Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
A genuinely enjoyable experience that feels just too short and rushed in my opinion, and with a story that's enjoyable and interesting but that ultimately doesn't deliver on what it could philosophically.
48 of 57 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
There is everything that a seasoned fan of visual novels will like: a breathtaking story, likeable characters, amazing voice acting and music, gorgeous art, and some plot twists that will make you wonder if the reality is really what it seems and if anybody can be trusted.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Visually, the game adopts a refined anime-inspired art style that emphasizes expressive character sprites and carefully composed CG illustrations.
