How it feels
a low-stakes hidden-object investigation with a surreal twist, moving at a leisurely pace as you collect clues and cards.

What players say
Players praise the low price, great hidden object scenes, and painted backgrounds, but warn of a terrible English translation and cringe-worthy live action cutscenes. The game is short at 2-3 hours for the main story, has no map, and players split on whether the charm of its bad acting outweighs the tedium of backtracking.
