The good:
This game has a very high quality of technical and art execution, and robust and intuitive UI design. Everything runs smoothly, the art and the animations are always perfect, and the writing linguistically very good.
More suprisingly, it does so flawlessly, even on linux, without being a resource hog.
A couple of things, though, make this game less than the sum of its parts.
The bad:
- it *really* is a VN. There is no agency, the story path is almost entirely linear with no real options to develop characters in different ways
- kink-wise, what I have only been able to discover is limited to vanilla lesbian sex and a bit of straight sex, with *very* light levels of bondage
The ugly:
- the lore and character development are *extremely* verbose, there is pages and pages of text to read through, but I feel that this content is so generic that none of it really make a difference as to how the player relates to the character
- the plot is just your run-of-the-mill fantasy "big evil menace is spawning monsters everywhere while manipulating the nobility to betray the king".... 1995 called: Slayers want their plot back...
