story
5 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe story received mixed feedback, with some players finding it confusing or lacking depth, especially compared to other games by the same developer. While the atmosphere and premise were noted as interesting, the narrative felt underdeveloped and unpolished, partly due to the game's short length and limited explanation. Overall, the story is seen as a clean-cut but somewhat empty experience with multiple endings.
“At the time of this review, I have played 3 out of the 4 games published by Yamoto, including this one. While Haunted Property and Urayama were very good in gameplay, graphics, settings, and story, this one is not a game I would recommend. I know it was Yamoto's first game, but with all due respect, it's not a good game.”
“Atmosphere and story are interesting, but the game feels very empty, maybe because it is very short (both endings under 30 minutes) and feels a bit unpolished.”

“Graphisms were not that great, there's no story. We can understand things in the other games, not this one (at least for me), and something that really disturbed me from start to finish was the zoomed-in view.”
