  • story
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect of the game is described as a mix of randomness and charm, featuring a cute yuri narrative about two girlfriends in an alternate universe, alongside a more intense plot involving explosions and car chases. While some players found the story engaging and visually appealing, others noted a lack of polish and context, particularly if they hadn't played the original game. Overall, the narrative is considered interesting but brief, with no player choices impacting the outcome.

    • “Pretty cute yuri story about two girlfriends in an alternate universe with some magic!”
    • “This is a cute sapphic visual novel with good art and an interesting story when the couple decide to stay at a hot spring resort.”
    • “However, the story felt incredibly random and kind of unpolished.”
    • “But to be fair, I also haven't played the original 'Death Becomes You' game, so I'm most likely losing a lot of context on the story side.”
    • “A heartbreaking story involving explosions and car chases, maybe?”
  • graphics
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game are perceived as inconsistent, with a noticeable disparity between the two character graphics and the overall art style, leading to a sense of incompleteness, particularly highlighted by the absence of a proper sprite for the character Syd.

    • “The game itself feels pretty unfinished, with the two character graphics highly differing in art style from the rest of the game, and the main character not even having an actual sprite.”
    • “The graphics are inconsistent, making it hard to immerse myself in the game world.”
    • “The overall visual presentation lacks polish, which detracts from the gaming experience.”
  • monetization
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization aspect of the game is perceived as unusual, with some users suggesting it resembles a promotional tool for another visual novel rather than a standalone experience. This has led to mixed feelings about its value and purpose.

    • “At the same time, it is very strange... more than anything, it feels like a single OVA episode for a very long anime... or it is just a promotion (advertisement) for some different visual novel?”
  • gameplay
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of this visual/interactive novel is criticized for being minimal, primarily consisting of clicking through poorly written dialogue, leading to questions about its quality and suitability for publication.

    • “As a visual/interactive novel, this doesn't feature any notable gameplay; it's just a lot of clicking through badly written dialogue that would never have been accepted or published in print, which poses the question, 'how did something this badly written end up on Steam?'”
  • grinding
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users find the grinding aspect of visual novels and e-books tedious, likening the experience to a frustratingly slow reading process where each sentence requires a click to advance, detracting from the enjoyment of the narrative.

    • “Visual novels and e-books can be tedious at best. Imagine the best novel you've ever read, whether it's 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy', '2001: A Space Odyssey', or even 'Twilight' (if you have terrible taste in literature). Now, translate that into a format where the words dribble out, and you have to click your mouse every time you want to read the next sentence, instead of just turning the pages.”
    • “The grinding in this game feels endless and repetitive, making it hard to stay engaged. It often feels like I'm just going through the motions without any real sense of progress.”
    • “I find the grinding mechanics to be incredibly frustrating. It feels like a chore rather than an enjoyable part of the game, and it detracts from the overall experience.”
  • humor
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is characterized by its sharp wit and clever observations, as exemplified by a remark about the minimal demand for a book, suggesting a satirical take on its value. Overall, players appreciate the game's ability to deliver humor that is both insightful and amusing.

    • “The funny thing is, if you wanted to print this book, you'd only need to print 3 copies to satisfy the entire world's demand for it.”
  • emotional
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The emotional aspect of the game is characterized by a poignant narrative that intertwines intense action sequences, such as explosions and car chases, with deeper, heart-wrenching themes. Players are likely to experience a rollercoaster of feelings as they navigate through the gripping storyline.

    • “A heartbreaking story that intertwines moments of intense action with deep emotional resonance.”
    • “The game masterfully balances thrilling sequences with poignant character development, leaving a lasting impact.”
    • “Every choice feels weighty, as the narrative pulls you into a world filled with both excitement and profound emotional depth.”
