    16 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story, based on the classic tale of Cyrano de Bergerac, is praised for its charming and faithful adaptation, capturing both humorous and emotional moments as players navigate the narrative from a third-person perspective. While the linear storyline is engaging and relatable, some players found the combat mechanics to detract from the experience, limiting their ability to interact with the story fully. Overall, the narrative is well-received, with many expressing a desire to explore the original play after experiencing the game.

    • “I really enjoyed the story from start to finish.”
    • “The story is told from the third person perspective, and you step into the shoes of Cyrano during the 1600s when France and Spain are at war.”
    • “As I followed the story, there are lots of funny, witty moments, but they blend well with the more serious, emotional ones.”
    • “The story itself is linear, so it'll be obvious when it ends, especially if you're familiar with the play.”
    • “Although I haven't had a chance to read the play yet (but I totally will when I get the chance), I did look up info about the play, and the game doesn't diverge from the actual story.”
    • “Day 3 seems tough since we seem to have to heal so much while they do 140 hp if they double hit and healing is still under 40... I recommend for the story but I do hope they rebalance it too.”
