Funeral of Paradise - BL (Boys Love)

The story is genuinely good and much more thoughtful than I expected. I really enjoyed the characters and the way the game handles its themes of guilt, faith, trauma, control, and selfhood. Michael in particular turned out to be much more complicated than he initially seemed. I liked that the game doesn't simply make him a one-dimensional villain — his feelings for Dojun are clearly genuine, even though the way he expresses them is extremely unhealthy and controlling. The different endings also do a good job of exploring different outcomes of the same relationship rather than simply giving you a straightforward “good/bad” choice. The Funeral of Benedict ending was especially satisfying to me. I liked that Dojun doesn't simply blame Michael for everything or pretend that he was innocent. Instead, he accepts responsibility for his own actions while finally refusing to let Michael define his entire existence. It felt like an actual step toward healing and becoming his own person. One thing I really wish the game had was a genuinely happy ending for Michael and Dojun together. A secret ending called “Funeral of Paradise” would have been perfect: Michael and Dojun finally reali…

The premise of a man who has lost his past, is taken in by someone, and ends up living as an assassin is a fairly familiar cliché. Personally, the work I rate highest in this particular kind of genre is Nitroplus’s *Phantom*, so I have encountered quite a few stories built around similar ideas. That said, what felt relatively fresh to me was the way the protagonist is shaken by encountering an outsider who lives a freer, more ordinary life. Among the works I have played with similar themes, I do not recall seeing this particular kind of dynamic handled in quite the same way. I also appreciated the game’s attempt to maintain a decadent, oppressive atmosphere while exploring questions about human nature and the way people choose to live, rather than simply presenting a straightforward assassin story. The main weakness is the visual consistency and overall level of polish. The production appears to rely heavily on AI-generated assets, and there are noticeable continuity issues from fairly early on. For example, the direction of the priest character’s belt buckle changes depending on his pose. Small inconsistencies like this can be distracting, and a little more careful review could…

Beautifully written BL story. I'm obsessed.

fun, was expecting the game to have achievements

An interesting game where your relationship with the character depends on every action you take. It's short, but it'll take you a while to unlock all the endings. Stunning artwork. I recommend it.

First impression, everything is well structured and designed well. I like the UI a lot. It has great storyline and the characters like Dojun or Michael felt so three-dimensional, which made the story even better. Would definitely recommend and looking forward to finish the whole thing. I'm wishing the next one to be out when I'm done.
