How it feels

A solitary, narrative-driven point-and-click visual novel that feels like unraveling a sci-fi mystery from multiple character perspectives at a measured pace.

What players say

Players praise the sophisticated, twist-filled narrative and philosophical depth, with many calling it one of the best Chinese sci-fi mystery games. The slow first two chapters and noticeable AI-generated art divide opinion, but most say the story overshadows the visual flaws.
