User Reviews
A detective adventure game set in a world filled with Youkai. It has no dumb jokey puzzles or wackiness added for the sake of wackiness which i despise in adventure games. Instead, the story takes itself seriously while the art is FUCKING ADORABLE - OH MY GOSH LOOK AT THE INUGAMI AND THE SNOW BUNNIES <3 In all honesty, it is nothing really special and there's practically no difficulty but its fine for its price. 10/10 - would ask an inugami if i can pet himb again :3
