About Song of Life
This is a short visual novel that was created by only a few people. It's about a guy named Leon. He finds a mysterious amulet that sends him back in time. Now in his hands is his own and the fate of people close to him. The game has a lot of music, various references, and a pinch of romance. All the backgrounds and characters were drawn with love especially for this story. In any case, we will be glad if you like this work.

Unfortunately, I can't recommend [I] Song of Life [/i] because in English it's just unbearably painful to play it. It looks like a poor quality machine translation, I don't want to believe it's the result of a real person's effort. The English text is just literal translation of Russian, so it doesn't only sound weird, sometimes it's just impossible to understand anything as idioms are translated word by word, so their figurative meaning is lost; total mixture of pronouns :(( lots of Russian slang just written with English letters, because I guess Google Translator doesn't know such expressions. Welp, it was a pain. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2842860772 And it actually hurts AGAIN to see a visual novel created by my native devs in such a state, I get it, indie devs may lack necessary funds but in this case just release the game in one language you can afford. Sadly, I was said by some Russian acquaintances they are fine with machine translation as in this case they still may grasp at least the general idea. I'm still astonished, it's not reading, it's deciphering. Quite often to understand the plot I had to retranslate the English sentences back to Rus…14 found this helpful
(Just a heads up: I played this game in Russian... So that I can remember how to read it in the first place. XD... In Russian the game is REALLY understandable, as I read in one of the reviews that English isn't so much...) First of all, the graphics/backgrounds are amazing. They are superbly well drawn and they feel good to look at. Music/references are fine... I actually recognized some too... Now the story... I had an idea where it MIGHT go... And I was somewhat right. It starts off with a character that reminds me of me... Minus the smoking. Then he gets an amulet and... Time travel! Can you change the past? Not all of it... But you CAN make different choices/options to see what happens... Like for me... I got one of the ends I actually liked. I noticed that there are other available CGs that I haven't discovered yet. Those guys in the bar were hilarious though! (The trio). But although I got the ending... I got questions... Also, it feels like it ended abruptly? I am guessing it's open to one's interpretation? Honestly, if this game expanded on some things... I think it would be pretty good. It's not bad like this and I wasn't bored by any means...…4 found this helpful
