This game is sooo gorgeous. I loved the art so, so much. Despite at times being a little confused by the story (I think that was very much a me thing lol 😅) - I was still so intrigued! It was really cool seeing how the story changed depending on which CD you listened to first. I also loved the idea of the music literally transporting the Narrator!
My favorite character was probably the Mermaid - she was equal parts interesting, fun, and terrifying 😂 Although, I adored the character design for all of the characters.
My favorite ending was probably the non-ending! It was the first one I got and completely caught me off guard. I thought it was really creative!!
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and your playthrough! Yes, the non-ending seems to be most well-received one for most of the people who've provided feedback. I'm happy about that since I was initially uncertain about how players would react to an "ending" like that.
I've never seen a game do that before! It definitely took me a little bit to figure out that I didn't just break the game or something, but once I figured it out I thought it was really clever lol.
Great mysterious visual novel, love how we can make dozens of choices, it really feels like a conversation, the characters are straightforward and very fitting of the setting that it's on itself, really interesting.
I am personally not a big fan of the amnesic main character BUT it definitely works when you are a mysterious ethereal being instead of Jerry from human resources.
*slight spoilers review?*
Love the background and monsters design, visually and personality wise, it goes from confusion to fear real quick when they try to get you because you are lost, definitely a welcomed new flavor of spooks for this season.
The music is also on point, specially for those "Oh, I just F up right?" moments.
I used to feel the same way about the amnesia trope, but writing this VN helped me understand why it can be a useful narrative device, particularly in stories where one wants to emphasize the feelings of being lost and disoriented. Thank you so much for sharing your in-depth thoughts and your playthrough! Much appreciated.
