I'm a huge fan of reality-inspired games. If you want a story told/played in a semi-relaxing way (relaxing visuals, but mystery is there!) then you might appreciate this game.

I recommend on condition that it's not a game really, and you are fully aware of that. It's an interactive visual novel. Visually it's excellent. Characters and emotions are very realistic, feels a lot like a personal story, something that really happened to someone and then was made into this experience. I was little bit disappointed though because I hoped for more game. You know, actually making choices and doing things besides remembering the past. They do say it's a visual novel, so that mistake is on me. They also have choices matter tag, and that one is on them because there's only one choice that actually matters in this game. Not enough to send it into no recommend zone, but had to mention.

Nice mature story, gameplay integration is a bit weak though

I liked it. The story was good and the character's were complex and well-developed. It explores themes of trauma and grief in a meaningful way. Integrating its mechanics in a way that informs its storytelling.

A mature story about loss, forgiveness—or the lack thereof—embellished with strong art direction and well-written dialogue. Unfortunately, the frequent backtracking, likely due to limited resources, makes it difficult to praise the gameplay

How could I put this feeling into words ,I can't . I was SHOCKED. The way this game telling a story about the a woman and her daughter ,her sister and her mother,is just so unique and soul-touching.Dare I say ,this is the reason that game is the ninth art .I can't express how much I appreciate Dev created such a beautiful game. The relationship between MC Junon and her mother Marie is kind twisted and unhealthy,but no one can deny there are love filled with this relationship.As an Asian people who also have complicated relationship with parents ,it's so easy to feel the same way as Junon.Junon loves Marie for her wisdom and hate her for her coldness.But when Marie' s story was started to tell ,I can't help but also sympathized with her .This is the way Marie to show her love ,to protect her own kids from being tortured by the curse of fate ,which she is believed.
10/10,maybe this is not a fun game ,but it‘s too special and precious.

Very touching visual novel, exploring trauma, parenthood, loss, love, and the complexity of life.
Give it 4-5 h, you will not be disappointed.
