The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.

“Didn't like it at all. If you really want to play it, do it after LISA the painful, I guess. As you'll be a bit more engaged and interested in the character and her past. It's a 3/10”

“short yume nikki-styled game with a sad backstory that can be interesting to explore, but ultimately just falls flat in its execution if you like the LISA franchise tho, sure go for it. i like that franchise and i liked this game”
