The puzzles are interesting, but the story and art are what make it beautiful. The ending is just heartbreaking, but also puts your broken heart back together. The story is very tight — scarcely any information is wasted — and all plot points are filled in. Easily one of my favourite games on mobile and a strong contender for my favourite VN (Z.A.T.O.’s a rather high bar to clear). ### 5/5 — Jaw Dropping Inspirational Work Of Art! *2026-07-29, version 6.39* I played this game a couple years ago but wasn’t one to write reviews. I simply never got around to do it. I recently had the urge to play this game again and let me tell you, this is a wonderful game! I’m a little older now so I understood the hints a litter better and the overall story was something I’ve never seen before. I grew attached to the girl in the painting. I nearly cried at the ending. This game actually was what inspired me to want to draw and paint ironically. The music is great and the gameplay is really smooth as well. I really recommend this game. Show this creator some love for their amazing work! ### 5/5 — beautiful story *2026-07-19, version 6.39* an decently short game of a couple hours, with a well written story and pretty intuitive puzzles (so long as you pay attention to the dialogue). 10/10 ### 5/5 — Best game I played in a while. *2026-07-15, version 6.39* - The story was detailed and interesting..I actually felt so sad at the ending - The puzzles were hard, but not rage-quit level hard, and it also incorporates the story into the puzzles too! - The art was SOOO pretty - No forced ads! - Can do with a little more refining for the text bubbles and death visuals - it’s just so peak guys 🥹 Hhehehdbdbrhejhe I LOVE IT I NEED MORE FEED ME MOTHER ### 5/5 — This game is so good wth- *2026-07-15, version 6.39* Genuinely such a good written ending in my opinion.
