I came into this game with no expectations, but it was a really fun experience. Extremely solid voice acting, good direction, and a well handled story that would have been extremely easy to overdo, but hit the right notes. Unexpected, but extremely enjoyable.

[h1] I would recommend this VN to anyone who wants to enjoy a complete story with several twists integrated into the narrative naturally, also to you who enjoy ensemble cast (e.g. Avengers!) or are simply interested in character designs.

There are many fight scenes that can get your blood pumping with just simple, clear CGs + A1-tier music! [*]All the environment designs are really in place and rendered with full attention. The paper-cut style that strikes the eye is very much enjoyable even surrounded by the rich background.  [*]The story has several interesting twists but not too many to fit in the short time length.

Short and sweet sci-fi VN that benefits greatly from the full voice acting. Doesn't overstay its welcome but also manages to squeeze in a few twists and turns to keep the reader's attention.

Amazing game and very creative combination of the visual novel and cinematic storytelling. The music is very good and fits the game's different types of scenes very well. The story is interesting and the characters are compelling.

It has a great plot, cast, soundtrack, script, and so much more. While it did take me only three hours to complete, I feel it is 100% worth the mere seven dollars it costs to buy this game.
