Was expecting a sort of supernatural mystery affair with puzzles and exploration, but instead I got a load of teenage drama and almost zero actual gameplay beyond some bad minigames.

Mae is possibly the least likable protagonist I've ever seen in a videogame. She's an incompetant, lazy, rude, dumb, self-absorbed college drop-out who comes back to her hometown to live with her parents.
The only character i really liked was Bae because she had half a mind to call Mae out on her ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, though at the end she inexplicably drops that and admits that Mae really is a "good person" Which is a funny thing to say about someone who pressures you into shoplifting and makes you look bad in front of other people.

The game tricks you into believing there will be a cool mystery story set up, but it all builds up to absolutely ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ nothing. When things start getting interesting, the game just hastily drops everything and ends. I felt cheated out of a good story. Not to spoil too much, but the main conflict is literally solved with 'rocks fall, everyone dies' type of lazy writing. There are mentions of some great catastrophe befalling the town, but nothing happens. Mae has a few dream sequences that seem like they're gonna mean something, but they mean nothing.

If i have to say nice things, i'll admit the art is very pretty and i liked some of the humor. but otherwise than that, i don't see anything to recommend in this game.
