A quiet, introspective visual novel where you walk through daily life weighed by anxious thoughts.

What players say

Players are split on this visual novel: some find its depiction of anxiety irresponsible and its story bland, while others appreciate the emotional beats and cute character designs. It also includes a heavy pet death scene that caught some off guard.
