Rating 6.6/10 - Decent
In terms of presentation, there's no complaints that I can raise. The soundtrack is really strong, the visual style is great and a lot of what's here is very charming.
The story is also strong, as you want to see more from the side characters and it's also pretty clear that the team put a lot of effort on the intro sequence to make sure that it hits the right spot.
The main issues lie in the gameplay. It has a trial and error nature but unfortunately it makes you watch the same cutscene over and over regardless of how many times you decided to finish the small stories and, even that aside, the pace is incredibly slow (for example: every time the characters interact with something a small and unskippable cutscene plays out), something that feels unnecessary in a game that's already meant to be a short experience.
