Deliver Us From Evil (DUFE) - Masquerade

[I] Deliver Us From Evil (DUFE) - Masquerade [/i] is a very short (I totally get all the complaints about its length) but truly exciting Boys' Love visual novel. I'd highly recommend to play the previous parts ("Deliver Us From Evil" and the paid DLC "Cadenza") first. I enjoyed 'Deliver Us From Evil' a lot. It's an otome game but it was mentioned even there that Ace and Kel are friends with benefits. And when female MC got that polygamous ending with them I felt she didn't belong there :D Their relationship seemed perfect without anyone else's interference. So I was excited to learn about this BxB visual novel. Honestly, the whole experience turned out to be slightly underwhelming. For these reasons: --dunno what happened with the sprites, I'm kinda lazy to check if it's the same artist here but Ace made me truly gasp when I first saw him. Here he looks a bit different, his face is chubby, I dunno, the colors feel kinda off. They are still recognizable but they don't look as breathtaking as they were before. Perhaps, it's just personal though. --I've already mentioned the story is short :( Again, never look at my playtime, it'll just take ~an hour to finish it. --No choices. …

The game is really short. You will finish it in one hour. Only one choice to make and only around 20 different pictures mixed together. The producer had no time and only a bit passion. I expected more ... even for the small amount ...

I enjoyed this Novella, and be aware that it is, you have nothing to decide, but I bought it at Halloween and it was a fun short entertainment. The characters are from the game "Deliver Us From Evil", a game were you have choices. It is not expensive, but enjoyable, so I recommend to but that game WITH the DLC too and play that first, to get a background on the two. As the other reviewer said, I recommend to play Ace's route first. It was a bit short, but other than that I was a fun evening I had with this tale. :)

This is best experienced after the first game which is free. The art and music are fantastic, and the writing is fine. My only complaint is the duration - about an hour for me. The characters and world are interesting so I wish there were more.

Great game with lovely art and overall production quality. The animated effects were pretty great, I played both routes and really enjoyed how much depth both Keldran and Ace had. Really wish there was more...

good game
