  • story
    54 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “The story beats: everything feels so well-paced and planned out; every bit of dialogue feels on point and good in that moment.”
    • “It's fairly short and has a strictly linear story, but I wouldn't consider those particularly downsides; it tells the story it's trying to tell, and does it with a surprising amount of heart.”
    • “Don't expect any choices going into this game - instead, expect to click through a mid-length story about Dawn as she navigates finding herself in a magical, but still prejudiced world.”
    • “The resolution of the story felt less like it came from the characters' growth and more like it came as a result of circumstance.”
    • “I spotted several typos and some odd grammatical constructs scattered throughout the story (which are more concentrated in the second half, after Dawn becomes a zombie).”

    • “However, it could potentially improve on gameplay variety, graphics, pacing, and sound design.”
    • “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?'”
    • “[h3] Cons: [/h3] [b] Limited gameplay variety[/b] The game's gameplay variety may be lacking for some players.”

    • “The character designs are lovely and feel quite real, not really being themed but rather individualized and reflective of each person’s personality and origin.”
    • “The game is presented in an overall cheery way, while also adding a touch of realism in the character development when it touched on darker themes such as trans and ace acceptance, and not always getting what we want in the way we wanted it.”

  • 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/e-books are tedious at best. Imagine the best novel you ever read, whether it's 'Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy', '2001: A Space Odyssey', or 'Twilight' (if you have terrible taste in literature), but then translate that to 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.”
