Honestly, I think that game only appeals to people who borderline fetishize Japanese game development and aesthetics, or those who lionize quirkiness simply for the sake of quirkiness.
"This game is so different from everything else out there, who cares if it's actually good or fun!"
I'd be interested to hear from those who think I'm wrong, and hear why they like it for the gameplay, etc.

Those tenth games are often something I never expected to like, and the other 9 are kind of a fringe fascination.
Or look at it this way:
You can go your whole life listening to just Madonna and Nickelback and probably not feel like you're missing out on anything, or you can actively search out artists who are going against the grain and doing their own thing, and maybe it isn't always good or fun, but at least it's not the same thing you've heard a billion times from a billion generic pop songs.
