While the art and music are lacking a bit in my opinion, the writing is really well done. It's got a pretty unique story, getting more and more emotive as time passes, and it doesn't really suffer from the clunky or unnecessarily long-winded sentences that visual novels sadly tend to. Despite the mentioned problem with the visuals and soundtrack, and its short length and the absence of voice acting and choices - making it a kinetic novel, but who's counting - Palinurus is a memorable kinetic novel and reading it still more than worthwhile. Good job, Watercress team!
