While most will likely just play games for the social element or to kill time, there are others who look for something deeper.

I think it’s safe to say that most of us play games to be entertained, but what differs is the way that most of us expect that to happen. I just can’t think of the words to adequately describe my feelings towards this game, and describing my feelings towards games is my fucking job! Even though you obviously won’t see this piece until I complete it, right now I don’t even know how I’m going to. Let that sink in… I wrote a thesis length essay on Euphoria… I was expecting to never find another work of fiction in any genre that blew my mind the same way. Simply put, I have not been this floored by a game since I played Euphoria, and this game may be even better than it. And honestly I have to ask, HOW is something as brilliant as this game not more popular? I get that it has only just now been released in the US, but you’d think that word of mouth would travel beyond language barriers. Despite the fact that my reviews of visual novels tend to gain the most views, I haven’t found myself as familiar with the genre as some other visual novel fans. Prior to last week, I didn’t even know this game existed. Some times, the best things are those you don’t see coming.
