Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“I really wanted to like this but $25 is far too much for 1.5hr, at $15 or below i might recommend it but still this is a very shallow game. 1 environment, no interaction, no updates to content despite being in early access for a year+…”
“A "VR light novel" sounds like it would be really immersive but this game just doesn't deliver. First of all this a VR game, so I don't understand why interactions and movement are so awkward and limited, actually there is no interactions…”
