✦ AI summary
Players praise the game's pleasant graphics, atmospheric art style, and story-driven approach that feels gentle and contemplative rather than action-focused. However, common complaints center on frustrating gameplay mechanics including instant-fail stealth sections, inconsistent level design, unskippable dialogue, camera issues, and a short length (around 3 hours) that may not justify the price for some players, though others appreciate it as a solid first effort from a small team.
More Cynthia please! This game will always have a soft spot in my heart as i share a namesake with the main character. I do wish the clothes in the dlcs were more...girly? idk how to describe but none of the outfits fit the sense of the game for me so im sadly skipping them. I would love more outfits and maybe more gameplay if the devs are still updating this game.2 found this helpful
The graphics are nice, but the rest is pretty bland. As a stealth action game, there's just zero tension.1 found this helpful
This is a good first attempt at a game from an amateur or very small team, but I can't recommend it. The art is pleasant, the voice acting and script is amateur (but forgivable), but the gameplay is just annoying. This might have been much better with some more play testing because there's a lot of frustrating elements that should have been ironed out. Unskippable dialog. Camera clipping issues. You can jump, but there are knee-high fences that you can't get over yet there are some environment navigation sections that require you to jump up taller rocks. It's too hand holdy and obtrusive in the introduction and then other sections that would stump you you're on your own. I'm also not a fan of instant fail stealth gameplay and that's all this is.1 found this helpful
Moonlight veils the truth Quiet courage solves old scars Shadows yield at dawn
This was better than i expected. It's very short (3-sh hours), so consider that when you consider the price. The puzzle mechanics are simple, the stealth is fine. For a first game from a very small team, it's pretty cool. Ran fine for me, no hitches or crashes.
this is a short game with nice simple puzzles, it is not really a action game and is linear not open world. I really like the graphics and the protagonist looks great and has multiple outfits to find hidden in the levels. If you want something short and kinda relaxing I recommend!
