How it feels
A quiet, emotionally charged visual novel that leans into the tension of a forbidden friendship and the weight of divided worlds.

What players say
Players call the story emotionally devastating, with a friendship between a human girl and a birdling set in a world of prejudice. Choices clearly show which ending they unlock, and the five endings are memorable, though the story stays uniformly bleak. There is no voice acting, and the auto mode is slow.
