Twice Reborn: a vampire visual novel

This game feels like it's just Christian propaganda. The only way to get "good" endings is to become a Christian and all the writing around that was very heavy handed. Also the game made all the alternative people "less moral".

It does annoy me that I can't give this game a neutral review, as I think there are good things and bad things in this game, and I feel many of my issues with the game are a matter of opinion, and I don't want them to necessarily drag down this game's value, but ultimately I'm sharing my thoughts and opinions here, knowing that it might or might not be how everyone might feel or want in a game. I have finished several playthroughs, BTW. Pros: - Well written, in that the characters seem fairly well fleshed out and considered (almost to a fault), and the writer had a clear vision in making this game which leads to a coherent story - It's neither too long or too short - The OST is really good!! - The ideas within the story use common tropes in a unique and creative way that I haven't seen before - Diverse set of characters - Almost fully voiced - It includes Christian themes (this is a pro for some and, as I said below, a con for others, including myself) - 2010's nostalgia (in character design, mainly, specifically the twins and Nate being emo, and the design of Dameon & Zhenzhu (which I really liked and reminded me of being a teenager!) Cons - Whilst the choices [i]seem[…

What I liked: -The religious theme. There are not many video games about religion or politics. -The vampire theme. -It's a very unique game since it's about both vampires and religion. What I did not like: -only 12 pages of save slots (6 saves per page) so it's tough to replay for all of the endings.

I received both a copy of the game, as well as financial compensation to cover the game. (I was contracted for 60 minutes, but ended up finishing my play through off stream). This does not however affect my review. You can see my full play through here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYDekt_lk5pAsvbmk2R7ISRuL8qGISEhq (Note that at the time of my posting my review the full play through is not yet up). I loved this visual novel. The story had some areas that were a little slower paced than the rest, and I was able to pick up some spelling mistakes and grammatical errors, but for the most part I found the story compelling, the characters relatable and well written. There was a part in the story that broke me emotionally and I had to actually step away for a while before coming back. The voice acting is amazing. The sound effects and music are great and well placed. I felt like the choices I made mattered and I definitely intend to come back to this and try out different choices to see how things change. 9/10

Twice Reborn: a vampire visual novel delivers an intriguing supernatural experience that combines political intrigue, personal sacrifice, and morally complicated decisions within a world where vampires secretly coexist with humanity. Developed and published by First Step Cinematics, this narrative-focused adventure emphasizes storytelling and player agency rather than traditional combat or exploration. Its central appeal comes from allowing players to shape the destiny of a newly transformed vampire while navigating dangerous relationships, conflicting loyalties, and the constant struggle between maintaining humanity and embracing monstrous instincts. Although its presentation is relatively modest, the ambitious branching narrative provides considerable depth for enthusiasts of interactive fiction. The story revolves around Mark Delaware, an ordinary teaching assistant whose life changes after becoming a vampire. Under the guidance of his mentor, Michelson, Mark is expected to assume the position of Enforcer, an intimidating authority responsible for maintaining order among rival vampire houses. These factions follow an established Code, but their competing interests create an atm…
