How it feels

A unsettling, dreamlike journey through a troubled mind, blending dark psychological horror with moments of deceptive cheerfulness.

What players say

Players describe it as a very short, abstract visual novel with a confusing plot and multiple endings. The English translation is widely noted as stilted, making it hard to tell deliberate surrealism from translation errors. Some enjoy the eerie atmosphere and replay value from branching endings, while others find it too brief and unsatisfying.
