How it feels

A frantic, doomed sprint through a pitch-black forest where the player's efforts are ultimately meaningless.

What players say

Players praise this free short visual novel for its unsettling romantic story and obsessive yuri characters. Many say it can be finished in a single sitting and that replaying all three routes reveals an ending that loops back on itself.
