How it feels

A slow, text-driven journey through a branching narrative that feels like reading a novel, with a quiet, introspective atmosphere.

What players say

Players describe it as a short, text-based choose-your-own-adventure with a book-like interface. It offers multiple endings, but many routes lead quickly to death. The writing has typos and awkward translations, and the lack of a save feature makes replaying tedious. Players agree it is only worth buying at a steep discount.
