A bit boring, not for me in comparison to some of the others. The OST and visuals were nice as usual.1 found this helpful
exactly as it says on the tin/bag. short psychological horror vn. (i personally really liked this story and seeing each ending)
This creator's games are great for 100% achievements and the story is always good, short, and interesting. The art is always good and after playing the other four games in the series....all of them great and worth buying...I recommend the complete bundle and playing them one after the other but this is one of the shorter ones and one of the ones with endings....I'll just say that....I was jealous of this guy in the beginning sometimes you feel like these characters got a good thing going for them but remember it's a horror game.....10/10....I am not even sad or anything I can't think of anybody like this creator except for maybe the other surrealist visual novels on steam and RPG maker games. But this collection is the best collection not for replay but for a few hours of nonstop fascination.
if you were raised by your grandparents, prepare to be depressed beyond reprieve (amazing soundtrack and writing. absolutely stunning visuals, one of a kind)
As others have mentioned, each new game from VAINSANE gets better in overall tone and writing. This one was a lot more depressing to me too. Though I only go the one ending since loading saves just freezes the program on my system, and skipping text also does the same. orz Still, I liked it!
I must say this one is special, the environment and atmosphere it gives feels very surreal, the story was interesting , tho at first its kinda complex but you'll get the hang of it eventually. the implant idea and everything else happening was quite depressing to say the least this game is around 40 min long i'd def suggest this game , it is worth a shot overall 7/10
