221 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's presentation is largely welcoming and much of the dialogue is humorous, but it is immediately apparent that the narrative contains dark elements.
Gameplay

106 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
This whole experience takes 5 chapters to wrap up - 4 investigation chapters and one conclusion chapter - and contains 5 different endings according to your ability to conclude the interrelation of all happenings during the last chapter, presenting you genuine replayability.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
44 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The art style is very reminiscent of the Mother series and despite manual control over characters, it is effectively a visual novel.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
38 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Each character was crafted so well in terms of character build, not two of them are ever alike.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
33 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack and plot are amazing, the game rarely crashes, and you will always be interested with what's going on in the game.
