Reviews

This game is excellent! It is an emotional rollercoaster with a superb soundtrack and some challenging puzzle mechanics which seem simple at first but soon get complex. I thoroughly enjoyed every moment I spent on this game and cannot recommend it highly enough! Well done to everyone involved!
Burgurple, 5 Stars

A real, in-depth look at the troubles that plague long distance relationships and the thought processes we usually run through in a matter of seconds. Here you really slow down and see how certain words/phrases can affect others (especially over text) and the emotional processes people go through when they react. Wonderful style with sweet music and a life lesson to boot. My only wish is that it would never end
