Like Blue Prince, Repose invites you to make use of a notepad.
Unlike Blue Prince, this isn’t because you’ll be jotting down clues about winsome dartboard puzzles.
It’s because the game doesn’t have a save system.

Your employer is simply The Company.
My flat doesn’t harbour any astronaut husks, mind.
Not since the landlord put his foot down about couch surfers.
