Personal review

This adventure game that was only released in Japan leaves a pretty decent impression. Its not spectacular or anything but the graphics are fine for the genre and there are some little lip and eye animations of nicely portrayed characters. The typical text verb list was replaced with little icons, which is a nice step in the right direction. Well, however if the story wouldn't be in Japanese, and there is no fan translation (yet). That of course breaks the fun of the game, because it is heavily text-dependant.
