How it feels

A tense, mystery-driven visual novel set in a historical period of ideological conflict, with a slowly creeping psychological unease.

What players say

Players describe a short visual novel with two viewpoints that criticizes old-time foot binding and superstition. The story works, but choices are punishing and arbitrary: wrong picks lead to sudden, unexplained deaths, which hurts immersion. Many note the AI art is visible but not ugly, and the ending feels rushed.
