Until Then
Mark, an average irresponsible high school student, tries to get by and find purpose in a humdrum life of scrolling, cramming, and traffic. He meets friends, both old and new, and embarks upon a seemingly never-ending trouble, until nothing is ever the same again. Until Then is a contemporary adventure game inspired by the Philippines, its lifestyle, and culture. Featuring a smartphone where mechanics of modern living come into play, chat with your classmates and explore the depths of social networks, where your replies and interactions may pose consequences.

Review coverage
Critic signal strength
Numeric critic scoring uses full scored reviews once available. Review-in-progress scores act as temporary early signal only until full review scores exist. Unscored reviews still count as coverage, but they are not included in the critic average.
