Knife Sisters

While playing this game, some weird dog came out of nowhere, hit me with a stick, said "NO HORNY!!! BONK!!", and mysteriously vanished But seriously... well-written game with queer characters and ritualistic BDSM. Wow. I'm seriously glad I own this and can play it whenever I want

The storyline wasn't too appealing. I finished the game but really pushed to finish it to the ends. None of the characters really varied in personality by too much.

spoiler free as always (ignore hours, i have been mainly playing a copy i got free from the itch bundle, bought it here to support and to leave this review because i want more folks to play this!) ---------- first playthrough: the more domme route I loved this... it is so rare to get genuine queer, non-binary and trans representation, so ofc I immediately loved how incredibly queer this game is. it's even more rare to get genuine BDSM representation, so I was stoked when I stumbled across this among the itch queer bundle I got recently. So, something I've been thinking about a lot lately is the dynamic between character and player agency, and how so often there is too much focus on player agency, making a lot of relationships in games feel strange or out-of-place, and at worst plain bad, like: "do A, B, C, D & then you acquire this person" kinda bad. So, I truly appreciate when game devs try to find ways to balance out these issues in relationship game-ifying. So in this VN, You play as a non-binary person named Leo. The way they've done dialogue choices, you are usually offered 1-3 choices- however, you don't have to pick a choice! if you click away instead, the dialogue choic…

Knife Sisters was a fantastic journey, though it somehow managed to fry my brain after playing 3 hours straight. This game intimately understands how to portray trans and non-binary people in a fairly ideal setting. Pushing all the dark themes and trauma aside for a moment: This game imagines a world that has mostly moved beyond modern quibbles about gender presentation. Otherwise, the game has had me questioning and doubting myself. Half remembering details, feeling deep confliction, truly not knowing how deep I've swim until it's too late. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ all the good stuff I had up for... Reasons. I both envy and pity Leo. And I love every second of it. Knife Sisters 2 when? Please? I will beg...

Short, but wonderfully repeatable, Knife Sisters is easily one of my top 10 games for enjoyment and engagement!

Interesting game. I enjoed artstyle and sidestories.
