Morningstar: Book of the Fallen

"Morningstar" is technically set in the "Love of Magic" (LoM) universe. I think it is more accurate to say "Morningstar" is an alternate reality of LoM. In LoM Emily is the heir to King Arthur of Camelot. In "Morningstar" she's literally an ANGEL and the other characters are just as different. You play a professional combat sports fighter who finds out his lineage is more than human. Even though LoM is the universe, I enjoyed Droid's other games (Morningstar and Wings of Empire) more. Highly Recommended.

Candy Crush MMA? Really? What a waste.

All in all a great game and certainly one to pick up if you're a fan of the dev and modern age fantasy/mythology mash ups. Not "quite" a follow up to Love of Magic but close enough that you question it at times. I was never able to decide if it being similar to the point of having the same character models was a good thing or not but as a game it's solid. The gem game mechanic is interesting without dragging you in and the story is engaging. The world feels lived in and it's a game worth paying attention to as opposed to "skip conversations till the noods". On the flip side the actual game itself feels.... undercooked. There's mechanics and story points in play that are interesting but don't feel fully committed to. The gem game is fun but lacks the depth that a Huniepop offers. There are upgrades to your character when playing that can help you but it feels like fine margins. Similarily, the story itself seems to stumble over itself at times. It starts with the MC being a MMA fighter but as the celestial story line starts to unfold it feels like it takes a back seat. Both story threads on their own could have been interesting but to have both seems... meh. I appreciate the MC ca…

a great story. i love having the same characters as love of magic, like no matter in what reality she will always be your wife. combat is fun, candy crush this time, though frustrating at times when they get lucky off your move. renders arent the greatest but it being the same as love of magic, if you are ok with that then these ones are a little better. music is a small step up from lom, same songs did get annoying after a while. 7-8/ 10 depending on if you liked lom. i would have liked more skill slots had a bunch of extra level points and no where to spend them.

great stuff

Very good AVN. The visuals are not the best - with characters being reused from LoM. However, everything else more than makes up for it! Really enjoyed it even though I'm not the biggest fan of sandbox AVNs. Even the combat system, which some people aren't too keen on, I preferred over Love of Magics poker combat. The story is excellent and a decent length. I still need to play through other paths. Good value for money.
