Schrödinger’s Call is one of those rare visual novels that sticks with you after playing it. I’m in awe of just how profound it can be at times. It’s rare to find a game that can make you smile and shed tears in almost equal measure. I can’t recommend this game enough to anyone who’s a fan of thought-provoking visual novels.
