### 5/5 — Unexpected

*2026-03-11, version 1.5*

Now days I find it hard to find good games that aren’t riddled with ads or trying to get you to purchase more things, but this game not only didn’t ask for any money but was an exciting story! I’m not sure it felt like my choices always mattered but it still was a great journey. Would recommended to anyone who likes choose your own adventure stories!

### 5/5 — Great Game

### 5/5 — I love it!!

*2025-07-22, version 1.5*

This game is amazing! The story,the music, the vibe ,all of it is so vivid. It feels like I am the one of them.
Although my English is not that good, i can still feel the nervous and anxious of Sasha and Calab.
Please make more games as good as this!!

### 5/5 — Would recommend

*2024-11-21, version 1.5*

A very enjoyable and suspense-filled game. I only wish I had the patience to go back and explore all the options. I feel like I missed some interesting secrets.

### 5/5 — Unique and intriguing

*2024-10-03, version 1.5*

Really enjoyed my time with this very inventive story structure

### 4/5 — Nicht wirklich ein Spiel

*2024-05-30, version 1.5*

Die Zeichnungen und Dialoge ziehen einen immer mehr in die Story aber es ist kein Spiel schade eigentlich weil mit‘nen paar Rätseln wäre es ein richtig gutes Game

### 4/5 — 4 stars

*2024-01-01, version 1.5*

Thought this story was pretty good but lacking in a couple of ways. Writing was good as was narration. Story was somewhat short and, in most situations, your choices have little or no impact on how the story plays out. Also, to find out if changing a choice makes any difference, you have to replay the entire story. There were a couple of times during my first run-through when I missed something or wanted to make sure I was remembering correctly but there no way to back up, even to just the previous scene. Would be great to have more flexibility in story navigation. Liked the artwork and plotline. Story was also on the short side, so would have preferred something a little longer. Looking forward to other offerings by this dev

### 2/5 — Sad

### 5/5 — An lnteresting game!

### 5/5 — Incredible

*2023-01-23, version 1.5*
