It's short, it's free, it's a Lovecraft-inspired dating sim visual novel.

It is completely linear. There are no real choices until the end. The game either won't let you proceed without following the given instructions, or failing to follow the instructions will give you an immediate ending.

The game has an automatic checkpoint system, which allows you to fairly quickly recover from any Ending choice without having to replay the entire game.

There is one section that appears to be timing based, where failure to complete the task in time results in an immediate "Bad Ending".
