The story of "Snow-Swept Quest" follows Saya, a young yuki-onna who embarks on various missions as an adventurer, facing challenges and growing in strength and confidence. While the narrative is linear and somewhat typical for an h-rpg, it offers seven different endings based on player choices, providing an engaging and endearing experience. The game balances lighthearted storytelling with moments of tension, enhanced by a pleasant soundtrack, making it a relaxing yet entertaining journey.
- “One of those is the protagonist of our story, Saya, a young yuki-onna or snow woman, a race which appears human but are all women, with white hair, purple eyes, and control over ice, found only in the eastern continent, where our protagonist Saya lived peacefully until a fateful day.”
- “It shows us the story of the protagonist Saya, a young and shy girl at the beginning, but with the passing of time she gets more powerful and confident as she collects money to buy her return ticket and leaves to one of the endings, or even in certain endings, staying in the city of Minaheim, finding love or something more.”
- “The story is mostly linear, with seven different endings to unlock depending on the choices you make.”
- “And while the story is hardly original or surprising, it’s endearing and engaging enough to keep you onboard.”
- “The waitress, brothel, and investigation missions serve less to give you more gameplay options and are just there to get lewd CGs and game overs.”
