How it feels
A slow, methodical RPGMaker adventure about a retired hacker seeking revenge inside a virtual world, with heavy pixel-art atmosphere and a deliberate, story-focused pace.

What players say
Players praise the story and character customization but split on the game: combat is repetitive and grinding is a slog, and unskippable cutscenes frustrate some. The sequel's performance is so broken that long-time players recommend enjoying this first game only.
