I found this on the visual novel database and I am blessed that I went through with playing this. I was going in for a mystery and came out almost crying at the real truth of the matter. All the characters (without spoiling) really are lonely in some capacity, and while we don't get the full truth of how they got there, it's not necessary to feel that impact. By the end, I came to adore all the characters; even if some choices were bad, the themes carry that they were responsible for those choices. I ran through the entire game in one day and my shock and awe at this piece of work astounds me. Great work from everyone on this team.
Every time I thought I knew what was going on, somebody would say something that would make me rethink it. 'Well, obviously it's-- Yeah, except it can't be because...' Near the end, though, there was only one possible answer. Only one person could have done it, even if I did suspect, until the last, that they'd had someone else's assistance.
Damn, dude, well done. And I went through two endings (I'm pretty sure more were possible, but i don't have a burning completionist urge to be intentionally wrong), because I was sure there was a better one, if I just had that one conversation a little differently.
Writing this after completing the game for myself and I cannot stress enough how much I enjoyed the whole experience 🖤 The art? Incredible. The music? On point. And the story? Well the description says it best: not everything is as it seems. I won't spoil anything for potential players- but I can confidently tell you by the end of the game, you'll be more in touch with all its characters. ~25K emotionally packed, captivating words that not only kept me in suspense, but also took me on a thought provoking journey that I didn't see coming. I was (let's be real- still am lol) a big fan of ILW so it's so cool seeing more projects from the team- yall are some talented storytellers and I thank you so much for continuing to share your work w us 🖤🖤🖤
