Story

36 of 68 sampled reviews raised it
The story is heartbreaking to read (doubly so if you've read MalViolence ;;) and the final ending sequence is something truly special to experience.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
9 of 68 sampled reviews raised it
The presentation and sound design is top notch and even more polished than the previous entry.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
8 of 68 sampled reviews raised it
The contrast is what makes it hit: the art style looks almost “innocent” (kinda European BD / cartoonish), while the content is anything but.
