What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players praise the game's compelling story, atmospheric world-building, charming characters with distinct personalities, and engaging plot twists, though opinions vary on pacing. The main criticisms are that it's extremely dialogue-heavy with long unskippable cutscenes that make progression slow, technical issues in later episodes, and a feeling that the narrative drags in the final chapters, with some feeling the story should have concluded earlier.
Honestly, the game is good. It has good arts, a LOT of dialogues, a good atmosphere, a nice posibility of exploring. But it's just not for me. I'd recommend it to those people that like really long games that want you to sit by them a whole day just reading one dialogue and watching one custcene (long dialogue) for about 30 minutes, if not more. Yeah, there are saves, but you can't save once you started dialogue and read it until the very end. Characters are peculiar, every one has its own charisma, and negative sides also. There are 5 episodes, i couldn't complete even one in 5 hours, so make your decision and have fun1 found this helpful
Amazing game I play little part of game but its looks goods thanks for the game 👍1 found this helpful
I did NOT expect this game to be so good. The gameplay, the story, the plot twists… everything was really nice and fun. Boss fights were challenging, and frustratingly fun. I like how the character arcs of each of the characters progressed over the episodes. However, I do wish the game had ended somewhere around ep3. The last two episodes didn’t hit as well as the first three. Felt a little dragged. The entirety of ep5, I had faced issues with the game being laggy and crashing frequently. I hadn’t faced this with any of the other episodes. Overall, a good game. I’m looking forward to playing more from the devs. ^^
RPG Maker strikes again! This is yet another low effort pixelcrap RPG Maker asset flip made with the RPG Maker game construction kit (designed for children to use). Almost every RPG Maker asset flip is just a bunch of stock RPG Maker assets mixed with cringe-inducing high school anime club dropout fan-fiction. The "developer" here didn't know how to make a JRPG with RPG Maker, which is the only thing it's for, and instead, worse, copy + pasted out a primitive top down "adventure" game that's more e-book than actual game you can play... this is a game you have to read. And wow... the writing is painfully cringey high school anime club dropout fan-fiction writing about the author and his relationships with his imaginary anime friends. The plot follows the author being trapped with people so they have to be his friends, in an underground research facility, so you WASD your way around the asset flipped RPG Maker backdrop to reveal more and more cringey e-book writing. Like other RPG Maker "games", the game engine is extremely low quality. It displays badly in fullscreen, and has no real graphics settings or HD support. It's not up to the same standard we expect from a modern PC gam…
Not enough forcefemming, I thought Akio was going to be made to wear a pretty dress, I was sorely dissapointed.
Lovely story
