    • “It's a short but very sweet story where you're set up to talk and find out more about these robots' past and tragic backstory, why they've been deemed dangerous and sent to the scrapyard.”
    • “Without spoiling anything, each of those trashed robots has a tragic backstory for you to uncover, and you'll find more about yourself and your AI companion along the way.”
    • “A nice art style paired with nice music, and dialogue and story that oscillates smoothly between cheerful and funny to somber and reflective.”
    • “The story revolves around three deactivated robots deemed problematic to society plus one AI which is your companion throughout the game.”
    • “These are most of the major context in the story, but with the way it is structured, the game is basically asking you: 'Do you really need to know everything in order to empathize with them?' Especially in the bad guy route, you are basically torturing them to death just to squeeze those information out of them, and it doesn't even feel like a confession or the truth; it feels more like regrets.”
    • “Without spoiling anything, of course each of those trashed robots have a tragic backstory for you to uncover and you'll find more about yourself and your AI companion along the way.”
