1.0

It was building up an interesting mystery, but around 60% in, it dropped off so fast it made my head spin.
The main character even looks directly at the camera and goes "Gotcha! I was an unreliable narrator the whole time!" as if that makes up for how stunningly incompetent the entire cast turns out to be.
