How it feels

A slow, methodical tactical RPG with a melancholic visual novel narrative and punishing difficulty.

What players say

Players love the story and world but warn the tactical combat is challenging and punishes poor planning. The Steam version is censored and missing a route. Players split on the pacing: some find it slow early, others enjoy the slow burn. Replaying routes means redoing every battle, which can feel tedious.
