Knell of St. Godhrkar

I dont usually give a thumb down for a game esp the free one. I feel bad for it because you can see how the dev clearly cared for the game, but there are several reasons why I not to recommend this game despite the beautiful artwork and music. 1. English translation released on batch If this game story isnt about mystery then it's ok. The released of the english translation in batch actually killed the hype for players to stay curious about the story. (iirc, the released gap between first batch and second batch could be around 4-5 months sometimes longer) By the time the english translation completed (although not perfect and required a long time), I have lost interest to continue the story, 2.

Its focus lies almost entirely on storytelling, character development, and the moral consequences of decisions, creating a dense and thoughtful narrative that gradually unfolds through branching paths and intertwined character arcs. The story takes place in a fictional world shaped by political tensions, religious influence, and hidden conspiracies. The narrative begins with a seemingly isolated crime involving the death of a religious figure, but what initially appears to be a simple investigation soon evolves into a far larger mystery. As the story progresses, the player begins to understand that the event is merely the catalyst for a much deeper chain of events affecting numerous individuals across different s…
