A highly anticipated JRPG for multiple years in the making with lots of love and detail that is visible to see in the experience and joy you would have from playing this game. This is not Undertale with pacifist endings and whatnot but a story of a boy and his friends.

I personally recommend this game.

(PSA: Please finish watching the credits. It's important)
In this game you are playing a troubled teen boy in the Philipines hanging out with his friends and going through the daily flow of life. Through relatable storytelling, colourful mini-games and having a beautiful pixel environment, the game expresses itself uniquely. The music as well shows how much love and effort has been put into creating this.

The game itself plays like a movie and has a slow pace.. But just like the game and in life, to enjoy something truly you really need to give it time to impact you. The reason i am telling you this is because most stories don't paint you a full picture.
Sometimes we are blinded with how we view the world and how we were feeling at that moment to see what is really happening and what is important. I think that's the essence of this game and its theme. Even if you dislike the psychological aspect in these type of games, you would probably still enjoy the story.

I personally recommend this game.
