Es como si Digital Circus y Doki Doki hubieran tenido un hijo en una fiesta de TikTok hasta el tope de drogas alucinógenas. Es una experiencia experimental y muy entretenida. Tómate bastante en serio la advertencia para epilépticos del principio, porque de verdad todo el juego es bastante psicodélico. La música acompaña muy bien. El gameplay es, en su mayoría, puros puzzles, más uno que otro combate contra enemigos. Los puzzles no son complicados, aunque algunos sí requerirán que te endereces y prestes atención. Mi única queja es sobre la optimización. Es un juego que no debería pedir tantos recursos y, aun así, en la parte final me fue trabadísimo. Es algo que deberían mejorar para los próximos capítulos si piensan que sean igual o más intensos que este. Pero, fuera de eso, todo el mundo, los personajes y la historia tienen un potencial enorme. Si esto hubiera salido mucho antes (2017-2019), estoy seguro de que hubiera explotado, por lo menos en los fandoms en los que estaba en ese entonces. En fin, 8/10. Estoy emocionado por ver qué traerán los próximos capítulos y estoy dispuesto a pagar por cada uno de ellos, siempre que estén traducidos.
