It's not for everyone but I thought it was a great visual novel. If you like this type of game and anime settings, it's great

86% on Metacritic for the Switch version. That's damn solid.

You likely are not the target audience for this game. It's a visual novel.

This game was phenomenal. The characters and vibe and writing were super on point with lots of laughs with the interactions between you and Mizuki and Aiba and lots of suspense with the main plot.

No, I like visual novels. This was one terrible due to the sexual humor. It feels like it's written for horney 13 year old boys. Very cringe writing.

I feel like some of the sexual humor was self-parody given how over the top parts were. I think the game would be better without it, but the plot and atmosphere, to me, are excellent.

This person got whooshed, it was obviously self-parody. There's no fan service at all in the game.

Same writer as Zero Escape series if that matters to anyone. Personally one of my favs, even though on hindsight it reuses some of the writer's previous works plot elements. For those who aren't familar with him, you'll be in for a lot of fun. Things get crazy near the end.

I heard it doesn't perform that well on Switch so I got this on PS4 and its sequel on Steam instead.
