Oh I have something new to be excited for every Friday now

I honestly understand what you mean. Finding media like this is always so bittersweet to me. I feel so connected to the characters and I can't stop thinking about it day and night. But at the same time, the pain. The pain is real, and the game gets it. It is extremely difficult to exist, for such a wide amount of different reasons, and we're all just doing our best to hold on and be something. I honestly wish you luck with your journey through life and I hope you will find your way into this mess. Nothing is lost, you're here. You got this. Whatever happens, you're here, making your way through things the best you can.

candidate...Okay....

Such delightful news!! I am SO EXCITED from this sneak peek, which is already an important amount of content. I personally hadn't noticed the artstyle change, due to it happening gradually. BUT NOW THAT YOU SAY IT. (ngl I loved the original artstyle, but this is definitely an improvement anyway!) LOVE your character design! Whatever ends up coming out of this remastering project, I WILL be looking forward to each detail. So glad you're taking this much time and effort to create something this impactful. Good luck!

Genzou is legit so cute I LOVE him sm :(

I can't stop my eyes from waterfalling everytime I watch the "Genzou and Orlam" scene. AUGH HEARTWRENCHING.

I feel like it's a coincidence but Orlam's haircut is giving Chuuya from BSD. And he's not beating the allegations with his whatsapp pfp, visible in the side game Our Cinderella, or with the "crazy angles" the camera takes so close to his face at times lmao

This is so incredibly real but like I died in a good way yknow

As a demi person as well, I feel like it's a demi thing to ALWAYS pick Genzou first. Genzou route above all (It's just so HJGHJTDYJHKJHJYGU)
AND REGARDING your opinion on Gidget, I absolutely must agree. I find that transmasc people overfeminizing and oversexualizing themselves for someone they like is a pretty common thing, even and often done subconsciously. It really adds a lot of depth to Gidget's character. Although it is pretty hard to shake off the thing Gidget has done to Iggy. Downright unforgivable. I'm well aware that wonderland twists an individual and pushes their struggles to the extreme but DAMN

The tree was absolutely WILD for what it said. The things it accused Genzou Orlam Gidget and Bucks of were likely not even their fault. What... happened with Genzou was clearly not even his own doing, just his teen hormones kicking in. For Orlam, having this abusive of a father can't be any good. What did she expect, Orlam to just go "Wow, I love it when my dad beats me, I wanna be around him forever!" And Gidget?? They tried packing due to GENDER DYSPHORIA which, again is not their fault, obviously. They did horrendous things to Iggy in Wonderland but no, the problem is that time they were packing. And for Bucks?? The kid she sent to the hospital was probably a hardcore bully.

Hi, as a 19 yo myself, I REALLY have to agree with you omfg. And for some reason, this game made me feel better about growing up. Less scared, in a way?

This game surprised me in  ever manner. I have so much to say, yet I find myself somewhat speechless.

Everything. This game has everything. A unique and pleasant artstyle, extremely well-written (and often more relatable than expected) characters, a nice flowing well-written narration, and not a single scene feels boring. Even throughout the timeloop of the first four arcs, the player is kept awaiting, observing each detail until they notice the changes that will change the character's fates from the previous timelines. The game is quite long, indicative of just how much WORK has been put into it.

I don't remember playing any visual novel before this one, or if so, never this actively. But "Our Wonderland" has made me realize that I actually really love this format.

I absolutely love every aspect of the character writing, as well as the writing of the relationship between them, and what changes over time. I had so much to say, and yet I am so shocked by how good this game is, that I stumble upon my own words.

I truly love the positive LGBT representation in this game, and having a sex-repulsed asexual main character is such a nice change from the scraps of good LGBT representation that mainstream media has used me to.

I was also quite surprised to find that most characters in this game had traits that were relatable to me, or at least hit too close to home. Personalitywise, identitywise, or even regarding a role among a friendgroup and how these things scar an individual. The evolution of the characters based on their personality and backstory is so well-defined and written that I am currently obsessing over this universe. I have binge played OW and its side games recently, and am honestly shocked at how little content I can find about it and the characters. I had to find this game out of boredom, looking around on this website (and made an account just now, because this game ABSOLUTELY does deserve a review). The soundtrack is straight fire and I cannot stop listening to it.
The characters are quite lovable as well, and I always find myself playing the Genzou route first, in OW just like the side games. I can't help but find him the best match for Iggy! He's such a wholesome character as an adult, and I can't help but wonder how he seems to be the only somewhat "sane" character down in wonderland? Although I always find the other routes and endings interesting to explore as well.

The only issue I have is with the character of Gidget. Despite their radical behavior change after their "coming out" scene and their very obvious guilt shown if the Gidget ending is chosen, I just cannot erase what they have done to Iggy from my mind. The finale for arc 4 is by far the most messed up and hard to get over... I would love to guiltlessly appreciate Gidget, especially now that they feel like a whole new character when they're not repressed... But some things are downright unforgettable.
Another point is how as a  French person, I was nicely surprised by the accurate use of french words and expressions (especially by Orlam, he does seem like he enjoys using french a lot). That is NOT something you see a lot in english-speaking media. And believe me when I say it is refreshing to see.

This game did me so much good, and I don't understand how so few people have actually found this gem of a video game. It made me feel seen, I loved the aesthetics and the character design added with the character writing tops it off perfectly.

Congratulations Carrot, you have created one of the best pieces of artwork I have ever interacted with in my life.
