What players say

Players are sharply divided on this free visual novel. Many call it a Breaking Bad-inspired story with a sudden plot twist that some find brilliant and others say is mishandled. Frequent complaints include a lack of content warnings for dark themes and noticeable spelling and grammar issues.
