worth a punt esp on game pass.

In some ways, this is the most depressing game of the year.
There's no rush here, no points, no score, no enemies to fight. Just simple, peaceful story to follow, with some decisions to make. And some awesome music in the radio. That's it.
And for this pleasant representation of a simpler life, I give it "recommended" :).
