Changeling Tale

Well drawn story with characters you easily fall in love with. The transformations feel very fitting in their progression and similarity to the type of person the women are, which is an especially nice to note. Some of the relationships feel more logical than others, but I enjoyed my time with it regardless! I just wish I could have played as a woman.😔

I love this game. I got it out of curiosity and having not gone through a visual novel in a while, so I wanted to pick one up. I'm so glad I did. Even with 70 hours and every attempt to 100% the game as best I can, I still find myself finding new things. So far, I've gotten every ending available with the current content. Every story is rife with conflict, strife, struggle, and hope. Some of them more painful or bittersweet than others. Even the spicy scenes are filled, for the most part, with an unreasonable amount of emotion to them. No 2 story lines are the same and my only qualm I have with this game so far is that the game still feels, and is according to the official website, unfinished. Almost like there's to be more to come. Please pick the game up and give it a try. If you aren't satisfied with an ending or want to see what happens with different choices, go for another ending... and bring tissues. This game is a rollercoaster.

As someone who supported this game on patreon for a long time before it released, my listed playtime is deceiving. If you're going into this looking for straight up smut, that isn't what you're going to get. There are sexual scenes, and they're very hot, but I found them hot because they were EARNED. If you're going into this expecting to play a blank slate, that's also not what you're getting. You get to choose what the main character does, within reason, but he's his own character, you cannot make him act out of character, just perhaps a bit impulsive or boldly at most. That said, those are reasons I enjoy this game immensely. I didn't expect this to have a story good enough to make me cry, but it did. I cared about relationships of these characters a lot, and every ending made me happy and hopeful for their futures.

The stories in this game are the kind I wish I could have my memory wiped of so that I could experience them all over again, for what wonderful experiences they are. The artwork is gorgeous, as are the writing and music, all working together to make me ever more immersed in the narrative. You can feel the years of love and labour emanating from every facet of this game. Never have I read a transformation-themed story that has given me such a feeling of wholeness: heartwarming, heart-pounding, and heartbreaking, all woven together into this masterpiece of a visual novel. It’s been two years since I played it, and yet the emotions seared into me by all three girls’ storylines have not abated. This game is aimed at a relatively niche audience, and it would benefit from reaching as many people who share these interests as possible. So, to fellow furries and transformation fans who may stumble upon it, I cannot recommend this visual novel enough. I hope you, too, experience the overwhelming love and enjoyment this game has to offer.

Going into it, I expected something a little more flat, dry, lacking depth and finesse. I was happily and pleasantly surprised to find it quite the opposite, even if naturally spicy at times. And in those times, carrying their own weight, leaving an indulgent impression that lasts only as long as the moment allows, and the music for its entirety; a peaceful, simple, and elegant capstone. Going in I expected something shallow, instead merely a gentle reminder that our lives, in however small of ways, are turbulent, ever shifting, full of hurt and worry. But like our demons, rocky moments can be quelled, surmounted, vanquished, conquered. Changed, into something a little more comfortable when we look in the mirror. All and all, it was lovely artwork and I'm excited to explore all the other possible endings. The artists did an amazing job! <3

Game has no sex SFX other than a couple moos and awoos, so I can safely play while using speakers. Though my sister always comments when Hazel is neighing.
