An interesting game that was part of an incredible phenomenon in 2013 thanks to Tumblr. It even got enough of my attention to attempt to try its anime despite barely having started in the medium or being remotely interested in BL (I never completed it anyways) - that is how strong its strengths are, of which those are the character design, color palette, overall presentation of a dystopian world, user interface both in anime and ingame, a fluffy animal.

Saying anything else would only be ramblings, so I'll go straight to the point: if this game had longer playtime and different storyline for each character route it would have been a heavy VN contender. But it doesn't, and because of that, you experience the same things in all 5 routes. Yeah, more plot points get revealed, the characters themselves are dynamic so it's never completely the same... but knowing that it progresses and climaxes in the exact same way every time feels bad.

Apparently the fandisc fixes these pacing issues. I don't know if I should read it.
