I recommend it if you enjoy denpa stories or would want to get into the genre. It's very light on the horror. Quite stylish, with an unusual (for VNs) Soviet setting. The cast is really endearing, and while the themes and their exploration weren't mindblowing to me (and pretty typical of the genre), I enjoyed its focus on medicalization.

I don't have it in me to review this product in full right now but it was wonderful. I'm probably going to donate. The game had some issues but I loved it nonetheless
