Good game +++4 found this helpful
Hello :) So, you are here to know my opinion. If you should play it. Okay... hmm.. Yes, I'd say you should. This is a pretty decent visual novel. With nice plot, sometimes tense moments, sometimes unexpected turns, a bit of romance, a bit of death and a little of craziness. Your choices will matter, so pick them wisely. Lack of trust will bring the unexpected outcome at some point.3 found this helpful
Better than expected. It has a very well done Russian VA. Quite a nice story. A bit ridiculous but still OK to follow and possible to enjoy. Not on Japanese VN level but from the Russian ones I played so far this one was very good. I will check for sure other VNs from this developer2 found this helpful
This was pretty interesting and I enjoyed the overall story. I didn't really know what to expect going into this, but after finishing up Umineko chapter 8 I was looking for something a little shorter and to the point. If you're looking for a mystery themed visual novel with some psychological elements to it, I would highly recommend this. It's not a major commitment, and I found the setting in Russia to be interesting and different from most visual novels I have played. It's kind of a sneak peek into a completely different culture. This isn't a perfect visual novel, but overall I'd recommend it and give it a 7.5/10. For what it is, it was highly enjoyable and worth my time.
Отличная история и озвучка, неплохие фоны, средненькая рисовка персонажей. Описание в текстах иногда расходятся с задниками. В целом ожидал худшего, а тут прям годнота годнота.
