왜안해
the GOAT of "being sad" showed this to a dude 5 years ago and it ruined his entire day japan's Key dared to ask brave questions like "what if we condensed all post-soviet melancholy into a little girl robot"
The tears keep coming. This is easily one of my favorites.

Didn't grip me as other visits novels. I hit the skip button. Maybe I will revisit this one later
short story game
the average time it takes to read this VN is 2 hours. there's an extra hour in my playtime because i was crying really ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hard......... YUMEMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
The first and only weakness of the game is its release date. And yes, that's not even a weakness, but the game just works, it makes of simplicity everything you need to enjoy this little gem. It never even try to be particularly complex, it is what it is, a story, told is a simple but indeed effective way. Maybe it's just what we need nowdays, since how everything became so overcomplicated, even in videogames.
気まぐれに購入してずっとやってなかったんですが、早くやればよかったです 音声OFFでやって2時間と少し、音声をちゃんと聞いてやったら3時間くらい?のプレイ時間と思われるのでお手軽にできますし、シナリオも素晴らしいです
I kept putting off reading this, assumed everyone was exaggerating the feels, and didn't really know exactly what to expect other than that. It's a very lovely short story and starts hitting you pretty quick and doesn't really let up save for some very brief funny moments. I really believe it's good to cry sometimes. And if you're in need of a good cry, this can definitely help. There is also another version, since this one isn't available anymore. I do very strongly recommend it.
One of studio Key's earliest works and I highly highly recommend. It is quite a moving tale where despite its simplicity will really pull on the heart strings.
