The town of light is one of those games that shares an experience of the main character who suffers from mental illness and the horrific encounters she had while staying at an asylum (like how they treated her, and the many abuses she dealt with while there).I'll tell you flat out, this is a walking simulator and if you're in it for the story, I would recommend it--even though the game itself is fairly short (about 3 hours)
