If seeking a short, warm fuzzy without bad endings, this one is it. The first story by the creator of Cinderella Phenomenon. I mean it when I say short, each storyline is at most an hour and a half long. In this Goldilocks reimagined story, MC stumbles upon a house in the woods inhabited by stuffed toys. Forced to remain, she soon learns of the terrible curse that has befallen this enchanted place.

The stories are sweet, brief but not cheap-feeling, and definitely filled with such cuteness that it’s hard to say anything bad. I mean, compared to Cinderella Phenomenon, which had a lot of depth, this one lacked some, but then again, it was her first game and it was only meant to go so far. I love Koriiko’s art, and her style, and I loved this tiny game for what it was. Charming!
