What players say

Players describe it as a short, brutal visual novel inspired by The Lion King with no meaningful choices. Most agree the story is relentlessly sad and graphic, and the single ending is the same regardless of what the player picks. Many call it unfinished, noting typos and a runtime under an hour.
