Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
46 of 65 sampled reviews raised it
But the conclusional scenes in this visual novel really met their expectations, throughout the story it builds up to potential confrontations that can be real uh-ohs to the characters and those scenes live up to that build up.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
22 of 65 sampled reviews raised it
The voice acting is also good and really amazing at times, I've not well verse with Chinese voice acting so it felt different but the actors were really good at making the scenes feel real.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
5 of 65 sampled reviews raised it
The progression of Qianxun and Mianxue’s relationship from antagonism to affection is sweet and relatable, and the Chinese setting and voice acting are underrepresented in English translated visual novels.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
5 of 65 sampled reviews raised it
Whilst not quite reaching the levels of a, say, Kindred Spirits on the Roof, this game is definitely among the better VNs on Steam, especially with its art style which manages to stand out as both good and unique.
