The best story in my life. And that`s only first ending. I will update this when I will complete true ending. That was beautiful.

We live in a third-dimensional plane. We can see planets, galaxies, suns—hundreds of billions of galaxies—photographed universes. We live in this incredible space-time continuum, and here we are on this planet. Einstein’s physics show there are at least 12 dimensions. Now, top scientists and billionaires are saying this reality is a kind of false hologram, an artificial projection. Computers are even detecting tension points where it seems to be artificially projected, with gravity bleeding into this universe—what they call dark matter. So it’s as if we’re like a thought or dream, a wisp inside some computer program, or in the mind of God. And the evidence for this keeps coming out. Our third dimension is a kind of launchpad. The math shows that this level is the primal sea where everything happens, with Earth acting like an egg full of potential. But there are sub-levels beneath the third dimension that resonate with dark and destructive things, always trying to push upward. At the same time, the best of our species already reaches into higher consciousness—the fifth, sixth dimension. Yet there’s this big war trying to destroy humanity, because humanity has free will. Evil is allowed to contend with us, not just good. Some people are psychically and genetically wired to interface with this vast, multi-dimensional universe. And no energy is ever truly destroyed; it continues on. Our very bodies are like communal organisms—made up of the memories, victories, failures, loves, and struggles of all our ancestors. But it’s more than genetics—it’s like an electrochemical antenna, proven to connect with higher and lower dimensions. So, our “bodysuit” isn’t just ours. It carries the strength, will, love, and struggles of our families and ancestors. That’s why we can experience so much and see in so many directions. The elites are obsessed with transcendence and eternal life, but not all of them are the same—some are good, some are bad, most are a mix. Ancient religions and shamans have always said the same thing: there are good entities and bad ones. The good don’t impose themselves on us—they empower. The bad, though, want to dominate, so they organize for power. Across cultures—from Tibet to Mesoamerica, Egypt to the Druids—you find the same descriptions: dark entities, often appearing like elves or horned beings, and also benevolent ones who rarely interfere unless asked. The truth is, powerful consciousness doesn’t want to control others—it wants to help them grow. Evil, though, is more seductive, faster, easier. The elites believe contact isn’t happening on this third-dimensional plane—it’s interdimensional. Gates, not ships, are how beings travel here. They believe humanity is in a race: to merge with machines, transcend, and leave behind what they call a failed species. But this is a false vision. They project their own darkness onto humanity, instead of realizing life is a test meant to build us up. Evil’s message is always the same: demoralize, stop having children, believe humans are bad, and that the world is better without us. It’s an agenda. For example, Google was founded with the goal of creating an artificial system—a hive-mind superintelligence built from the thoughts of billions of people connected to the internet. Our very consciousness would feed into it, building a computer with predictive powers like a crystal ball. But the danger is clear: once you know the future, you can manipulate the present to control it. That would mean the end of true free will and the rise of a hive-mind AI. Scripture warns that pharmakeia—ritual drugs and sorcery—always lead to destruction. Evil enters quickly through those doors, while good takes longer to reach because it honors free will. Like Yoda said, the dark side is quicker, easier, more seductive. But humans are incredibly powerful beings. Our brains can tune into the lowest dimensions and the highest. We’re like hive organisms, living only moments in cosmic time, transmitting our experiences upward in a greater chain of life. The elites know this, and they’re trying to keep us from unlocking that potential. They turn instead to rituals, drugs, and machines to connect with lower entities who promise them power. But those forces want to consume us, not uplift us. At the end of the day, humanity is at a crossroads. We’re being tested. Do we align with the divine free will that builds us up, or do we fall into the trap of a system that drains us and leads to destruction? That’s the decision before our species.

This is a sequel to Chaos:Head so keep that in mind if you are interested in this game but haven't played that one. If you enjoyed the previous game, you will most likely enjoy this one. I found the game to be quite good. My only criticism is that there are some scenes/scenarios/etc where I found the main character's narration to be weak and flawed. I used a fan translation and I would recommend using one. The creators of the game are known for having poor English translations in their games.

Just too goddamn tragic and bittersweet, cherish the slice of life scenes till you can.... I honestly can't say much about how I emotionally feel about this VN, it is not that deep and it is probably just me, but whenever I try to think, my mind just becomes a haze, so as of now I'm not sure if I love it or hate it or like it or dislike it, I only know that it was worth my time and certainly not meh/mid. Edit - One thing I'm sure about is that I found the story to be very good and interesting, as good as Steins;Gate, I'm just not sure how I feel emotionally about it(like I mentioned above)
