Silver Blue

[i]Silver Blue[/i] is a boy-love visual novel about Cyan’s journey to find his master Gui and discover his origins upon a mysterious mountain. [h3]The Story[/h3] The story centers around an orphan named Cyan who has no memories of his time before he was taken in by his master Gui, only strange dreams that have haunted him for years. One day Master Gui goes missing and Cyan sets off to find him. Cyan is courteous, thoughtful and has a good judge of character, and he loves cooking and researching herbs. The game offers three romance potentials. Sei, Ethan and Hagan. Sei is a good friend of Master Gui and often visits Gui and Cyan’s home. He is kind yet enjoys teasing Cyan, he is well-traveled and rarely talks about himself. Ethan is a hunter who along with this sister resides in the woods. He is one of the people you come across in your travels following Cyan. Hagan, an old acquaintance of Sei, is impulsive, hot-tempered and flamboyant in his style. This game is not lewd or graphic in any form. There are scenes of kissing in some key art pieces but nothing spicy. This novel falls into the romantic realm more than anything.

Maybe it's because of my age, maybe it's because of the various VNs I've played throughout the years but I just could not enjoy this game. The writing seemed off to me as well as the character sprites; the artwork (for me) was hit or miss but I don't play these games for the art. I couldn't finish a route so this isn't a complete review I guess but I just couldn't focus. The main character, cyan was also quite annoying.

Summary This game is a hidden gem. The world building is amazing. The art is stunning, the music is beautiful. The story is dark, complex and speaks to profound themes of human existence. The emotional intensity in Sei’s route is on the level of Psychedelica games. It’s a BL story where “L” is eternal love that knows no bounds of gender or time. Cyan is one of my favorite MCs. I love, love, LOVE this game. 10/10 Details I looked for a dark game with serious adult themes, like Nightshade and Psychedelica, and I found it. You won’t guess this from the cover, because the art is so colorful and vibrant, but the music theme keys you in. The story is original, with well developed lore, and there is a lot of mystery. You want to play all three routes to get the full picture. Cyan is the best MC I ever played. He is relatable and you get to see him grow up and mature as the game progresses. His Lis have distinct personalities and impact him differently, so the way he turns out in the end is not exactly the same on each route. My only gripe about Lis was that the best looking guys in the game (namely Aster and Gui) were not romanceable. That’s just unfair - can we have them in DLC the…

A beautiful and sad visual novel. I think many people will find a response in the main character, who feels useless and chases after the only person who makes up the whole world for him. Probably, many people have come across this, even if it wasn't about a person, but, say, about some things that made up your entire personality. But in this story, the main character finds himself and finds other things that are dear to him, and that's great. My favorite love line is Sayn/Hagan, but the other pairs were interesting to watch, the Sayn/Sei line especially hurt me, so I also made one mistake, which led to a bad ending, where Sei died. But it wasn't only painful along the way, because the whole story is filled with longing, loss, loneliness, regret, rejection, and resentment. And that's exactly what I mean when I say that I'm willing to suffer as much as I want throughout the story, but give me a good ending. But, of course, my heart will always ache for the story of Gui and Ildra, for the story of Aster and Kaiden, for the story of the people. I hope they will all find happiness someday. Thank you so much for this masterpiece. I'm glad that I met it on my way.

Pretty fun game

Cute story. I like the artwork.
