✦ AI summary
Players appreciate this indie horror ARG for its engaging mystery story and puzzle elements, with particular praise for the English translation and the variety of creature evolutions to discover. The main frustrations are that some puzzles require very specific keywords or answers that aren't always intuitive without consulting the guide, and there's a privacy concern where the streamer mode doesn't fully prevent location data from being visible in certain scenes.
It was a fun experience for what it is. I did have to rely on the guide hints because sometimes they want specific answers/keywords to progress to the next part. It was fun piecing together the story and completing it and finding different evolutions for the anima. I will warn that despite streamer mode being turned on, there's still a particular part of the game (I won't spoil) that stills shows your general area of location. So, if you want to be private about that, probably just record a playthrough and block that part out. (Unless it is random and I got really unlucky with it showing where I may be located).2 found this helpful
Japan Made Horror ARG about virtual pets. The english translation is good so far, and im loving the story + the small puzzles here and there. definitely worth the price if you want a spooky little mystery. edit: i've "completed" it, mostly with a help of the guide. it's alright, but don't expect the world out of it. it's a very small title with a lot of complex little stuff going on.1 found this helpful
