A charmingly cute game, if you complete it make sure to play it once more for the actual true end. Don't forget to after to then listen to the gramophone in the extras section and hear the last one to listen to the voicemail.
I have not much to say that others haven't said. But i know one thing to be true. I wish to see Mesmer again in the future in anything else, and i hope that so do you.
Would be a shame for her character to be tucked into the drawer forever.Show moreShow less

NOTE: IF YOU THINK YOU BEAT THE GAME, YOU PROBABLY HAVEN'T.
I really didn't expect this to become one of my favorite games.
Despite being a tester, the narrative left me with stars in my eyes (and a bit of an empty feeling, but like, in a good way). It got under my skin so much more than I ever expected, and despite playing it a month ago, I've been thinking about it daily. I never ever draw fanart anymore, but the first thing I did after finishing was open up Clip Studio and doodle the characters. I wanted to change my pfp to a certain someone who loves plants. Orb is a kick-ass writer who knows how to make you feel the intended emotions. There was never a point where the dialogue felt unnatural or distracting.
The gameplay is a total slam dunk too, the minigame sections were genuinely fun and I find myself replaying them often. Everything is incredibly well designed. Nothing felt awkward or tedious- which is insane to me considering that this is the dev's first big game. It's so tight knit and has a perfect balance between visual novel elements, point and click gameplay, and minigames. There are about a million secrets, and despite playing for nearly fifteen hours, I still haven't seen everything.
The art is SO GOOD. LIKE, SOSOSO GOOD. It's so polished and pleasant to look at. You probably clicked on this game because the style caught your eye. It delivers fully, and the imagery, designs, rooms, etc are incredibly memorable and addicting. Not much else I can say here, because the screenshots sell themselves.
The soundtrack. God. I left the game open at certain points for the purpose of listening to it. It builds so much atmosphere and elevates of the moments where it's used.
If you read this far into the review, PLAY THIS GAME because it's THAT good. And then tell your friends to play it. If this doesn't become the next big thing I'll be deeply annoyed. I genuinely can't think of any negatives. It's so inspiring to my own works and I'm sure many others will feel the same way.Show moreShow less

The demo remains one of My favorite pieces of art, but the full game is a huge letdown. It is missed opportunity after missed opportunity and the whole thing feels rushed and watered down with far too much development time having been allocated to minigames which serve no narrative purpose. The characterization of Mesmer is abruptly changed from the demo and I didn't like the direction the story took. Also, it is displeasingly short (in a "dodge the refund timer" way)Show moreShow less

Minor spoiler warning.
I went in blind expecting nothing and that's kind of what I got out of it, nothing. Mesmer herself was entertaining enough to keep me playing for the entire game but I never really felt like it paid off. The "twist" at the end is not even a twist, more of a drawn out reveal of the obvious.
Also, despite the "leave anytime" mechanic being fun and interesting as a concept, and a lot of work was clearly put into giving you different opportunities to leave at any time even up to the very end... the end result of leaving is mostly the same for every "ending" you get this way and nothing about the situation ever really made me feel like running away made sense (you can actually outright kill Mesmer with no resistance at many points so it's not like you're ever in any actual danger)
I'll list some succinct pros and cons for people who don't want to read:
Pros:
- Mesmer is charming most of the time
- Art style is unique
- QoL when replaying so you don't have to redo tons of dialogue
Cons:
- Mini games are frustrating (technically skippable though)
- Mesmer, despite being charming, is not a particularly complex character
- Story falls very flat (very bad for a visual novel)
- Leave whenever mechanic feels vestigialShow moreShow less

A game that starts with a silly note, but then slowly spirals into bittersweet melancholy. The story is mesmerizing and the music is gratifying, but don't let the cute art style trick you - things can get very, very serious. All of that fits so well into the short playtime.
In conclusion, I'd like to say that Mesmer is a wonderful girl and she deserves a lot of love!!Show moreShow less
