How it feels

A slow, nostalgic walk through a lovingly detailed 1990s Chinese small town, where gentle pixel art and concise dialogue quietly build a deep emotional story.

What players say

Players praise the emotional father-daughter story and gorgeous pixel art, but many warn the English translation is riddled with errors and incomplete. The game is very short at around 3 hours, with slow scene transitions and limited interaction beyond walking and talking.
