Steven 2/17/2013 5:47:42 AM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 2/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Great Game Pros: Great game. Tough puzzles even on easy. Interesting story line and characters. Also, I like how it compares the answers you give to what others who have played had given. I've honestly had to debate on what choices to make in the dialogue. Cons: None. Other Thoughts: Glad I found out about this game although it was in a Top 10 Weird Games and it most certainly is weird. Did you find this review helpful?

ILoveTsundere 8/16/2011 7:28:34 AM Tech Level: 3/5 Ownership: 3/5	Rating: 5/5Awesome game Pros: Very different from normal games now and I mean in a good way. It's not a FPS nor an RPG. It's a puzzle game with a mature storyline. The story is pretty good too, which was a good bonus when I bought it; I had admittedly bought it for the puzzles at first. Cons: Catherine's voice is meh, but this is obviously just personal preference. Story starts out a bit boring, but eventually gets very interesting. Other Thoughts: The puzzles in this game are HARD. Even on normal I'm having a very difficult time beating it. It's well worth it though, successfully climbing to the top after 20 retries or so is a satisfying feeling. 4 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you?
