I dunno. This is sort of cute and quirky but it feels like the whole of the game is just an excuse to get to the eventual twist ending.
It could have been a more nuanced exploration of identity and determinism or whatever, but it really just feels like they had this random idea for an ending, never thought about it further than that, and just made a weird rpg to get to that point.
I know it was directed by one of the Love De Lic dudes, but it definitely lacks the warmth and substance of something like Moon.
That said the skill system sort of reminds me of the SaGa games which is, like, sort of funny but also sort of appropriate.
This game mostly reminded me that I still have to play Michigan: Report From Hell (also directed by Akira Ueda). As a kid I always used to see ads for it on TV but could never actually find the game in stores.
