How it feels

A gentle, leisurely RPG where you gather ingredients, craft items, and explore a sun-bleached world at a meditative pace.

What players say

Players praise the cast and the serious story, but warn of a strict time limit that can lead to the bad ending on a first playthrough. The alchemy system is rewarding yet opaque for newcomers, and the first boss is a notorious difficulty spike.
