Manna for our Malices

Its a complexe game with a time warp (Rocky Horror Picture Show would be proud) & of course Bill Murray Groundhog Day). It has a few ending but they way to find is long, because you need the right choices at the right time or you stuck in eternity, its a Trial & Error but its good for achievement hunters & people who these repeating storys where you need to find the trick to get out & find the well hidden endings. Maybe this game is made by Aliens (INSIDEr JOKE)

I'm surprised at how much I actually like this so far. It's a visual novel horror version of Groundhog Day. I'm sure I was butchering the names but I really enjoyed following the story up to the point I'm at right now. You basically die at the end of every day and then the next day you try to make choices that will result in you not dying the next day. So, you may have ate lunch in the classroom yesterday. Tomorrow maybe try the library. Yesterday you cleaned up after class. Maybe tomorrow you try leaving instead. I can see how this could possibly branch out into many, many permutations. I'm excited to see where it goes. If you're curious or you just want to see the game in action, feel free to check out my videos. I've only done one so far but there will be a series as soon as I get some more recorded: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_ugVRvbdY4

Recommending, but just barely. Yes, the art is next level of atrocious (especially on Shironeko, holy moly), but it's functional, and let's be honest - we play such games for the story. And the story is the reason why I'm sort of recommending it. It starts out a little slow. The first time loop is just some weird shenanigans to introduce the characters; it works, but don't expect fireworks. But then the plot kicks in. You try new things, you unlock new branching paths, you learn new information, you witness new events. And that part of the game is very engaging. Luckily, it's the part of the game that's the longest! There's quite a bit to discover, and if you've fully explored a certain event branch, the game politely prevents you from entering it again - that way you're always moving forward. And everything stays pretty cool until you reach the final parts of the game. To keep things short: it's possible to lock yourself in a literal loop, and it seems like it's a glitch; although ...

Great occult visual novel based around a continuous time loop. (The button that lets you skip already-seen text is much appreciated.) Well worth a play.

Great time travel themed game where you keep reliving days of the past. Fun and cheap. Art is funky. It's short but it's good for the price.

Top of the review no spoilers take: I really enjoyed playing this game and I agree with other reviewers saying it's generally well written! It's not the most lengthy read, necessarily: took less than 3 hours to 100% but it's also literally less than a dollar so can't complain. If you like weird VNs I think this game will make for a fun evening! More detailed no spoilers take: - The art is just like that yeah. I think it's charming but YMMV! - I was recommended this as a "Parody VN" but it's really not, It's all very classic weird-VN theme in the lore and execution, but it's an enjoyable example of the type! - The main character is by far the most likeable character, which is very unusual for a VN but I'm pleased to see it. She's so funny! - The Comedy Obsessive Lesbian Best Friend who is introduced early on is a pretty common trope in anime-inspired things and doesn't really indicate either way it's actual gay-friendliness but i'm pleased to announce that basically half the cast in t...

Looks like shovelware at first glance, but its (mostly) pretty well written. Now whether the artstyle is genuine incompetence, a stylistic choice or an attempt to use a stylistic choice to mask genuine incompetence I genuinely cannot tell. Bottom line though, its pretty compelling and its dirt cheap, so you might as well

This is a great little game about time looping. There are lots of little clues you pick up going through the loops that all lead into a satisfying conclusion. It's not a hugely complicated game, but there's more than just linearly going through all the choices here. I kind of wish it was longer, but as it is the game is a nice little package that doesn't overstay it's welcome.

(sorry for the mistakes, english is not my first langage). A short visual novel with very good writing and interesting story. The many choices help you to slowly resolve the mystery. Pros: -very good writing - Even if surnatural and occult stories are not my thing usually, I enjoyed the scenario, because it was interesting enough to keep me hooked. - the mystery is revealed little by little through the player's choices - the sound design is well used and build a creepy ambiance -hints of gxg love is always enjoyable ;) Cons: - the sprites are bad, especially the colors. It's not hard to do a better job with the appropriate tools, or even with photos and filters. Personally, I don't care, but I'm sure that lots of people didn't purchase that game because of the poor art, and it's a shame because the game is good and worth a try. - some minor subplots are not solved, especially when it concerns characters' relationships (Aio/Ai? Aio/Mimi? Ai said she was working on it, but we never...

I honestly don't remember much of what happened in this game (I decided to write a review since I noticed that I 100% it), but I guess I enjoyed it? I do remember the artwork not being pleasing to the eye, but I'm gonna guess that the story had something to do with me wanting to finish it. Moral of this review, don't wait years to review a game.
