This game gave me similar vibes to OMORI. Its message is heavy, hinting about abuse, trauma and depression. What seemed to be an innocent cute kitty, is an eldritch being in disguise, wanting to gain my trust. And even if I stopped trusting it, it controlled me like a puppet. It manipulated me for its own entertainment and it seemed impossible to escape from it. The more I played, the more distressed I got. Although I feel the being is also lonely as the main character, I shouldn't pity it. It will simply be enabled to continue its love bombing and cycle of abuse. And when I got the TRUE ending where I left that entity, I felt very happy for the main character!
While it was not my first time revealing about my personal life on streams, this game opened up some wounds. I am ultimately happy I have played the game and I think it's an excellent game for those who could withstand the resurfacing of their own traumas. It is a masterful piece of art in showing the nature of abusive relationships. It also instils a sense of triumph in overcoming such a relationship in the TRUE ending, which makes it all the more inspiring. This game is DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED if you like psychological horror!
