March 2025
Literally the best story game out there, such a shame it's so underrated and for some reason barely anyone knows this game. In this game your choices actually matter unlike in most story games where only your final decision matters. Even your seemingly small decisions matter, after playing trough the game and starting a new playtrough I got different choices right in the beginning even when I didn't know what I did that much different. I also love the graphics, this unique 2D gameplay the game has, the art and the story. (Don't get confused by my low hours I did in fact play trough this game, just not on my account because I was a broke teenager, but as soon as I got money to buy the game I did it just to support the creator and to have the ability to play trough this hidden gem again.) 10/10 game.

These are some fine cats. Oh ummm... the horror and the darkness are alright too. I do, however, wish the developers invented a 'skip unread' button. Going through the entire game four times takes a toll on the fingers.

The game has a few glitches here and there, but it's playable. The gameplay and the concept of the SPIN system are very interesting and enjoyable. The story is very deep and dark, with almost only bad endings. I recommend to buy on sale!

In my opinion this is a game that's only worth to buy during sale. Overall it's an interesting experience and I don't have any complaints about the story or gameplay, plus I really love the music, art and atmosphere. I genuinely enjoyed playing this, I think it's beautifully done but wish that the game was a bit longer, since due to lack of gameplay/puzzles I believe that at least the story could've been more extensive. However, as MANY people have already mentioned, this game unfortunately suffers from technical issues. For me there were luckily only occasional minor bugs, which mainly caused the textbox and character sprites to look messy for a few moments, one time my game also got stuck on one location (it was impossible to click anything) but I solved it by simply going to the main menu and loading the game again. Yet other players have reported major bugs that fully prevented them from proceeding with the game at all and apparently the devs even stopped responding to those reports so it's assumable that they've abandoned this project by now. I think it's also unknown what exactly causes those game-breaking bugs and why it only affects certain players, so get the game on your own risk lol.
