### 5/5 — 只有相爱的人才能体会

*2021-04-09*

这个游戏站在恋爱关系中的男性视角，所以我会有很强的代入感。觉得女主就是自己的女朋友，一样的调皮任性古灵精怪。这个游戏也让我意识到了忽略了她的很多面，在一起快五年了，希望今后可以陪她多一点

### 5/5 — 面白かった。

*2021-03-31*

他の人は日本語変と書いてるけど翻訳切り替えるとこはなかったよ。
思ったより、集中できて面白かったです。
ただ、途中からラスティレイクをパクリすぎてた😂
黒の影とか腕とかキューブとかもだし、光が形作るとこはラスティレイクの虫の場面。seasonsの前と今といったりきたりして花を咲かせるとことか😂
まーこちらはドット絵で雰囲気は全然違うけども設定を真似てるって感じ。
脱出系ゲーム作る人にとってもラスティレイクは真似したいゲームなんだろうな？と。
ラスティレイクファンは、「あーこれはあの場面かー」とう別の遊び方もできる😂
