A Masterpiece of Visuals, Sound, and Storytelling

When I first started playing, I thought it would be boring and unappealing because of its naïve aesthetic—but that was just a prejudice. From the second scene onward, it completely captured my attention. I discovered a game with stunning visuals, a charming soundtrack, incredible sound effects, and a truly spectacular story. Every time the screen turns red, accompanied by the sound effects, you feel the tension of making a decision that will mark a turning point in the characters’ lives. Captivating and thrilling at every moment, a true work of art.
