This horror visual novel about Ib, a little girl caught in the illusion of a museum alongside Garry, surprised me with its engaging storyline and appealing characters.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
With better graphics and dialogue screens, up to the ability to talk to the game's companions whenever you like, these editions help make the game more immersive and further aid one in building a stronger bond with the characters in the game.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The moving soundtrack, which I still listen to for inspiration, further added the depth of emotional experience while playing the game.

For the gameplay : it's flawless for me.

Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
I would like to add that the option in the menu to be able to visit the real exhibition is just so great and satisfying: Finishing the different endings and discovering each work of the game and its titles will fill the real exhibition and we will also be able to find the important characters of the game to chat with them.
