It’s a nice-looking game on the surface, but unfortunately, it feels extremely unpolished, even borderline unplayable at times.

Visually, it does look a bit dated. Still, you can tell the developer tried to make the most of the limited resources. There are a few genuinely beautiful moments scattered throughout, which I appreciated.

The story, however, didn’t grab me at all. I found myself clicking through the dialogue pretty quickly just to keep things moving.

The biggest reason I can't recommend this game is because some of the mechanics are just plain annoying.

The map? Almost useless, lacking detail, features, and basic usability.
Orientation can be tough, especially in darker areas where visibility is poor.

Loading times when entering or exiting buildings are much longer than expected.

The menus are clunky and the controls feel awkward, which definitely tested my patience.

That said, the soundtrack is a definite highlight. It’s calming and suits the overall atmosphere well.

One thing that really bugged me: for a game about backpacking and exploration, you’re not allowed to backtrack. If you try to return down a trail or take a different turn on a road you've already traveled, the game just stops you and says something like "that's against the rules"... Really? That completely kills the sense of freedom the game is trying to offer.
