Guardian of the Sacred Seal

Beautiful game but literally incomprehensible in English. I am convinced that it was machine translated through ChatGPT or something similar. Scenes running together that don't make any sense in context to the dialogue, tons of broken sentences filled with grammatical mistakes, and the most egregious being the inconsistency with dialogue references. Within 15 minutes of gameplay, I witnessed the monster at the beginning of the game referenced using 3 different names. The characters would also switch back and forth between calling the protagonist "sir" and "woman." Please hire a translator to fix this English version of the game and I will change my review in the future.

[後半に日本語レビューあり] [h1]A Doll-Man's Suffocating Devotion in an Otherworldly Otome VN[/h1] A girl finds herself drawn into a peculiar everything-shop tucked away in an otherworld bordering the realm of the dead. To make ends meet, she takes a job there, working alongside a doll-crafted young man whose calm exterior hides something far more possessive. What begins as routine, slightly-too-strange errands for the shop's clientele slowly unravels into something darker: the heroine was once offered up as a living vessel for the seal separating this world from the next, and her coworker's fixation on her is tangled up in that forgotten past. The core of the game is straightforward visual novel structure: work through the shop's odd requests, make dialogue choices, and watch the relationship shift accordingly. Missteps at key choice points can end runs abruptly, so a save-often approach is recommended. With 20 branching endings on offer, the game rewards replay far more than a typical single-route otome title, and a second protagonist-design version (face hidden vs. face shown) gives returning players a reason to run through it again from a different angle. Visually, the game leans on JP HQ…
