  • The music is fabulous, the artwork was great as well as the plot
  • It's got great music, I recommend wearing ear buds when you play to get the full effect
  • The gameplay was unique and fun, but I didn't find the music to be overly memorable

  • The more time I put into it, the less I liked it and the less satisfying the story became
  • I don't regret my time with this game because I do love visual novels, but there are far better visual novels to play on the vita

  • If you're a visual novel or adventure game fan, than this is another excellent release for the Vita or PS4 that you should get.
  • I think this is definitely worth picking up and it's nice that more visual novels are being released stateside.

  • While the gameplay is very easy, the mystery is a bit lack luster from what i've seen
  • Allows you to relax and unwind while unraveling a deep mystery
  • But he did find himself in the middle of a good mystery so whatever its interesting to see where it goes next.
  • Now if you can accept the strangely crude writing the mystery itself is quite good

  • No one in the entire story acts like a normal human being.
  • This ended up being one the worst stories I've ever read in any medium.
  • Not that it matters really because the actual story is nonsense.
  • Amazing story, and more interactive than most visual novels
  • It's just too bad these systems aren't in a better game with a better story
  • Read remaining 12 reviews for story
