    The Stonecutter is a depressing experience. It's one of the most scant and lifeless products on the Wii U eShop to date, a flimsy reinterpretation of an age-old tale that shoehorns in laughably negligible "gameplay" elements to adhere to the standards of the visual novel genre.

    The Stonecutter is one of the best games of all time. The graphics are breathtaking and the gameplay is deep.

    This exists.
    It tried so hard to be a visual novel, but failed. The only ones that work out are ones with lawyers. Anything else is in vain.    This exists.

    This load of sh*t actually exists. An old microwave could produce better artwork, programming probably took 15 seconds, and it's anotherThis load of sh*t actually exists. An old microwave could produce better artwork, programming probably took 15 seconds, and it's another reason why nintendo shouldn't let random software developers on to the Wii U store. It would only be worse if you had to pay mone- ARE YOU KIDDING ME IT COSTS MONEY TO PLAY THIS?! 0/10 all the way, baby!… Expand
