There is just too much fan-service and sexual jokes and less of a deep-story, at least, that's what I thought...

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Paired with a very good OST & solid voice acting for every character, Chaos;Child goes down as one of (if not the) best presented VN's I've ever played.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
I intend this post to be mostly informational, rather than deeply analytical, so I will be short on the visuals and soundtrack by saying the soundtrack is to be expected of Takeshi ♥♥♥, and the visual shaders are particularly impressive.

And the last thing – there is a pretty interesting Tips menu, which you can use as the game’s encyclopedia.
