    v0.2.3

    TL;DR - Story/Design/Characters all seem well done but fails on the Engine(RPGM) choice making the game a broken chore - If your giving this a try, save often

    So ill start with the Engine. RPGM is a buggy mess even when a game is designed the basic way. This game, while is very impressive what has been done with it, is even more painful to play. i tried 4 times and RPGM crashes each time, no auto save, having to use 2 hands to play, unskippable transitions & clicking through text also causes high chance of crash.
    Some of my favourite games are on RPGM, but just isn't anywhere near as buggy or painful to get through.

    The worst thing is, everything else about the game is done quite well. Has its own quirkiness, great characters with a range of personalities and definitely has that higher tier feel that should put it in the top 1%.


    Remaking & learning Renp'y would probably be faster than to try to have it work optimally on RPGM.

    It's ok.

    Pros:
    Character models are great
    animations are good

    Inbetween:
    story is ok

    Cons:
    The key layout is kind of annoying, like only the arrow keys are used to move. Then you need to click to get around the map. Escape key doesn't do anything so you have to click on the phone icon. Would be nice to be able to use WASD keys for movement.
    Lack of variety in the animations, which may change over time since it's a fairly new game.

    If you are playing the game and get lost on what to do next. Open up the phone and go to the inventory. There are character cards in there you can use to figure out what to do next.

    character models are plus in this game and a good story and i like a lot of things in game, but the downside is the lack of information in the quest information and what to do next also there are soo many time wasting animations in game like when you sleep i takes like 10 sec to make it to morning like that and alll, overall a good game

    I literally see no reason for why are people giving this game such score.

    I'm used to Dan's games i spected low quality.

    I was greatly impressed with a new way of moving around and way more characters than usual, but still, gameplay is incredibly grindy, sometimes the story doesn't make sense and overall it's just a whole waste of time.

    A good game must meet 3 conditions:

    - Good plot structure (story/events/writing).
    - Good graphics.
    - Good gameplay.

    This game has 2 of those 3 points...

    Good graphics - 1.0
    Story - 0.5 .- It's not the most original but it's not bad, a mother/sister son/brother plot is always welcome, but I hope they add something more solid in the future.
    Gameplay - 0.5 - is RPGM so if you cry about the sandboxes I don't know what the hell you're doing here, however, the game is side-scroller, so maybe it helps prevent it from being SO repetitive, although not being able to move with the mouse It's not exactly comfortable at times.

    For now there is no content worth the effort but perhaps in the future, recommended for those who do not get anxious about sandboxes.
