The pixel art is beautifully crafted and stands out as a highlight of the game.
The game creates a mysterious and unsettling atmosphere, effectively engaging players with its story.
Despite its linearity, the game offers a refreshing experience with its unique approach to storytelling and gameplay.

The game's story is described as intriguing yet unfinished, leaving players with many unanswered questions and a sense of abruptness, particularly in its third act. While the narrative has potential and creates a suspenseful atmosphere, the poor translation hampers understanding, and the lack of meaningful player choices limits engagement with the story. Overall, it offers a unique vision centered around the character of Flandre, but many feel it falls short of being a fully realized experience.
- “The story is a captivating journey that keeps you on the edge of your seat, filled with suspense and a desire to see what happens next.”
- “It is eminently palpable from every moment of play that letter_w seeks to capture a particular vision - a particular story for this character, flandre, that they have a madman's attachment to - and they did so not by adhering to familiar touhou tropes of plot or setting or game mechanics, but by keeping the things they wanted to keep and throwing the rest out.”
- “This is a story about a young vampire girl named flan and her talking cat.”
- “Honestly, compared to the demo of Flan's BN, I was quite disappointed. It may be worth the price if you speak the native language, but the translation is severely lacking for what seems to be a story-heavy game.”
- “The story also feels unfinished; it's like you wrote 1/4 of a book, added a bunch of cliffhangers, and just stopped there. The story makes no sense, and each act doesn’t make sense, especially the third.”
- “I've played the game back and forth about 5 times now and I've tried to do things differently in all of the runs, but nothing changes. It seems like there is no decision you can make that can mess up your story or make it fail. You can't 'die' in the game; if you get 'hit' by the red orb, which you have to hide in a cabinet to escape, you just get teleported outside by Amio.”

The gameplay is characterized by a lack of meaningful item usage, as most collectibles serve only to trigger dialogues without impacting gameplay. Players encounter a mix of familiar genres reimagined with Touhou aesthetics, but many mechanics feel underutilized or one-off, leading to a disjointed experience. Additionally, the deliberate slowness of movement, limited to left and right keys, contributes to a unique but potentially frustrating gameplay pace.
- “It is eminently palpable from every moment of play that letter_w seeks to capture a particular vision - a particular story for this character, Flandre, that they have a madman's attachment to - and they did so not by adhering to familiar Touhou tropes of plot or setting or game mechanics, but by keeping the things they wanted to keep and throwing the rest out.”
- “Great little horror game; the English localization can be quite lacking at times, but so far the story and mechanics are understandable.”
- “That and the fact that 99% of items you pick up in the game do not have a use in the gameplay, just to give them to the characters in the UI which activates different dialogues but does nothing per se.”
- “Look at this plethora of minigame mechanics that get used just once and never come up again.”
- “Gameplay is deliberately slow because your only movement keys are left and right.”
