What players say
Players praise the story and characters but are split on the execution, many say the food and sanity mechanics feel tacked on, the third act feels rushed, and the time limit on maps discourages exploration. Some note the game started as a Fire Emblem 8 romhack and retains rough edges like awkward save options and slow battles.
