Breathtaking. If you have an hour of time on your hands- alone or with friends- I encourage you to turn off the lights and drop into the world that this first chapter sets out for you. If you do, you'll certainly meet somebody very, very special. (You might fall in love!) (Is that a good thing...?)
This is a fantasy story about two people getting bound up in magic, miracles, and each other, each eager to defy fate for their own reasons when given the opportunity. I hope you'll follow them to the end.
It sports boldly-colored art with expressive character portraits, a well-composed OST that runs the gamut from eerie and morose to campy and extravagant, and most importantly: a masterstroke of a narrative by GGDG, whose deft hand for character writing burns brighter and brighter as the story blazes on. Maybe you'll even find yourself rooting for someone willing to destroy and remake the world! (... Is that a good thing?!)
I haven't stopped thinking about either of this VN's leads since I first sat down to play it in December, and I don't think that'll have changed at all a year from now. I guarantee the sex clown will get stuck in your brain and not pay rent. (A good thing, for sure.)
I especially think you should give this a try if you like:
- the Tales Of series
- older Final Fantasy games (VI & VIII & X especially)
- any novel by Ursula K. LeGuin
- Heaven Will Be Mine
