What players say
In a world full of AI slop, sadness and expectation - this game spoke to me in ways I cant explain. Its so calming, the pacing is amazing and the beautiful storyline carry a deeper meaning than you'd ever expect. I love that this game is made with love and care, everything has a meaning. I really recommend this game to everyone. Please, more games like this!
Complete masterpiece. The art style, visuals, music and the story were just amazing. If you like Jim Burton´s animations, you´ll love this..
One of the most beautiful games I've ever played. From visuals, to score, to the story. You can see all the work that has been put into this game and it just moves you. One of my favorite games if not the top one.
