About Nijowari: Where Angels Fall

Nijowari: Where Angels Fall takes place in a not-so-distant dystopian future where the demise of a major international power has made the world tumble, ultimately forcing it to evolve or die.

Experience this broken world through the eyes of William and Adeia, survivor and victim of what is now an unforgiving reality. Will they be able to cast some light on the darkness that surrounds them?


Overview




Nijowari: Where Angels Fall is a rich, kinetic visual novel with two main characters, each one with its own story and its own life.

Follow our heroes' steps in this daring mix of plot-driven and slice-of-life visual novel with heavy character development, an enticing yet dangerous world, and hard-hitting special effects.

William Steele



"I was just an ordinary kid when my world blew up."

William Steele, a young man with a calling and our first main character, discovers that his region is home and that it is worth protecting.

Bent on helping his community, he ends up becoming a "fixer", a counselor, and sometimes a friend, always driven to help people who deserve it.

Adeia Berith



"It's not time to overthink... It's time to enjoy!"

Adeia Berith, our second main character, is a coy, fearful, and innocent newcomer to Nijowari, a strange city with a peculiar society.

Trusting the world she's about to enter is as gentle as her, she's forced to find her way, ultimately discovering a dark reality nobody knew existed.

Along the way, both William and Adeia meet a cast of supporting characters that change their fates, for the better and the worse.

Sadly, Nijowari: Where Angels Fall has less to do with actual angels but is meant rather in a metaphorical sense. Nonetheless, as much as I love those wonderful creatures, I love angel-like characters just as much, so that worked out fine for me. I have to admit that, due to Nijowari: Where Angels Fall’s story having a quite dramatic touch, my heart broke while playing this visual novel, yet that only shows that the narrative is splendid and I found myself getting frustrated with the happenings more than I thought I would while cursing myself for not being able to do anything besides enduring the rather sad moments which occurred more than enough. Nijowari: Where Angels Fall tells two separate stories. In the first one, William Steele is just a young guy when his life made a complete dramatic turn and eventually realizes that his region isn’t only his home but also worth fighting for. In the end, he becomes a so-called “fixer” that helps out other people. The second story, on the other hand, revolves around Adeia Berith who happened to be a newcomer to Nijowari. While she gets introduced to a rather peaceful life in this town at first, she notices very soon that hell awaits her in…

The writing varies from bad to terrible. Some scenes happen too fast to make any realistic sense - for example, the first protagonist going from nobody to figurehead of a resistance movement in a couple of hours. Some other scenes are overly written. For example, the garden scene was boring and 10 times longer than necessary to convey the information / feelings it was supposed to give the player. The setting itself looked promising, but unfortunately, the story doesn't develop it at all, focusing instead on the three bland characters of the second part.

William's substory is bit like a prologue, explaining the [spoiler] Second American Revolution [/spoiler] and how William came to be how he is now. Adeia's story is how she is an advanced android; being able to experience emotions, eat, and learn as her life goes on, but her [spoiler] living situation is hell. [/spoiler] She must adapt to her new life no matter what comes her way. The genius of the plot of William's part is that is can be a plausible event, and how Democracy could fail us. [b]2.[/b] The characters specifically Adeia and William, go through strong character development. William was a rowdy boy but realized that he has to accept the dark realities of life if he needs to survive. Adeia goes through a similar growth however she does have some help from Ga…

I haven't played VN a long time ago, and i have to say that im satisfied so far with this one. To be one of the first games of this company, the quality of the scenarios, the effects, and the storytelling if far from any expectations. My review its only for the first story for now, an a american distopical future where the very great American Republic, once a "defender of the democracy in the world" face a very dark times. EEEEH ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ amazing pls. As far as i can tell its worth the price for sure. If you like VN type of games and want and like to support new and small developers, you know what to do ;))

SLICE OF LIFE IN A NOT DISTANT FUTURE This game is divided in 2 main parts: the first is focused on a retro futuristic historical insight of the events which holds the basis of the place where the second takes part. Highly recomended for those who like historical movies/books, global crisis and rise and fall of the nations. It is not my case, but for those who don't, I don't recomend to skip it, as this part holds the key of some important facts and events related to the second part (yes, it is a complex story, I've read it twice). The second part of the game is the one which I enjoied the most. It is a slice of life set in a not-distant future utopia wich deals with the introduction of light cyberpunk stuff. It goes deep inside into the human (and not human) mind: the thoughts and feelings described are the closest you can get to be another person, and I think it is the strongest point of the game. Don't expect a calmed easy slice of life; this one goes beyond with the feelings and with some things that are not what they seem... The soundtrack is high quality and the art is way beyond of what you can expect from an indie game. Lots of different places, environments and chara…

I really got sucked into this one, more so the second story with Adeia and Gaiane. Their story was a lot longer than William's introduction, which was very political but entertaining. Adeia's was much more heart wrenching, as it dealt with abuse (mostly verbal), so it's kind of a hard read if you're already sensitive to that. There were some good moments too, and me and my gf had fun playing around w/ theories that later proved to be true. I mostly liked Adeia's story most because of the setting. You get robots, body modification (cat girls), self-driving cars, robot cashiers...the works. It's a great VN for sci-fi lovers! On top of that, the music and art were very good! I really appreciate that there's an in-game music player! Was happy to learn I could play Seeds of Chaos on repeat. Also that ending -- really leaves you wanting for more. There's a plot point mentioned near the very end that had me hoping they'd use it, but alas. Hopefully means a sequel? Cause I'd love a happy ending.
