Great visuals and decent writing. I think I'd like it more if every character didn't have the same millennial sense of humor. It's hard to be immersed when the immortal beings or 300 year old starts making jokes a college art student would make.

WARNING: This is a movie; it is not a game. (I'm dead serious about this.) At first, I tried to embrace it as a visual novel, but it is not. There is a story, and you must click stuff to play the scenes... And that's all. You take the role of the cameraman in this film, You will never interact at all with any of the characters because you don't exist; you just watch stuff happening. Sometimes, you can explore the coffee shop to find "hidden scenes" or "hidden lore". But even then, they are not scenes per se, they are floating text. It doesn't have voice acting, so it feels even less like scenes and more like glorified logs. In short, this is the equivalent of watching a movie scene by scene, in a Powerpoint format and some times you are asked to move from your sit to click the mouse and keep things going. WHY am I recommending this still? Because, OH BOY, IT [IS] A GOOD MOVIE. Or at least I think it is... But it is not worth your $19.99, I don't have idea why this is advertised at all as a visual novel. Just... Wait for a discount.

Highly recommended for people who loves reading texts or generally, novels, if not, then it's best to stay away. Yep. STAY AWAY. You'll be bombarded with so many texts and the way this game tells the story is unique too, it has this cinematic style of storytelling which made me intrigued and find this game a hidden gem. I even "voice acted" while playing because of the cinematography style to immerse myself. XD The character design is very attractive, cel shade never fails to disappoint. I loved Maddy's design (MC) The story is about life and death, acceptance for the departed. Game is too deep, so many heavy wording that might throw you off balance. Best played on cold evenings while having a warm drink. ----- PS: You can "animate" in the game too. AND design robot NPCs

For some reason I thought this had a more game-play element than a visual novel. Nonetheless I'm really curious where this is going and enjoying the story so far. It's also a great way to wind down in the evening.
