Hanako in the abandoned school

It's fine. If you have played any Chilla's Art games, this is clearly an iteration of that particular indie horror walking sim formula, though it's severely lacking the level of charm and polish you get out of Chilla's Art and the best imitators. Some of the event triggers in this are odd and refuse to work if you do things extremely out of order (I am a speedrunner, of course I tried to break the game). Thankfully for casual players there seems to be a fail-safe timer if you lock yourself out of a progression trigger for the ending, though it is a bit long. I wish there were more Hanako events to fill the space if you happened to find yourself in that artificial waiting room. The space of the school is interesting to explore at first, but not very large and limited by progression unlocks. Overall, for a game that only took 30 minutes to complete and usually costs only a dollar, these nitpicks aren't a dealbreaker. Fine to play once if you are really into this particular niche of horror walking sims, or a streamer who reacts to these kinds of games. You could get a couple decent scares out of it.

4/10 For the price I think this is a okay game. There is a lot of exploration but not much to interact with, or look at. Everything is very bland, tidy, and empty for an abandoned school. I mean lots of empty space. That just makes it feel less immersive. And despite that it can be a challenge to figure out where to go next, which is a little frustrating. However there is a save feature you can use when ever, so it's okay to take breaks. The sounds are good. I like the story. I would like the ability to increase the sensitivity, because it does get a little awkward when maneuvering at times.

It's fine—not a world-shattering experience, but definitely better than some of the initial impressions might suggest. The English translation is a bit wonky, which isn’t surprising given the title, but it doesn’t detract too much from the overall experience. The story itself is surprisingly sad, and while the "twists" are pretty obvious well in advance, it still managed to keep me entertained. The way the story unfolds, along with figuring out how to progress, kept me engaged for the full hour it took to finish. Overall, it’s a decent, if short, experience worth checking out if you enjoy narrative-driven games with puzzles.

very good for price.

Not bad, not great. A game about a son going to his dead father's alma mater which his dying father warned him not to go to. Once you arrive at the school grounds you are stuck and have to slowly find clues about the dark history of that school and why it covered up a murder and a suicide. More or less a walking-simulator with a couple of moments where you have to escape a really slow moving ghost, which is easy. Some of my issues were the terrible grammar/spelling errors and at times the game feels empty with minimal sound effects and not a lot of music. It's super cheap so I'd recommend playing it, takes about an hour to complete and there are a few missable achievements.

Okish cheap about 1 hour long horror game.
