The story starts with Alexander coming home from work and cooking dinner for the MC. As the food cooks, Alexander talks about his day at the bakery and how one hold up with an old lady lead to a more angry crowd. Alexander seems to plan to move him and the MC out to a different area, as he feels as if the townsfolk are too nosy, and wants the MC to be able to go out more. After finishing the food, Alexander tries to feed the MC only to reveal that her mouth is taped shut. Alexander seems nonchalant about this, and we learn quickly that not only is the MC kept in the basement, but she's also caged as well. The MC begs Alexander to let them go home and that she wonder about her job. Alexander states that the MC never liked their job and that he already put in their weeks notice. The MC asks about their friends and Alexander seems to contemplate on killing them, only stopping if the MC states that she love him. Unfortunately, this isn't enough to sate Alexander, so he goes out to kill them, telling the MC to be a good girl in the meantime.

This game is pretty short but given that there's only one asset they can use I think it does a good job in establishing Alexander as a character. Despite knowing that he was a yandere, its was pretty cool seeing the camera zoom out to show that they're not only in a basement but in a cage as well. The various dialogue that we can choose from the beginning was great in tricking the reader into thinking that this was a normal conversation and in turn lets us look deeper into Alexander's character as a yandere. Like dang the zoomout on the cage was super cool.

Alexander as a yandere is definitely a lot more delusional than he initially seems. It is pretty cool that we get to see his point of view, in a way, how he imagines that the MC is responding to him by asking questions about how his day went. That and even when she begs to let her go, he seems nonchalant about it, like this isn't a big issue, and that things will always return to what they used to be. I do like that he also gaslights the player when she asks what she'll do for her job, basically using her own words back at her, and when she begs him not to kill her friends, he completely disregards it and goes off the kill them. It honestly seems like he's not aware of how terrible his actions are and that he's not even quite there. Like when she spits out the food, he simply states that the foods is too hot. The type of yandere who seems to disregard how bad his actions really are. And I think that's pretty neat.
