This game is just utterly amazing! The difference in the story between getting a bad end and a romantic one also made me adore this game even more. And of course, Heimos is very easy to love, it hurt me to be rude to him for bad ends. Overall, I had a lot of fun playing this game and I am so glad I found it. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful game!!!
This is so beautiful that I am sobbing and writing this review. I am so deeply in love with the characters, the world building, the writing and art style - oh my stars I'm melting over and over like fondue. You are truly an artist and if we ever met I would bow. I feel so blessed to have found this - you have no damn idea. Changing my depressed ass life one story at the time. I'd love to find out more about the lore and world and IJADOIJASIA I am crumbling, excuse me while I turn into stardust and achieve higher state of conciousness.
The worldbuilding in this is lovely, and Heimos is an absolute darling. Really tender relationship crafted between the both of them. Loved the time I spent with this game.
Such a beautiful story. I played sacrarium pario first, and I gotta say, the worldbuilding was absolutely *chef's kiss* The dialogue between Heimos and Cassadin was just divine (no pun intended) and the writing flows so easily, making it easy to immerse yourself in the setting. And this is free! Goodness this is one of the best visual novels I've read all year.
I loved this one so much! It's so great to play in the winter haha. I love the worldbuilding, I'm really excited to see more of the world in the other games too (I adored the Sacrarium Pario demo!!), but I also like how the world isn't overly complicated in this story! It's a good mix of easy to understand and interesting :)
(And I love Heimos. His design is soooo cool and he seems nice to sit and chat with haha. The art in general is gorgeous too...)
Wonderful game. The world was wonderful to learn about, and Heimos and Cassadin both worked very well. With the non-ending deciding choices also having impacts, it made for a really good experience. Just all around delightful.
I really enjoyed learning about the world of this game, and I was really impressed with how the narrative shifts depending on the choices you make about Cassadin's personality and attitude! I didn't expect so many callbacks throughout the story to choices I made near the beginning, and it made the story particularly immersive (it also made me replay extra times after I'd seen all the endings, just to hunt for more interesting tidbits).
I especially wanted to share my appreciation of the friendship routes -- I started with the one where
(SPOILERS) Cassadin and Heimos become pen pals, and I found it really sweet. The thought of this scared, sad young man being ostracized by his village, only to decide he wanted that he wanted to live back at his old home and make sure nobody had to suffer like he had... It was really lovely.
Also, Violo's incursion was very exciting. I'm glad I'll get to see more of him and Vivere in Sacrarium Pario! (/SPOILERS)
thank you so much. i loved every second. the story brought me joy, heimos himself is an incredible character that i not just like, but respect. it felt really good & soothing to have two main characters communicate openly. and i find the lore of the world to be interesting, very poetic but also realistic. i honestly like the idea of death&time as a cruel power couple - from the prespective of the player, not the cursed mc. and heimos' friends!! aw! the whole thing is just so. nice. thank you again!!
My most initial thoughts are, "He is beautiful and his banter with the MC is so cute!"
Your writing flows so well from the lore to the MC’s thoughts to Heimos’ personality and passion. The BGM is so calming at times and positively hair-raising the next, perfectly suiting the atmosphere of the entire VN.
The difference in Heimos’ treatment of you when the MC makes the more "disagreeable" choices is so beautifully cold and adds much more depth to his personality, albeit painfully so, coming from a romancer's perspective.
I love that the options the player chooses for the MC’s emotions and motives persist throughout their stay with Heimos and that they're recurring plot points, instead of just being a fleeting feeling or action in one scene, which adds to the authenticity of your characters and the overall immersiveness of your game. I also love that you’ve sprinkled in little bits and pieces of lore throughout all the different routes instead of simply just putting majority of them in the “best” path to take.
///SPOILER START///
Like Heimos' given name not truly being Heimos ?? The presence of and relationships between the other living gods?? wow ily
///SPOILER END///
I love all the variations of the good endings, even the neutral or bad ones. It all makes perfect sense really, and I love this little world you’ve created for Heimos and the people of Frostdine. Can’t wait to explore more of your Sacrarium universe!
Amazing! This was such a good story. I love Heimos' personality. He was so kind and caring but still had an edge to him. The lore and the story were very interesting and never dulled once! I love the ending where you fell in love quickly. That was my favourite! I only wish this VN was longer!
Aaaaa this was so good! Granted I got one ending and that was the one where you fall fast AND HARD. Listen, listen it's a crime that Heimos is such a pretty dude (AND THE DUDE KNOWS HE'S PRETTY--) and his attitude is very entertaining because one moment he feels like a God who has sequestered himself away-- And next moment he's over here encouraging MC to commit arson against their enemies which is, mood.
HOW COULD I NOT FALL FOR HIM? And the fact that common decency is like the way to his Good Route is kinda like, sad? But then again there are legends/stories of "heroes" who do stupid stuff. Not me who upon seeing the "look around" option got my RPG senses tingling and only now I realize, "Yeah, that was a dick move, sorry Heimos".
But not only that, but I'm enamored by the story. The worldbuilding is insane and it is criminal how we couldn't delve further-- But in the same vein I also wanted more time to spend with Heimos so I'll choose pretty man over my thirst of knowledge regarding this new strange world. Wonderful work, I'll try to restrain myself to get the friendship ending or slow romance-- But I find myself literally struggling because HELLO?! HOW CAN I NOT FLIRT WITH HIM???
My obsession with this game is unexplainable, but just know. I've played this game once. and I fell inlove. Imma play it again it love it<333 AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HEIMOOSSS
i love this game with all my heart, literally heimos is the best.. and the first scene where everyone was literally being controlled by that mf priest and seeing how powerless we were made me cry sm, music and everything is so perfect, i battle with depression and this really helped me sm, i played it 3 months ago but i still literally remember everything, the music and all, everything's so pretty, i might draw heimos sometime, he's so lovely literally the kindest, if i could become immortal with him i would, he's so precious and literally deserves everything, thank you sm for making this game, its literally so comforting to me, i hope youre happy and healthy<3
