The story is described as an interesting and sad narrative that engages players with its emotional depth, though it lacks significant interactivity and choices, making it feel more like an animated story than a traditional game. While the writing is detailed and may slow down the pacing, it effectively explores mature themes and offers a touching experience, particularly for those who appreciate visual novels that delve into reality beyond just romantic elements. Overall, the storyline is compelling but may not appeal to those seeking a more interactive gaming experience.
“Overall, the story's enjoyable and not too short, but the complete lack of choices makes this visual novel a little strange.”
“I'm not going to spoil anything about the story, which starts deep from the beginning. It's the only thing that keeps this game up; if you're into visual novels that treat reality themes and not only love, this is a nice choice—well done and touching at some points, but don't expect too much and overall don't expect to be able to choose the direction you're taking.”
“Overall, I think this visual novel was made for a more mature audience. Even if this is the teen version, it carries a 'heavy meaning' that may not be suitable for people who aren't used to this kind of story, and that’s why I enjoyed it.”
“It is supposed to slow down the story before a certain crucial point (not many choices here though!), but this slow and excessively detailed writing might not work for some people.”
“Not sure if I missed something, but this seemed less of a game and more of an animated story.”
“There's three routes in this game, I believe; however, there's a lack of interactivity until the end of the storylines.”
