Her Love, Like Poison is a kinetic yuri Visual Novel that blends dark, unsettling themes with a story of toxic romance.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Edit: ALSO the soundtrack is perfect and does a great job at really cementing the dour moody tone that pervades the whole experience, I don't know much about about music so I can't offer much specific commentary other than that it really FEELS like an impending suicide.

I really like the art style of this game - it's surprisingly detailed while still being simple.
