Compelling story with poetic and interesting dialogue.
Great sound and visual design that enhances the narrative experience.
Affordable price, especially when considered as part of a bundle with the developer's other game.

The game is very short, often completed in under half an hour.
One of the voice actors has an annoying style reminiscent of TikTok.
Some players may find it a downgrade compared to the developer's previous work in terms of depth.
