“One of the best games I've ever played. Watched youtubers play through it once and then proceeded to play through it myself (twice back-to-back) a couple years later, I will never not love this game and its story :3…”
“Absolutely love this game, I've seen the play through over and again and finally got the ability to play for myself. Loved the story, adored the characters and the twist, and vibed to the music the whole way through.”
“Honestly, One of the best games I have ever played. Brings back many memories of when I would come back home from school early to enjoy the game and make all the choices (before the remastered version).”

“I have to say upfront: the remaster probably wasn’t 100% necessary. I played the original back in the day, and I’ve also played the remastered version again now. It’s fine, but it’s not really something special in comparison. Still, I want to leave my full review of the game…”
