The game really grows on you as you progress. I found myself enjoying it more and more, especially during Fritz and Waltz's routes. Those two stood out to me the most. While I feel like the endings could have been a bit stronger, I appreciate that they leaned into a more realistic approach, which honestly works well for the story.
That said, even in my favorite routes, it feels like there's still a lot left to unpack. I would've loved to see more development or aftermath, especially with Fritz and Waltz. Their stories had so much potential for even more emotional depth.
One thing I really appreciated was how the main character was portrayed. Her doubts, her reactions after discovering the truth, and how she took her time to process everything — it all felt very grounded and believable.
I played the routes in the recommended order, and I liked how it felt like putting puzzle pieces together. It helped everything make more sense in the end.
Now, onto Rod and Rumpel's routes... I honestly think those could’ve been better. The age gap between Rumpel and the MC made me super uncomfortable especially since she’s just turning 18. As for Rod, I personally feel like his route would’ve worked better as a familial one. Found family is such a wholesome trope, and it would've felt more natural in this case.
That’s all! Overall, a solid experience with memorable moments and emotional highs.
