“在这个年代，情怀仿佛成为了贬义词。这款作品饱含着两面性，如果作为视觉小说来看，那么全程默片几乎无字那么便只有V而根本没有N，所以基于VN的一切评判都不适用。如果作为游戏，近乎新手指引一般且单调乏味的寻物未免又太枯燥。不是不懂作者的隐喻和表达意图，只是前作的起点太高，而这部作品有些流俗。投之以木桃，报之以琼瑶，作品本身的出彩程度在于观众自己的心态。建议收KEY入此作并适度降低期待。”

Reviews

“...a small, simple, but incredibly affecting story that showcases the power of the ability to encourage empathy through the most basic expressions of humanity and imagination.”
-Gamespot

“Genuinely funny and heartfelt moments take place throughout, all working seamlessly together to create a commentary on the importance of friendships and the pain inherent in letting go.”
-IGN

“I guess the music's nice-ish, but it sounds kinda ripped off from To the Moon...”
-Developer's Aunt
