    The graphics of the game are described as a unique blend of disturbing visuals and charming designs, with a strong psychological horror atmosphere. However, the inconsistent mix of hand-drawn and 3D art styles has drawn criticism for not always meshing well, leading to some unpolished elements. Overall, while the visuals are appreciated for their creativity and distinctiveness, some players wish for a more cohesive aesthetic and better opportunities to fully appreciate the artwork.

    • “Very cool disturbing visuals and music.”
    • “Great hidden gem of a game that was well designed and has a great art style.”
    • “I loved the art style and vibes.”
    • “The inconsistent aesthetic: the mix of hand-drawn and 3D art styles didn't always mesh well, and the 3D elements felt a bit unpolished.”
    • “Sometimes they were on screen for only a few seconds, making it hard to fully appreciate the visuals.”
    • “I also wish there was a way to hide the text to better take in the artwork.”
  • story
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's storytelling is praised for its excellent narrative and intriguing atmosphere, though some players find the plot disjointed due to poorly introduced plot points and a slow transformation build-up. Additionally, the requirement to restart the game to access certain character missions detracts from the overall experience, with many feeling that a more cohesive approach to side quests would enhance the story.

    • “Excellent storytelling and a bizarre and interesting atmosphere as the story progresses.”
    • “I enjoyed the story and I feel like it would have been better to maybe extend the story and have all the side quests be available in one playthrough of the game, but overall it was a good game.”
    • “Other than the slow build-up of the transformation, plot points often aren't really introduced properly, ending up feeling disjointed.”
    • “Another issue, which ties into the previous one, is that you need to restart the game to see certain characters' missions.”
    • “I think it would've been better to just have all the character missions available in one run, personally.”

    The gameplay features effective mechanics in third-person navigation, complemented by fun characters and impressive artwork. While the actual gameplay time may be limited, it offers a varied experience with a creative flair, highlighted by a nostalgic low-poly PSX style.

    • “The game mechanics in third-person navigation mode work well.”
    • “The characters are fun, the artwork is wonderful, the gameplay is varied, and the creativity is through the roof.”
    • “In reality, I have about an hour of actual gameplay... if that.”
    • “The actual in-game gameplay outside of the mini-games uses a low-poly PSX style, and I really enjoy it.”
  • atmosphere
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's atmosphere is characterized by excellent storytelling and a bizarre, depressive tone, enhanced by a unique art style that effectively conveys a sense of clutter and infestation. However, some players feel that the coherence of the atmosphere is undermined by the game's progression and character development. Overall, it creates a compelling yet unsettling experience.

    • “Excellent storytelling and a bizarre and interesting atmosphere as the story progresses.”
    • “I like the odd, depressive general atmosphere and dour art style of the CGs.”
    • “It is very blocky and aliased, yet it effectively conveys a cluttered and infested atmosphere as she becomes more like the roach she dreads becoming.”
  • replayability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players appreciate the game's replayability due to the presence of at least four distinct paths, allowing for varied experiences and encouraging multiple playthroughs.

    • “There are at least four different routes to take, which adds significant replay value.”
    • “The game offers a variety of choices that lead to different outcomes, making each playthrough feel unique.”
    • “With numerous side quests and character interactions, I find myself coming back for more every time.”
    • “The game lacks significant replayability; once you've completed it, there's little incentive to go back.”
    • “While there are multiple paths, they don't feel distinct enough to warrant multiple playthroughs.”
    • “After finishing the game, I found that the choices I made didn't really change the outcome, making replaying it feel pointless.”
  • music
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is noted for its cool and disturbing qualities, contributing significantly to the overall atmosphere. Reviewers express a strong appreciation for the musical composition and hope to see more from the creative team in future projects.

    • “Very cool, disturbing visuals and music.”
    • “I really hope to see more work from everyone involved, from the 2D and 3D art to the music and writing.”
