❤ Engaging Narrative Choices and Branching Paths

The visual novel format allows players to deeply engage with the story and characters by presenting them with meaningful choices at various points. These dialogue options and decision-making moments significantly impact the narrative, leading to drastically different events, character interactions, and ultimately, one of the game's six unique endings. Reviewers praise this branching structure, as it compels players to make careful choices to unravel the full mysteries and character arcs.

❤ Immersive Delusion Trigger System

A standout gameplay mechanic is the "Delusion Trigger" system, which allows players to trigger positive or negative delusions that alter the protagonist's perception of reality. Positive delusions provide pleasant, dream-like experiences, while negative delusions thrust players into disturbing, psychological horror scenarios. These delusions not only impact the narrative, but also unlock different CG illustrations and story content. Mastering the Delusion Trigger system is essential for fully experiencing the game's complex and multi-layered plot.

❤ Engaging Pacing and Progression

While primarily a visual novel, the game maintains strong pacing and progression throughout. The initial common route effectively introduces the cast and sets the stage for the central mystery, gradually building tension and intrigue as new plot developments and clues are uncovered. The ability to skip previously viewed text also helps facilitate efficient progression through the lengthy runtime, while still preserving a sense of player engagement.

❤ Participatory Investigation and Exploration

Although the game does not feature traditional exploration gameplay, the visual novel format allows players to actively participate in investigative activities. By examining crime scenes, interviewing characters, and piecing together clues, players feel invested in uncovering the truth alongside the protagonist. This sense of investigation and detective work is highlighted as a key draw of the gameplay experience.
