{ Graphics }— ☐ You forget what reality is ☐ Beautiful ☐ Good ☑ Decent ☐ Bad ☐ Don‘t look too long…Managed to get all the endings (there's four, I think) and they all made me cry in different ways!The game's atmosphere is playful and friendly and really enjoyable.The last act becomes melancholic very swiftly and executes it well.Why it fits
Good fit if you want a short, atmospheric, emotional RPG with exploration. It has a strong atmosphere, an emotional story, and a compact scope that suits players who want a shorter adventure.
Who might skip it
Skip it if you dislike repetition, grind, or technical roughness.
