While not my least favorite game I've ever played, definitely the most disappointing I have after all the hype. Despite being praised by many as ~one of the best RPG Maker titles~ and ~proof the engine can create good games~, it doesn't seem to feature any of the things that make the engine great. I felt like this game wanted to be a movie.

While I wish I could say I would have enjoyed the game much more as a visual novel, I wouldn't have, because I also hated the story. The main characters were grating, and the premise and eventual happily ever after seemed hinged on disregard and disrespect towards an autistic woman. I'm still planning on playing the sequels, though, because it's possible they'll delve deeper into the ethics of what the scientists are doing and retroactively solve many of my problems with To The Moon.
