What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
I first read the webcomic over ten years ago, so I was pleasantly surprised to see a visual novel based off of it getting on Steam and bought a copy as soon as it was released on Steam. I hoped that maybe I could recommend it to friends who've never gotten into the series and interest them into picking up the comics. As much as I wanted to though, I can't really do that in good conscious, so that's why I had to downvote it. Now, it's not to say that there aren't any merits. Mayshing's art and character designs continue to be beautifully done. Any fan of the eDepth Angel comics will be happy to know that everyone's characterizations aren't off in the least. If anything, I thought it was refreshing to be able to spend some time with Lien and Kolei before they became cyborgs since it was only briefly touched upon before. It was also pretty neat to be able to get to know Kolei and Seon along with Lien. For me though, I think there were two main issues about the game. One was how I personally found the mystery solving portion of the game too confusing and the other was how there's too much information that a newcomer wouldn't know but is considered commonplace knowledge for the cast.…11 found this helpful
It could have been interesting, but the evidence section is too much of a pain to use. It's not always responsive to mouse clicks, gets re-sorted for each element you pick, and the description doesn't really help differenciate them when you have to insert your evidences into the timeline. I ended up not bothering at all and got one ending, probably something that was far from the true ending (if there is one) but I won't care. Icing on the cake : the skip function skips even unread text, making another playthrough impossible unless you want to keep reading the same thing over and over.3 found this helpful
