SteamDeck then PC with mouse
6 hours (bad ending)
I want to tell everyone to play this game, but you are probably better off watching a video of someone else playing it.
Great setting, it's an atmospheric puzzle horror game with terrible controls. I started the game out on the SteamDeck and finished the first 2 chapters with it. On the 3rd chapter I had to switch to PC. I read other views that mouse is the best way to play this game. Mouse made it much easier to control but it still was frustrating at times.
For a game with bad controls, you need to have very good timing for certain puzzles. You'll die a lot in those parts. Some of the puzzles felt luck based, especially chapter 4's boss fight. Good thing for video recording and .25 playback speed. Even at .25 speed, it was hard.
Even with all those complaints the setting makes up for so much of it, which is why I said you're probably better off watching someone else play it. It's a great looking storybook game. I played The Liar Princess and the Blind Prince last year which I enjoyed a lot. I plan on checking out other games by Masayuki Furuya. I like his art style for games.
