A serious, choice-driven narrative where you shape a girl's personality as she fights to break free in a chaotic, technologically advancing city.

What players say

Players praise the story and characters, with a combat system built around combos rather than standard commands. The game offers multiple endings and a connected prequel, Crimson Light. A common complaint is the lack of proper controller support. Some players note it stands out from typical RPG Maker titles.
