It’s these questions that give us Kentucky Route Zero's most memorable moments. The floating restaurant run by Sam and Ida, who explore the depths looking for new ingredients. The bars of The Lower Depths and The Rum Colony, providing moments of respite while staving off their own failure. The town with no roads of Kentucky Route Zero's final act, and the bittersweet conclusion that it provides.

Kentucky Route Zero isn’t a game for everyone, and as a piece of art it is bizarre and gives no clear answers. However, it doesn't have to, and instead allows its characters the room to breathe and push forward its themes in a way that very few games have been able to manage. Kentucky Route Zero has a finale well worth the wait, and a complete package that stands as one of the most interesting video games ever created.

Kentucky Route Zero is out now for PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.
