    Vengeful Heart is worthy of your time if you are at all interested in visual novels. The overall narrative is gripping, and it’s no overstatement to say that at times, I found the visuals and soundtrack mesmerizing. The early stages undoubtedly contain some uneven writing, but it’s a small issue when contrasted with everything the game gets right. If you can look past this, and the linearity of the narrative, then Vengeful Heart is an absolute gem of a visual novel that I would encourage you to support and try out.

    Vengeful Heart's tale of disobedience in the face of corporate greed is one that's dug deeper than I expected. It's not much of a looker with a pixelated style that just seems too harsh for my eyes. I spent most of my time concentrating on text scrawls that really helped portray a group of friends struggling to topple a juggernaut whilst wrestling with their own ethics. Some aspects feel undercooked but there's an interesting narrative, if you don't mind being a bystander in all of it.

    A little bit of cyborg, a critique of market-determined health insurance, student activism, a big helping of love, a dash of revenge, one doctor, a steam hammer, murder. But if you like synthwave and want a ten hour or so read, go ahead. [Issue#320]
