What players say
Players praise the gothic art and cozy atmosphere, with the ghost cat hint system a highlight. The investigation is short, around 3 hours, with five endings but only one good one. Many note the puzzles are mostly fair but a few rely on trial and error or weak logic. The user interface draws complaints, and the English translation is rough in places.
