I'll try to stick with it and will update my review if the story gets to the point where it outweighs the atrocious writing, but at this point I do not recommend purchasing this if you intend to read it in English.”

The gameplay is centered around a dialogue tree mechanic, offering a short but engaging experience of about 5 to 6 hours, including DLC. However, players note that the story can feel repetitive when exploring different endings, and the absence of a truly happy ending may be disappointing for some. Overall, it is recommended for those seeking a concise narrative-driven game.
- “The only issue is too much repeating story just to access other route endings, and there isn't a true happy ending where no one was hurt. Anyway, 9.5/10; the simple reason is it's too short, around 5 hours of gameplay, and with DLC probably 6 hours. I just hope they can add more content about the route.”
