If you're here after watching the anime, the VN covers more story and allows for alternative endings. Also, try not to mess with time... Tutturu!

I'm barely halfway into this VN but reading this so far is making me have a serious existential crisis as an adult (the previous time was as a teenager)..this vn also makes you think in a way that nothing else ever has, at least for me..like holy shit all this *time* I didn't realize that I had choices in front me that I never took hold of will continue to update, wish me luck 🥲

If you’re feeling depressed or mentally exhausted, this visual novel is perfect for you. It’s a relaxing and beautiful story about a group of young people enjoying themselves under the pretext of scientific experiments, with nothing bad happening to them at all. The characters are very charming, and thankfully, nothing bad happens to them at all. The ending is also excellent (and, nothing bad happens to them at all).
