Waited till this game was out of progress to play it, and after playing it for more than a hour, i had a fun time. I have a lot of issues with the game, like keeping tracks of details is a pain, not knowing what is a small quest and what isn't, lack of hints, and more. I may be dumb or overlooking something so I could've missed a thing or two, but i'm only missing two of those skulls and i'm just scratching my head at what to do since anything I do simply leads to a restart and trying the next best thing.
I liked the writing, although the (avoiding spoilers) main threat has like barely any impact on our mc besides annoying them, I did get hooked in wanting to find out the specifics and what could possibly be the cause of it. It's more so a mystery than actual stakes. I found the art to be cute and charm, especially with Mizuchi's face sprites. Honestly I found it fun, yeah it's got its flaws, but it still has enjoyable parts that kept me playing and smiling at times. Good game, very much worth the wait.
