art is good, story is good, writing is packed with imagery. english translation is a little rough and it occasionally bugged for me and showed korean text instead of english, but ultimately didn't detract from my experience at all.

fun game and a pleasant way to spend some time. most frustrating part of the game for me was a section dependent on darkness, other than that it felt paced well and oriented to user experience. save system is easy to manage, as another reviewer pointed out, and i didn't spend more than 10 minutes on any one thing. i'd say it's worth a play for art style alone -- the atmosphere was great :]
