Good short game, you can rush it in 5 hours, or take your time with a 10 hours run if you click every little thing and read every dialog of every npc like I did. There's 2 endings but you can see both in a single run by just making a save file at the last bit of the game and reloading that save file to see the other ending (you get a visual warning to save before you activate a ending so you can't miss it). As a side note I want to mention I really liked the way this game was translated. Yes, translated, not localized. You get the full experience with names like Ojou-chan and its meaning in parenthesis like "Hello Ojou-chan (young lady)" and then it's up to you to remember what that means when they keep using it. All places, characters' names and lore objects are handled that way. If you are a seasoned weeb you will have no issues with this. Overall a 9/10 game. Good story, good sfx, good ambience music, just a tiny bit forceful on the plot points.

How shall I put it? The game felt more like a visual novel than a RPG with how much of reading content it had and also the plot was certainly very interesting for me to the point it actually made me push past my limit to sit and play the whole game in one go instead of breaking it down into sessions. The sound track oh my, I would cherish it for rest of my life and the whole enviornment that the game presents was immersive. The game had few jumpscares and trust me some of them got me (Not in a aaaah!! way but ooh damn!!). Although I believe for a seasoned reader the plot might be very simple or predictable (that I am definitely not) but it was quite enjoyable. Maybe it's just me or the plot at some places felt rushed but it was not bad I believe just something I felt... Overall I'd rate the game 8/10? maybe 7.5? aah I wouldn't bother with that anyway it was a good exprienece and time well spent.

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
