    With excellent writing, engaging storytelling, interesting characters, perplexing decisions, incredible visual style, and great music, Cinders is everything you could ever want from a visual novel and every fan of the genre should try it.

    A feminist interactive novel that will probably change the way you read the great classics to your children, but nothing that will change the world forever. The real downside is, however, its unbelievably high price (for what it is).

    It was good in the first hour of reading it, but I lost interest from the middle to the end. I was not too fond of most of the characters. The love interests were not that good. The reading got repetitive, and some of your choices were flat. However, I must say there were good things about the game. The art and atmosphere are very well done.

    It's so distracting after a while it's just the developers talking to you, it's not even a story anymore.

    You wouldn't play a game where the main character brags about "Yes, I'm such an awesome/strong/smart white/black/asian man" on and on and on...you'd be bored, a little annoyed and perhaps a bit offended. You wouldn't play a game either where the main character sprouts all day "I'm so good, I'm such an ethical Christian/Muslim/Buddhist" either. Pretty much the same here, it's developers pushing a "holier-than-thou" ideology onto you rather than making a game with a story.    … Full Review »
