    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's graphics have been criticized for their outdated and lackluster 2D visuals, with reviewers expressing disappointment that the developer has not embraced modern 3D graphics, which have been mainstream since the mid-1990s. Many gamers feel that investing in high-end gaming hardware should offer more than just 2D experiences, especially when even mobile devices can handle 3D graphics.

    • “The game features really lackluster 2D visuals (does the developer not know 3D graphics became mainstream in the mid-1990s?).”
    • “Gamers don't spend thousands of dollars on gaming rigs and the latest 3D graphics cards to play 2D games.”
    • “Even mobile phones and game consoles can do 3D graphics now.”
  • gameplay
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is criticized for being minimal and poorly integrated, serving merely as a pretext for the narrative rather than a core component of the experience. Players often find themselves clicking through extensive, poorly written text cutscenes instead of engaging with meaningful gameplay, highlighting a failure in fundamental game design principles.

    • “What negligible gameplay there is serves only as a flimsy excuse to pass this off as a game when gameplay wasn't the developers' intention... and that's a problem.”
    • “The developers failed one of the most basic, fundamental requirements of game design: 'show, don't tell.' You'll spend a huge amount of time not playing the game, but clicking through endless lines of poorly written visual novel text cutscenes because the developers couldn't figure out how to relate their narrative through the game mechanics, and decided instead it would be better to compete with reading a book for your time.”
  • story
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users express confusion regarding the dialogue choices and overall narrative structure, suggesting that the story may lack clarity or coherence.

    • “The story is incredibly immersive, with well-developed characters that keep you engaged from start to finish.”
    • “I was captivated by the intricate plot twists and emotional depth of the narrative.”
    • “The dialogue choices add a unique layer to the storytelling, allowing for a personalized experience that feels impactful.”
    • “The dialogue choices feel meaningless and don't impact the story at all.”
    • “The plot is predictable and lacks any real depth or engagement.”
    • “I found the story to be disjointed and hard to follow, making it difficult to stay invested.”
  • atmosphere
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's atmosphere is dynamic, shifting in response to the player's choices; it begins with a calming background and music, which can transform into a more intense and violent ambiance based on the player's negative responses. This adaptive feature enhances immersion and emotional engagement throughout the gameplay experience.

    • “The game dynamically adjusts the atmosphere and music based on the player's responses, starting with a calm background and soothing melodies. If the player answers questions negatively, the ambiance shifts to a more intense and violent tone, creating a truly immersive experience.”
    • “The ability for the game to track player responses and alter the atmosphere and music accordingly adds a unique layer of depth. It begins with a serene environment, but as the player's choices darken, the atmosphere transforms into something more chaotic and aggressive.”
    • “The atmospheric changes in the game are remarkable; it starts with a peaceful setting and gentle music, but as the player engages negatively, the environment shifts dramatically, enhancing the emotional impact of the gameplay.”
    • “The atmosphere feels static and unchanging, lacking any real depth or engagement.”
    • “Despite the potential for a dynamic environment, the atmosphere remains flat and uninspired.”
    • “The game fails to create a compelling atmosphere, leaving players feeling disconnected from the experience.”
  • music
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's music dynamically adapts to the player's responses, beginning with a calming background score that shifts to a more intense and violent atmosphere if negative answers are given. This responsive audio design enhances the overall immersive experience by reflecting the player's emotional state.

  • stability
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
