How it feels

You navigate a black-and-white manga-style high school visual novel, balancing ambition and romance through dialogue and choices, with a darkly humorous and noir-tinged tone.

What players say

Players are drawn to the unique black-and-white art style inspired by Junji Ito, but many criticize the protagonist as unlikable and the story as unfocused, mixing horror with dating sim elements. The lack of a proper fast-forward function and clunky save/load system frustrate repeated playthroughs, and long loading screens worsen the experience.
