Reviews

“SYNESTHESIA was a fantastic experience. Enticing plot, dark themes within its routes, and an endless tragedy… If you enjoy all that plus some fun minigames and a futuristic setting, you should definitely read this.”
Fuwanovel

“SYNESTHESIA offers a compelling story with interesting ideas and well-written characters, and I’d recommend it to fans of science fiction and mystery.”
Nook Gaming

“The story for SYNESTHESIA is something of an oddity, it’s very Steins; Gate, and I loved it. I can safely recommend this to those who love deep stories that make you do a lot of thinking.”
