What players say

Players praise the production value, full voice acting, and live 2d art for a free visual novel, but split on the pacing: many find the early story slow and the dialogue overly wordy. The story is widely considered incomplete, with an abrupt ending and unresolved plot threads, leaving some disappointed despite the ambitious worldbuilding.
