How it feels

A gentle, story-driven journey of self-discovery with light romantic and comedic moments, paced like a visual novel.

What players say

Players find the story bland and the characters generic, with many noting the male characters are rude and that relationships feel forced. The game is short, about two to three hours, and has only three endings. Players split on whether it is a decent start to a series or just dull.
