Setup: Decided to play the mage's story
Steam Game Time: 42 minutes

First Impressions:
Initially I wasn't too excited about the initial intro from the wizard in the library. And subsequently I wasn't too excited about reading. There was one place before I stopped playing that the wizard put a 3-minute timer wherein the pressure to make decisions within that time had interesting consequences. With that being said, after stopping the game to leave for an event, I was not motivated to continue after returning home.

Demo Rating: 3.2 out of 5

The Steam store page does not have an AI Generated Content Disclosure section! (implying the developer(s) did not USE AI to generate content for the game)

In fact, the demo Steam store page explicitly writes the following:

Every single one of the 300+ illustrations was drawn by [Yoshio Nishimura's] own hand. No generative AI was used at any stage. This game has a soul that can only be found in something truly handmade.
