    Subdued visuals, a mysterious storyline with strange characters and nearly ten endings make Train of Afterlife a commendable visual novel effort.

    Cons
    -Game runs in Flash Player, so Adobe Flash is required
    -Low FPS is experienced which is odd since the game did not seem like it was demanding, could be due to the Flash Player
    -Cannot skip through scenes like other VNs however when you click on the down arrow key it skips, this is not mentioned anywhere in the game    … Expand

    "Memories are just a part of our earthly bodies - they are meant to be thrown away when you are reborn. We no longer belong to that world, so"Memories are just a part of our earthly bodies - they are meant to be thrown away when you are reborn. We no longer belong to that world, so we must learn to purge our lingering attachment to it."

    If this sentence (a dialogue from the game) intrigues you, you might want to check out Train of Afterlife. This is more of a "visual novel" than a game, although you do have the option of selecting one of thirteen tarot cards (that reveal more of your past) on each of the game's "days." It's quiet and thoughtful, and offers some of the developer's thoughts on life and death, but it can be completed in less than half an hour. That said, Train of Afterlife offers several different endings depending on the choices you make while playing, and collecting all the endings will open up something called "Wing's Path" which lets you effectively complete the game's story. For completists, this will be an attraction, but for casual players, one journey on this train will be enough. Either way, the normal (current) price of $12.99 US is far too much. The visual style, story, and mechanics are minimal at best, but the trip is interesting the first time through (clicking to select destination seats can be tedious over time, but without it, there'd be very little interaction). It's not quite the "horror" filled psychological game it's suggested to be, but it's worth a look for those who enjoy the genre.

    Recommended, but in a bundle or at a cheaper price point.    … Expand
