El Psy Kongroo.

Steins;Gate is an amazing visual novel that I believe you must go through it completely blind.

The first few chapters gave me a complete false impression of what this story was going to be about up until halfway through the game where it just does a complete 180 and I was just glued to my screen waiting to see what was going to happen next.
The mechanics of time travel which are a really hard thing to write without any plot holes and such stick the landing perfectly something I have never seen being pulled off that well before (it even got me researching science articles and shit since it got me so intrigued lmao).

My only real complaint with the game is how they handle lukako because they dropped the ball hard on lukako's character every scene made me actually uncomfortable especially with one scene with okabe (you know which one if you've played the game) that I unironically couldn't sit through all that and just skipped it altogether.

The rest of the cast I really enjoyed with they were all written really well and I enjoyed seeing them on screen all the time even if all they did was just casually talking with each other.

Final rating:
9/10
