Her World

This is amazing in pretty much all aspects (story, setting, characters including the protagonist, plot twists, atmosphere,...). I also really liked the bonus minigame (because despite being tricky at times, it was still managable to win without being a pro at that kind of games) and the system of collecting shards in order to unlock additional stories and costumes for the minigame is fun too. I found the protagonist really likable (which I initially didn't expect before playing) and I think that his bonds with characters are mostly very well done (especially Yuri and Woobi). The plot itself and the world-building are quite creative as well. Overall I found this to be a very pleasant experience, even the UI/ layout is very satisfying and I'm literally obsessed with the background CGs (probably some of the prettiest backgrounds I've seen in VNs).

Only bad thing i gotta say for now is the terrible audio balance on default. The background music is turned off by default (why?) All audios are best at 50%, with background music at about 20%. In about 1.6h, i've completed 2 quests and 3 main story parts (chapter 1), which on the top right of the "main story pannel" it said 4/54 (part i was about to do). Which goes to show how long the story is. about 12-20h to complete, as often, later chapters are shorter because of the story having to progress to come to an end. I might update later down the line if there's anything wrong or great about it, but for now i only got default audio balance to complain about edit: First quest at the school "Finding Yuri" doesn't have good placement of flashlights "hints". Uppon collecting the axe, it gives a prompt about a door being unlocked... What it doesn't tell you is that you gotta go back to the start of the level, which seems useless to go at (2 enemies spawning at the top of the screen, like it's trying to keep you away from that direction. But, you gotta go back the way you came from (top right of the map) And it doesn't have any hint leading to that.---------------------------edit …

Her World is an exceptional visual novel that delves into the themes of memory, pain, and the human condition. You play as the protagonist who after a mysterious incident finds himself in a desolate, alternate world. With the help of Hyuna, who is also trapped there, you meet three other isolated individuals: Yuri, a rebellious schoolgirl; Woobi, a profound young girl in a red raincoat; and another intriguing character. Each has their own world and tragic backstory, adding depth to the narrative. The game stands out with its superb storytelling, excellent character development, and full voice acting. and the comedy and serious themes mix is balanced and ease the tension at certain points.

Really Good VN would Highly recommend it to people

It’s not something that sticks to a single genre; I’d put it down as a combination of horror, mystery, romance and drama. It starts off with standard horror fare with the protagonist Sangjoon finding himself in a mysterious deserted hospital filled with shadow monsters. It then rapidly gets less scary as he meets the enigmatic heroine Hyeon-ah who is trapped in the world, shifting to a mix of romance and mystery as learns more about the world and how to help her escape it, eventually evolving into an emotionally affecting story of overcoming trauma.

Honestly, While the way the story is presented is certainly unique compared to most VNs, and in some ways unnecessarily like a mobile game. It's not bad. Rather, my main issue is the fact that the MC is portrayed as a typical "anime protagonist" wimp who freaks out over everything. The fact that some many VN writers make their characters cowards in order to try and make their stories more dramatic or intense is just wrong, laughably so. It doesn't make sense and certainly does not endear the players to the story, characters, or the mood the writer is trying to create.
