    I applaud Seers Isle for trying to tell a more mature story than most visual novels that settle for romance or sex. It wasn't perfect but it was solid and enjoyable. It certainly makes me take notice of the developer despite a few issues I had.

It wasn't perfect but it was solid and enjoyable. It certainly makes me take notice of the developer despite a few issues I had.

    My main issues with it were that I felt it didn't have a very satisfactory ending and I didn't feel that the choice structure was explained very well. I played through it twice so far and both times I couldn't seem to get it to focus on the characters I was interested in. The endings also left me with more questions than answers, which, while sometimes a good thing , just frustrated me here. The choice structure also was strange. There were four symbols that choices can corespond to but it is never explained what they mean. My last gripe is that you can't skip text to go to the next choice. When doing additional playthroughs I don't need to reread parts that are the same regardless of choices.

    Now with all that being said I still enjoyed the game. The art is gorgeous and very well done. The characters all have a great backstory and while the endings are sub par the journey to it is fleshed out well. There were no option to have multiple save files on the same playthrough but I can respect wanting to make choices matter more. That being said giving the option to manually save whenever without exiting to the main menu would be appreciated.

    I finished the first playthrough in about an hour. The second took less because some text was the same so I read it quicker. The game never crashed on me once and I noticed no spelling errors. I played using version 1.0.1 of the game from Itch.io and used Linux. I paid $12.99 CAD for it and feel that is a good price for it.

    My score: 7/10

    A mature story with good plot and tender moments... with interesting characters and situations... but its too short, and some endings are better than others.
