User Reviews

Reviewers consistently praise the game’s art, atmosphere, and emotional storytelling, with many noting beautiful visuals, music, and a engaging puzzle-driven mystery that makes players feel connected to the characters. The strongest caveat is the paywall: a Crunchyroll account or subscription is often required, sometimes with reports of login friction or double-charging concerns. A few players find some puzzles or the ending a bit confusing, and several wish for more content or longer playtime. Overall, it’s visually stunning and emotionally resonant, but access barriers hold it back.

Pros

Cons

Paywall/subscription barrier: Crunchyroll login or subscription required to play.
Login/account access friction and occasional double-charging concerns.
Some puzzles or the ending can be confusing or ambiguous.
Short length / not enough content.
Privacy concerns and limited support from Crunchyroll.

I absolutely loved this game especially because I and my partner are artists and I can’t imagine my life without him. He brings so much color into my life. Thank you for making this ! I look forward to more games like this .

Honestly I am pretty good at picking up how a story will end before it really starts, but I was really shocked at how unpredictable the entire story was. Very beautiful, I would play more from this creator.

This game is truly beautiful. Its an interactive story that follows two artists that live across from each other. You get to learn both their stories and what they mean to each other through art but the story is not what I expected. It was sad, but beautiful. I could play a million games similar to this. Ugh I’m so sad it’s over:(
