Got bored after 10 minutes. The game throws you into a slow, dull experience with little to keep your attention.

Deluge: Sermon for the Dead, developed by leaves and published by socah, is a narrative-heavy visual novel that places its full weight on atmosphere, character writing, and slow-building psychological tension rather than traditional gameplay systems. It situates players in a quiet, uneasy town where a series of disappearances begins to unravel something far more complex than a simple mystery.

The story unfolds in a deliberately measured way, drawing players into a web of relationships, local politics, and personal struggles before exposing the deeper, more unsettling forces at work. What initially appears to be a grounded investigation evolves into something more ambiguous and disquieting, blending elements of conspiracy, existential dread, and hints of the supernatural.
