OBSCURA

The story may or may not be good, that can be subjective, but having only the LIs (husbandos) have drawings and all the other characters being black silhouettes is the most basic, boring, and lacking in enthusiasm I've ever seen. It's a Ren'py game, so whether it's made by 1, 3, 10, 150 people, are you going to tell me you can't draw 2 or 3 villagers, your 2 or 3 recurring characters, and your romantic interests??? I mean, there are at most 10 sprites, and that's not even mentioning the same backgrounds used over and over again... backgrounds that really have no detail and could easily be AI at this point and then the Ren'py basic (untoched) menu.. Cant talk much about the music rly, it started nice but the loop was too fast so having the same song over and over in loop make me want to scratch my ears out so i decide to mute the sound...i think it needs another warning, for the sound loop after 30 seconds.. Too lazy, close to cashgrab.

The moment Oleander's chapter dropped i bought it, no regrets.

A fantastic game. Characters so good you still love them even when you hate them. Complex love interests. Oleander is my favorite! A MC that holds their own. Well written. Atmospheric music. Creative use of the medium--it can be quite disturbing actually. I highly recommend this. Tons of replay value.

such a cool and interesting game. Keir and Oleander are my favorites and their complex relationship/past intrigues me a lot.

this game.... THIS GAME!!!!!!! IS SO GOOD The art, the ost, the characters (yes, ALL the characters, not just the romantic options), the MC (Vesper my beloved <3), heck the team themselves are great experiencing the development of has been a constant delight and I can't wait to get more of it (Francesco is next!)

I've played Cirrus, Keir, and Francesco's routes so far and I love the different options and endings! Even with just 2 chapters! I'm particularly partial to Cirrus, who is easily one of the scariest motherfuckers I've seen since Griffith Berserk. Cirrus himself is a warning, but you can't help but be drawn in by his otherworldly demeanour. Every single interaction with him set off warning bells, but ones that felt so far away that I, the wool pulled over my eyes and ears, didn't want to think twice about. Oh, but I did. So when I continued leaning into Cirrus, playing his games, I felt genuinely insane. That man has me in a chokehold and his dialogue makes me breathe like it too. SO very excited to see how things continue. Can't say enough good things about the Cirrus route. It's fucking scary hot. If you're a more reasonable person, then there are other routes. ;) One thing that sticks out is that Keir gives me Skyrim Thieves Guild vibes. Like if you were dating a more cynical ver...

I walked into this game not knowing what to expect. I adore VN and I'm always looking for the kind with more mature story and content but sometimes they aren't as advertised. And this one being EA? I was a bit skeptical. Still, I took the leap and bought it. I have to say, I'm glad I did. In two chapters I was already moved to tears on just one route. The story has a unique backdrop and the art is lovely. I can genuinely say I'm looking forward to seeing how this VN evolves and unfolds. The even more wonderful thing is that the VN has built in a SafeSpace for players due to the nature of some of the themes encountered. Such a meaningful inclusion.
