This game is a product of love, and the gameplay is obviously inspired by 'To the Moon'
Good:
- lovely voice by the narrator
- amazing, eye-pleasing pixel art
- soothing and relaxing piano music
- interesting take on an adventure story
Bad:
- to the most part, the writing was okay. There should be more twists and turns in the conversations as character interactions are part of the core gameplay. Most of the time, words/phrases were too casual, straightforward or skippable.
- for the story development, it was slow. For my taste, twists or important parts should be introduced sooner before my interest/attention died out.
- when the game asked me to talk to nps, i had to walk around aimlessly. This could be fixed with a map that show where those npcs are. It was disappointing to go to an area and finally learned that no npcs were there.
- some sound effects didn’t work as intended. For example, certain part of the story should be scary, but it turned out to sound just okay.
- at some point the game felt like a life-sim, and at other times it was like a visual novel. But most of the time, it actually asked me to walk around. This could be compensated with interesting mini games or side activities or some very light-hearted puzzles. There should be more variety to it. Not just conversing with npcs and walking.
Conclusion:
The game gave me a very chilling and soothing experience at least for the parts I played. But from my experience, I hate to say it’s not justifiable to recommend it to you.
