Return.

Return. looks like the kind of game that leans on repetition, reset, and going back over familiar ground, which can be satisfying when the loop is the whole point. By our assessment, its appeal would come from how neatly it turns the idea of coming back into play rather than just story. That can make for a focused session, because the rules are usually easy to grasp and the structure is direct. The downside is that a loop like this needs strong variation, or else the experience can feel circular in the dull sense as well as the literal one. In practice it likely asks for patience with small changes and careful attention to what carries over. Compared with larger narrative or exploration games, the scope is probably much narrower. Return. is for players who enjoy compact systems and do not mind revisiting the same space with new eyes.
