Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
pesterquest is a nice little compact story that isn't necessarily the most inventive or groundbreaking visual novel, (not that i would expect that from a homestuck game), but it's fun and charming.
108 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay

Players occasionally choose responses that alter scenes or trigger alternate outcomes, although the game remains primarily focused on narrative progression rather than deep gameplay systems.
