I finally finished this game! There's still 2 (I assume bad) endings I need to get, but aside from that, it's basically finished! Anyway....
I'm going to say overall, even when I first played it, there was a lot of unexpected things about this game. Like some of the more intense plots that Seth's route introduced took me by surprise (a pleasant surprise). Rico's route I think I had the most fun on and enjoyed the most (it's hands down my favorite), because especially since things were kept vague on his route, it made the mystery more interesting of Neim's pun curse despite being the least involved with it. But the stage play was the best scene! I loved it. The reveals on Matt's route was totally unexpected. I also loved the cameos from The Clock Chronicle.
Overall, this was a ride. Like a wild ride. I came in expecting a ridiculous mystery and a ton of puns (which we got!), and left with a lot of.... well I didn't expect that haha, intensity. Sometimes it was disappointing when Neim's pun spewing died down in later parts of the game, yet at the same time, it made her spewing them randomly all of a sudden that much more hilarious. Honestly, this is the kind of game that I like--it doesn't hold back on being fully creative, and I like how everyone's routes were completely different from each other.
Also, characters. I loved all the characters, they were unique and lovable in their own way, and Lynnette is freakin' best girl I am excited for her story to be added in the next version of the game!
And last but not least, I LOVED THE TRIVIA BOOK! The extra info, early designs, and bonus sketches were a pleasure to the eyes, and I also liked how you had all the CGs in there to gaze upon. Excellent work! I loved this game, it really lifted my spirits, made me laugh, kept me intrigued, and sometimes had me on the edge of my seat!
Sorry this review is sort of a mess, but yeah, I loved it and I hope to see more visual novels from you in the future! Your mind is really amazing! You know how to take your audience by surprise, and in a good way!
