Reception
According to Metacritic, PC Master and GameOver.gr favorably reviewed the game.[3][4] PC Master speaks of an "unbelievable, beautiful, emotionally charged adventure" and "an unforgettable, dreamy journey that every adventure-gamer should experience".[3] GameOver.gr notes the slow pacing rhythm of the game, asking the player to immerse themselves in the game to enjoy it and salutes "an excellent narrative, a beautiful art style, and wonderful music that trigger all kinds of memories of dreams we've forgotten or we never knew we had".[5]
