I really didn't enjoy this one terribly much. It's OK, but if a VN intends to follow a wholly linear story it should at least keep things moving. This one feels like it simply goes on too many tangents. There's plot action, then a tangent about checkers, or VR, or gardening, or whatever. Quite a while will pass before we return to plot action. For me, it didn't progress quickly enough and I lost interest. I think I got around 4 hours in, partway through Act 3. Wicked somersaults can only carry a VN so far.
