Overall, players appreciate the engaging plot and character interactions, expressing a desire for more content to deepen their connection to the story.

    • “A short emotional story with great voice acting and greater writing.”
    • “However, the detail to world building and character development is out of this world; the artwork is so vibrant and expressive, and the story pacing is picture perfect.”
    • “Things take a little bit to ramp up, but I felt myself become emotionally invested in the events of the story, and the writing delivered its core message coherently and effectively, with a handful of moments making me genuinely teary-eyed.”

  • music
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “The soundtrack is fine, but I really like the characters' themes.”
    • “The sound is just not interesting, especially the lack of a background soundtrack, so you go for stretches of text without some kind of mood music.”
