DEVIL'S LIMINAL

this is a fantastic game with a slowly unveiling, multi-layered storyline, hard choices, and even harder consequences. the characters are fun and tragic, with nuanced relationships both with the protagonist and each other. i found myself growing very attached to them, eager to see what they would do next. along with them, the story is also steeped in symbolism, making for really fun theorizing along the way. whenever all the pieces came together, i had to slap my hand on my mouth and walk around a little. every weird or mysterious thing starting making perfect sense in the most depressing ways possible, and i loved it!!! the way that body horror is described through writing is so disgusting (in a good way of course ^v^) totally raw, visceral, nauseating... even without the visuals, i could feel my insides turning. huge props!! plus, gorgeous art and banging soundtrack. together, they create such an unnerving (or sometimes chill too lol) atmosphere that perfectly accompanies story beats. i'm really hoping we get to see more work from these creators. this kind of project with an obviously huge amount of love poured into it is exactly what i want to see in games!! <3

Hoo boy. This game is a heavy one. You'll be hit by the oppressive environment of the desert, of a nursing home, of poverty, and of institutional violence. But sometimes you don't want to be happy - sometimes you want to be seen, and want to hurt in ways that mean something. The writing and art is excellent, and I want good things to happen to these characters. Give it a try and see the special sauce this game has.

This game made me physically ill, and I mean that in the best way possible, but still let it be a warning. As far as psychological horrors go, this might be the most disturbing, most interesting, most terrifyingly "real", and yet somehow, the most hopeful game i've played. If I had to compare to something, I would liken this to Scarlet Hollow in the way that it toys with your head, and respects player choice. While nowhere near as comprehensive as SH, it caused me a similar, if more intense, reaction. To any SH fans out there, I would reccomend playing this game. They are different and similar in all the best ways. To the devs, this is an incredible work of art and emotion, and I dearly hope it reaches more people. If I had the brain power and motivation, I would be writing essays about this, and I hope that at some point, someone will. Oh also peak yuri.

Really effective slow burn horror game. And when I say slow burn I don't mean nothing happens, a lot happens over a long time. I was truly shocked at how long the game was, but it never outstayed it welcome and I might try to play again and see another ending. If you like horror, yuri, or especially both this is a game for you.

I have played a couple of hours so far of Devil's Liminal and its world sucked me in straight away; the haunting soundtrack feels like some of the greatest cuts from Silent Hill 3, the art is moody and textured and beautiful. While I initially balked at the stripped down, third-person past tense style used in the narrative, I think it does a great job of keeping distance between us and our protagonist and creates a lot of interesting ambiguity that I can't wait to explore.<br> I think the level of choice and potential replayability for this title is incredible. I can't wait to compare notes with my friend who is playing the other route right now. Also, I love the cat!

good game
