How it feels

A slow, story-driven visual novel that feels like returning to a simpler, ancient era through fully voiced dialogue and a wistful theme song.

What players say

A visual novel with beautiful art and Chinese voice acting, but players say the English translation is poor and the story is lackluster. The minigames feel dated and out of place, and there is little gameplay beyond clicking through dialogue.
