Such a sweet little game. It feels less like playing and more like curling up with a gentle, comforting love story for an evening. Everything is designed with so much care. The soft artwork, the lovely little details and the calm music create such a warm and peaceful atmosphere. What I especially loved is the way the story shows how even the smallest choices and changes can quietly shape an entire life. It is simple, but surprisingly touching, and there is something very beautiful about watching those little moments unfold. It is definitely a very short experience, but for under €5 I think that is perfectly fair. If you are looking for something cozy, romantic and relaxing, this is a lovely little game to spend some time with. Soft, charming and wonderfully comforting. ♡
It's a good story and it breaks my heart to read that it's based on real events . I've played a bunch of story-branching games and this one was not bad at all! I really enjoyed some details in how the game "remembers" choices and helps you find new paths . I really encourage to spend an hour of your time playing this, not only for the good story, but you'll absolutely gain something from it, I assure you.
