Fun little short game. Remember following the game after a YouTube video a while back. Enjoyed the game, even if it was a little cliche to the story. Nice game, enjoyed my experience with it1 found this helpful
Game is fun and interesting and fast paced. It's very short. I am exploring all the content but cleared the main story. You know I don't know about the price....get it on sale but it's fun for when it's on sale...it was soooo good but toooooooooooooooooooooooo short!!!! Everything is fleshed out well kind of dreamy surrealistic simulation type visual novel. It's about an hour total I estimate. 7/10 - I took three points off for lack of important illustrations and shortness but honestly it's a MUST BUY FOR SOME PRETTY DARK HORROR SIMULATION WITH APPARENTLY TWO ENDINGS I FOUND. Take your medicine please as it is prescribed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
