I was in between recommending and not recommending, but I suppose it's still a decent game. The premise was good in the beginning, but in the middle it got a little repeatative and frankly a little boring. I was just playing to see it till the end and actually the ending , in my opinion, could be a little better. However overall it was well thought out, the idea was good, and the comedy was entertaining enough.

The story is really beautiful, even though it made me very sad. The world is very charming and cute, as if it sprang from a child's imagination, yet it's also eerie, complex, and menacing. The game isn't as easy as it seems and, in my opinion, has some challenging parts, but it's definitely worth the experience.

Y'all hate on this too much. The plot is not that hard to follow and there is a timeline overview for those who need it. The dialogue is fitting of a narrative driven story. Translation issue where? This was a lovely game set in a curious world with whimsical art. Very clever premise. 8/10
