What players say
The atmosphere in this one is very depressing and macabre in a good way. The world feels so sinister as you try to navigate this cute anime girl through a world that wants her dead and it adds a lot to the horror in this one. I also did enjoy the general puzzles and gameplay, even if it sometimes felt a tiny bit slow. There's some memorably dark moments, especially towards the end, that have stuck with me even...

I bought this game mostly for nostalgia, since i had already played it back in mid-2018. I didn't remembered how fun the mechanics were and how incredibly relaxing the game was. I'm so happy i bought this game, so happy to revisit the story, i miss this kind of game nowadays. Sometimes all you really need is to relax and watch a tragic story to reflect while doing puzzles.
It's the third time I 100% this game The biggest "con" is that even in time attack it's slow a lot of times But everything else is so peak... Sounds, graphics, gameplay, level design (has is issue sometime) is very good
