It's an alright adventure game that starts out well, but it ends so abruptly that I wonder if the budget just ran out on an overly-ambitious project. I got the golden ending, but I actually thought the messier endings were better, a bit more interesting and character driven. As it is, the golden ending turns the story into a simple parable, and it ultimately lacks any identity beyond the message it wants to impart.

A disppointment. I liked the art style.
