What players say
Players describe it as a brief walking simulator with a bittersweet love story and beautiful watercolor visuals, but disagree on the narrative quality, some find it compelling and emotional, others call it predictable and bland. The need to play through the entire game multiple times to see all endings divides players, and the developer's closure is noted as the studio's final game.
