  • Intriguing detective story with well-developed characters and a noir atmosphere.
  • Effective sound design and stylish graphics that enhance immersion.
  • Free to play and provides a quick, atmospheric experience for fans of visual novels.
  • Extremely short with no meaningful ending; feels more like an incomplete demo or prologue.
  • Lacks gameplay elements such as player choices or interactivity.
  • Story feels unfinished and abandoned, leaving many questions unanswered with no follow-up chapters.
  • story
    21 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is generally viewed as short, vague, and somewhat confusing, with an artistic, minimalist style reminiscent of modern Japanese horror that leaves many plot elements unexplained. While some appreciate its mysterious and thought-provoking nature, others find it dull, incomplete, and unsatisfying due to a lack of development and closure, especially as the series appears abandoned without continuation.

    • “If you want to write a story or something and need a base design then play through this and you have that.”
    • “I enjoyed the story though, and I can't wait for the other parts.”
    • “It's like a mini short ghost story, with a surprising ending that makes the player think about what actually happened to those passengers.”
    • “Most likely we will never get the other parts of this story.”
    • “I'm not sure what's going on. I like how things changed in the opening scene at the end, but I don't know if this is like a short visual novel series which is gonna be like a Quentin Tarantino movie where it explains things out of order to piece together a big picture story or what. Introducing characters like they're somewhat important and not learning much about them before the end of the game feels really unsatisfying. Hopefully the other games will explain a good bit more about what's going on.”
    • “I'm not even entirely sure what the plot was supposed to mean.”
  • graphics
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are generally well-received, with an appealing art style and decent visual quality rated around 7. While not exceptional, the visuals complement the sound design well, though some users feel the overall experience lacks depth beyond the graphics.

    • “The art style is very appealing and the sound design is great.”
    • “Unfortunate since the sound, music and graphics are fine but there is no game here.”
    • “Graphics: 7”
  • music
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music and sound design are generally fine, but some users find the loud music and train sounds intrusive and wish for volume controls or voice acting to enhance the experience.

    • “Unfortunate since the sound, music, and graphics are fine but there is no game here.”
    • “No voice acting in this game, just loud music and train sounds that I can't figure out how to decrease the volume of.”
    • “Me trying to learn organic chemistry at the same time with a Mozilla extension that reads highlighted text, but no voice acting in this game.”
  • atmosphere
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The atmosphere in "6 people" is effectively crafted, creating a compelling and immersive experience despite its brevity. The setting on a stranded subway car fosters intrigue and leaves a lasting impression, demonstrating a strong example of atmospheric storytelling in a visual novel.

    • “6 People is a short atmospheric visual novel about six strangers who are stranded on a subway car.”
    • “Not only is it free, but what's presented sets up a good atmosphere and leaves you wondering at the end.”
    • “It's worth a quick playthrough, if not to get an idea of what good atmosphere setting up looks like.”
  • gameplay
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is minimal, primarily involving clicking through dialogue typical of a visual novel, but is hindered by poorly written text that detracts from the experience. Despite this, one review gave it a surprisingly high gameplay score of 8.

    • “As a visual/interactive novel, this doesn't feature any notable gameplay; it's just a lot of clicking through badly written dialogue that would never have been accepted or published in print, which raises the question, 'How did something this badly written end up on Steam?'”
  • grinding
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users find the grinding aspect tedious and monotonous, likening it to slowly clicking through text in visual novels or e-books rather than enjoying a seamless reading experience. This repetitive interaction diminishes engagement and can make progression feel laborious.

  • replayability
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game offers little to no replayability, as player choices do not significantly impact the experience.

    • “If you're a fan of replayability or 'my choice matters,' this game hasn't got any of them.”
