Anonymous;Code is an excellent entry in the Science Adventure visual novel series. It has a deep story filled with surprising twists and an intriguing central concept - what if you could "save' and "reload" your life like a video game?
Anonymous; Code presents us with a very interesting adventure in which its cornerstone consists of the player's reading ability. A fairly well narrated and descriptive adventure where they always explain things in great detail, especially how Pollon feels, which will keep you hooked as long as they are fans of this type of adventure. Good drawing, good music, good story, ingredients that are the most important thing in a visual novel, although with the drawback of having little playable space for the player, as it is a fairly scripted adventure that, sadly, only comes in English.
