Belladonna (2015)

Cute game, very short. Don't buy for 7 bucks. 1buck? EZ buy. Enjoyable story. About 90 minutes worth of play. Thoroughly enjoyed though

The aesthetic is my favorite thing about this game which is otherwise very simple and quite okay

A short but intriguing game you can play in one sitting, perfect for Halloween time.

It's ok. Interesting art style. Pretty good voice acting. Only took about 45m to complete. DEFINITELY would not pay $7 for it. Picked it up on sale for under $1. I would have refunded at full price. but not for the sale price. Anything over $2-$3 is too much. Would have been nice if the voice actor had read the journal pages you collect since that is the story itself and they already had a VA on staff. Will mark it recommended ON SALE ONLY.

I cannot express my disappointment thoroughly enough. The ONLY saving grace of this game was the music! I was SO excited by this game because of the art style and the story idea. From the SECOND our protagonist woke up, I was horrified with the voice acting and the dialogue. I cringed every time I had to click on something - just knowing she was about to speak. I believe there was an attempt at "child-like wonder" - what came across was pure idiocy. The pages were frustratingly long and tedious to read. Even as an avid reader, I was overwhelmed with the amount of text yet lack of content within them. I understand there was an attempt to portray a specific time period, and writing style. I also understand that we were supposed to [spoiler] hate the doctor by the end but the Doctor's journal pages did a horrific job of depicting a "mad scientist" and were laughably stereotypical of a "bad spouse". [/spoiler] The "puzzles" were completely lacking in complexity or thought provocation. [spoiler] You end up moving things from one room to another - there was no "solving" of anything. [/spoiler] The most difficult part about them was having to go back to each room you'd already been in, …

I very rarely give poor reviews but the story was very woke, if the storyline had more substance maybe it would have been better. Kind of a retelling of Frankenstein's bride. So it was interesting, just not much to it. The game play was very short, and it was mostly just reading journal entries. Just not much of a game.
