How much control does the player have over the story? I know it says (mostly) linear, but there are multiple endings. Thank you!
There are one choice endings throughout the story (bad endings for if you make the wrong choice) and towards the end there are single choices that result in alternate endings. So although the player doesn't have much control over the course of the story (as in there aren't multiple routes) you do get to see if you make the correct choices (and not die) and also you can also opt for the other endings. Hope that helps! Any other questions feel free to ask :)
