Cute and dark gl visual novel — the art is nice and the ost matches the vibe, there are not a lot of options or really none in terms of dialogue, but that's kinda the point, I think, with the reveals and all.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
21 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
This has indeed been the lovely experience I was expecting upon seeing the gorgeous art style and flowery bits of prose sprinkled throughout screenshots over social media.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
12 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The story is rather brief, yet engaging with an intriguing narrative and plot-progression, which has a large impact on the story as a whole.
