Pros:
Very well written story. Top heavy character cast but the ones who are good (Date, Aiba, Boss, Iris, Mizuki) are great loveable characters. The game is carried by its mystery and how unpredictable and hard to piece together it is, it really makes it satisfying as you start to unravel the truth. This game has some really great moments.

Cons:
Extremely cringey at times. Sometimes it's failed comedy attempts, sometimes it's something actually serious happening handled very questionably.
Outside of the characters I listed earlier, the cast is pretty weak.
Random visual bugs at times which really serve to break immersion. They weren't insanely frequent, but happened on multiple occasions and are pretty impossible to ignore.

Overall, it's a good game. I had my doubts at the start, but the game scales well. I'm glad to have gone down the Uchikoshi rabbit hole, it was a fun month between the Zero Escape series and this.
