The main character of the game is Joshua Hayes - a neuroscientist, whose family is affected by a rare genetic disease, slowly devouring the minds of the sick. Hope for rescue is given by an experimental program run by the company Neuraxis. It soon turns out, too, that the process used in it has an unusual side effect, namely, it causes gates to alternative realities to open.
In an attempt to heal himself, the protagonist becomes embroiled in a dark corporate intrigue and discovers the secrets of Neuraxis.

Game Ratings for The Gap Video Game.
Garage Band Gamers: 9 / 10 by Chad Johnson
It’s been a little over a day since I finished The Gap and I am still processing everything that I experienced within the walls of Joshua’s mind, and if you choose to enter it, it will likely draw you in akin to the way What Remains of Edith Finch or your favorite narrative based walking sim would. Despite suffering due to a lack of direction on a few of the puzzles, it’s a game that you won’t forget.
WayTooManyGames: 7 / 10 by Oliver Shellding
The Gap doesn’t drop breadcrumbs to lead players to the end, it uses megaphones to scream answers at you while also keeping you completely in the dark. It’s like if Verbal had started his conversation with “I’m Keyser Soze” but then been frustratingly vague about what he was doing on the day in question. The result is something that’s an interesting and big swing in the world of game storytelling, but it only gets a piece of the ball: it doesn’t connect enough for a homerun.
GameGrin: 7 / 10 by Mike Crewe
The Gap has a compelling and sombre narrative and an interesting premise that will appeal to fans of slow-burning mysteries. Whilst the puzzles could have been slightly more complex, this short game of one man's quest to save his loved ones is still a tale worth experiencing.
