    The story starts primarily as a framework for puzzles but gradually becomes more engaging and emotionally impactful, especially toward the ending. While the narrative can be fascinating and well-voiced, some players find it a bit hard to follow or lacking in character development.

    • “The game itself is fairly short, and you won't get stuck a single time, but the ending adds much more depth to the story.”
    • “Fortunately, all dialogue is fully voiced, which makes it much easier to absorb the large amount of story revealed near the end.”

    • “Once a character arrives at the island, their story is essentially complete and they can no longer be controlled.”
