Cons
Con Action sequences are tough and feel out of place
There is a small action sequence in the game that requires good reflexes and can be tough to beat. This feels out of place for a point and click title as the gameplay usually consists of puzzle solving over action elements.
Con Disturbing story
With how cute the game looks, the story is surprisingly dark.
Con Getting the best ending is almost impossible without a guide
Getting the best ending requires a few highly counter-intuitive if not nonsensical actions to be taken.
Con No complete version
The exclusive content based in platform means that there is no single edition that has every available option. The Switch release seems to come closest, but even it is missing some options available in other releases.
