    I first purchased this game awhile back because it was on the summer steam sale, and the art looked to my taste and didn't think much of it.

    I started going through it a few days after purchase and when i first opened the title screen, the bgm was very fitting to the subtle animation.

    Moving on, i played for about an hour and was confused with some terminology etc, but after i played past what i consider the beginning of the story, everything really kicked up.

    What started out to be something i thought would have been a sub-par experience turned spectacular. The BGM and the story was very rich and the balance of both complimented each other very nicely. Thank god i had purchased both games at the same time. Best pocket change I've ever spent.

    As i write this review i already have muv-luv, which is rated #1 on the vndb, but i've barely put any hours into it. And until i read that, Fault shall remain as my #1 VN experience.

    Great work!    … Expand

    I'm going to give it a 10. One of the best visual novels I've ever read and I've read quite a few, even several 100h+ ones. I'll talk about critics reviews here.
    *First, it is just a first episode of a long story, but that does not diminish it's worth anyhow. It feels complete in the particular story which this part is dedicated to.
    * Second, the writing and the characters are great. I    I'm going to give it a 10. One of the best visual novels I've ever read and I've read quite a few, even several 100h+ ones. I'll talk about critics reviews here.

    Story: 9.5
    Art: 9
    Music: 8 Play duration: completely depends on how fast the reader is (it took me ~10 hours) I purchased the game after a friend of mine recommended it to me. After the first few minutes i was not able to stop reading it - i was so amazed by the story (fault is very different to other vn's like the etchi stuff).

After completing the first milestone i quickly purchased the second one and over a weekend i finished the two games.
    the only real downside in my opinion is that the release cycle of new episodes take around two years (for such a short playtime its a very long time). but after i have known the nice people from AiD (the core consists of just 3 members!) i was just amazed how just so few people can create such installation (in a positive way).

    I freaking love this game!!!

    fault milestone one is for me the first visual novel without nudity and focuses mostly on the story. I can't understand why ms1 received so bad reviews from official critics - just take a look at the steam reviews: more than 95% are positive according to the steam store page.
    i rate a solid 10/10 for it

    Being only 3 hours in I can already say it's one of the more interesting VNs. Perhaps, if I hadn't started fault:ms1 immediately after finishing eden*, which is in a completely different class of it's own, I might have rated it 9/10

    Mediocre and plain. The game suffers from an improperly allocated development time and resources, leading to a disjointed and uninteresting plot. The story still has a lot of cute and entertaining elements to it, but it is hard to get invested in it. Fault - Milestone One could perhaps have been an engaging experience had considerably more attention been paid to writing quality and pacing;Mediocre and plain.

    Шедевр и никак иначе, 1я часть fault одна из лучших визуальных новелл, что я когда либо проходил, автору самое большое уважение, 2я часть еще лучше.

    Wait to see what future episodes might bring, rather than spending time with the first episode on its own.

    It has an interesting premise, but it’s let down by padded, disjointed plotting and awful character writing.
