Bride Of Darkness

*** Spoiler-FREE Review **** Bride of Darkness first of all is in Early Access. Chapters 1-3 are out, and supposedly there are at least two more chapters to come. So far it's a pretty short Visual Novel.. I finished it in 5.9 hours. Although that includes also backtracking and trying all choices to see what the ramifications for those choices would be. To my disappointment ,storywise, at this point in time, you may get lucky and get 2-3 additional lines of text that are different. Now is the time to mention that this is supposed to be a choice-driven Visual Novel, with multiple routes. 3 Romance routes, and one friendship route. The romance routes are easy to figure out as you get a picture of the love interest after the response. And it seems to be one of those Otome that is driven by an affection point system. Figuring out which response will put you into whose route is also pretty simple as when you make a response you either get that person's picture popping up on the upper right side of the screen (which means I guess one point of affection added for that love interest,) or you get NO picture meaning it had no bearing on any love interest. Earlier I said this is "SU…

[i]Bride of Darkness[/i] is an otome novel about a young girl who is coming of age and finds out she is to be married in an arranged marriage against her will but the marriage is the least of her problems. Within the main story there are unique underlying stories that give some context and possible hints at things to come. I have to say I am impressed with the writing, in some parts I enjoyed the depth and thoughtfulness. Good writing is not always a given in a visual novel but appreciated when it is there and very noticeable when it is absent. The game is in early access and so far with three chapters. Your choices, for the most part, do not (yet) seem to impact the direction of the game until you get to chapter 3. The game cuts off at a point where it seems your choices will start to finally play more of a role in the game’s direction but we’ll have to see how it goes when the next chapter is released.

So I am happy to see this feature in this game. * Easy to read text with fast/slow scrolling being adjustable. * Bright, colourfu…

[/list] Keep in mind this game is currently in Early Access… For now, 3 chapters have been released, and the 4th one is said to be published around February-March! [h1]Listen carefully, wandering mind… Stories are not just that, sometimes hidden truths can lie within the adventures described in books. Nothing is ever simple. So try to discern whose hidden truths you are learning about…[/h1] https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3118627395 In a world in which women still have to debut into society when adulthood is reached, the MC is going to celebrate her birthday, throwing a house ball with some society elites, invited by her parents. She had been kept away inside the manor since her childhood (having minimal contact and mostly with women), experiencing a lonely feeling that resurfaced once the person who she considered her first friend disappeared from her life. The time they'd shared…

I played all four chapters on Vance's route. I like Vance but Cole and Daniel are also good otome heroes. The heroine is smart and kind. She's cute - this game reminds me of Scherezade game with the mini games and archeology adventures but a visual novel otome mystery. Definitely play that game if you like this one as we ait for it to be finished. The main girl looks cute in blue and black but I think blue suits her more. Anyway, it's a good mystery with little mini stories and well developed characters and almost perfect anime art. The villains are good looking and they have good banter with the heroine and are well fleshed out as well as all the side characters and the heroine is even well-fleshed out. I like the art style and the music. I'm glad it's translated to English although it can become difficult to understand - I like that kind of game it reminds me of old RPG maker games with interesting translations. Please go ahead and finish the game. I am in suspense but since I played it over several days, I live. If I was a beginning younger player, I would be so anxious to see the ending I have to say.

Дай, думаю, почитаю милое отоме на вечерок И понеслось... не оторваться. Теперь возникло навязчивое желание прочесть все остальные проекты Воробушка, пока жду новую главу

I thought this would be a typical VN Otome, but there’s actually a lot of depth and psychological horror elements in the story. The characters are surprisingly well-developed too.
