The story in this game is generally described as cute and engaging, though it suffers from being overly short and underdeveloped, often feeling like a small incident rather than a fully fleshed-out narrative. While some players appreciate the charming characters and art style, many express disappointment over the lack of depth and replay value, with key plot elements left unexplained. Overall, the game is seen as a brief, bittersweet experience that hints at a larger story yet to be told, leaving players wanting more.
“Despite its length, it manages to tell a nice story in its time.”
“The mysteries that the story presents drive you to want to find out more.”
“Overall, this was a very enjoyable point and click game with great art and story.”
“Not much replay value since there are no decisions to make story-wise and the puzzles have the same solutions.”
“This is more of a storytelling experience; however, the story is very short, more like one small incident during the main character's life - saving a boy that she passed by.”
“The story is very short and the real plot is not revealed until about 60 minutes into the game, which is at about half of the playtime.”
