How it feels
A quietly earnest late-90s Japanese RPG that unfolds at a deliberate pace through a science fiction world, carrying the measured, traditional sensibility of its SNES-era developer roots.

What players say
A surreal Japan-only psychodrama RPG about an astronaut with multiple personalities exploring a malevolent dog-populated Mars; a bizarre, unsettling cult classic prized for its uniquely oppressive, dread-soaked atmosphere.
