Summary
Samantha is depressed. She’s been depressed for a long time, almost as long as she can remember, but it’s slowly been getting worse. She thought Lillian was her friend, her best friend. Perhaps she even thought of her as more than that. Why, then, did their relationship have to fall apart? Was it really her fault? She didn’t do anything wrong. At least, she didn’t intend to. Now, three months later, Samantha finally has her chance. Forced together on their geography field trip to the Lake District, will she finally be able to repair her relationship with Lillian – or will it collapse all over again?

Asphyxia serves up a visual novel with a darker tone than was expected. That’s a good thing, as it helps to challenge the growing stigma that the genre is only capable of producing action-packed tales, romantic comedies, or fanservice-focused flights of fancy. Sure, it might not be a perfect experience either, but there’s a lot to the drama which players may find quite relateable.
Surely, this particular writing style can become tedious at times, yet this is one of the best drama-heavy indie visual novels in recent months, pleasantly melancholic, beautiful, and a nice change from all those "Nya! Let me wash your back Senpai"scenes common in the genre.
Gaya penulisan yang ada di dalamnya, meskipun bagus, banyak bertele-tele sehingga kadang terasa membosankan. Tampilan visual yang digunakan juga saya rasa bukan tipikal tampilan yang bisa diterima secara mainstream. Dengan mempertimbangkan hal-hal tersebut, sepertinya game ini memang dibuat dengan target pemain yang cukup spesifik. ...Memang game ini memiliki banyak kekurangan, tapi Asphyxia menyajikan pengalaman yang cukup unik dengan tema cerita yang tergolong langka.
