The Fruitless Flower 雾雨中的徒花

good game

It was somethin alright. It was pretty cute, had some side character stories too :) Even had like a whole other story to read with pages and pictures you could find throughout the game. Some bits of the love story I wasn't fully on board with I wasn't really expecting was the literal Nazis either geez lol I didn't cry but was close at a couple bits Do I recommend this game? Yes absolutely, if you're a sucker for yuri ♥♥♥♥ like me. I want more gay fantasy rpg maker stories to exist in this world

A simple yet engaging and emotional yuri treat. A pure love story with a fairy tale touch. The English translation is decent, although not perfect, everything is clear and easy to understand.

The Fruitless Flower 雾雨中的徒花 is a story-driven indie RPG and visual novel hybrid developed and published by 凝冰剑斩. At its heart, the game is less about mechanical complexity and more about emotional resonance. It presents a somber, character-focused narrative set in a fantasy world destabilized by authoritarian rule, using personal relationships and political turmoil as the backbone of its storytelling. Rather than relying on spectacle or combat-heavy systems, it leans into atmosphere, dialogue, and gradual emotional development to leave a lasting impression. The narrative follows two young girls whose peaceful childhood is shattered when an extremist regime rises to power in their homeland. What begins as quiet memories of rural life and small personal discoveries quickly transforms into a story of survival and displacement. The world shifts from gentle landscapes to environments shaped by fear and oppression, and the protagonists are forced to navigate a society that no longer feels safe. This contrast between innocence and harsh reality drives much of the emotional weight, grounding the fantasy elements in themes that feel uncomfortably relevant. While the game includes light RP…

Played this out of curiosity, especially since it was already dirt-cheap and discounted at half price on top of that. Do I recommend this game? Yes, if you are in dire need of filling your yuri tank; No, if you are looking for high quality content and worthwhile story. Story was alright, a bit sad here and there; Acceptable for the genre (and the price) to say the least. Despite its botched translations and missing texts, you can still fill the hole if you pay attention to what's going on in the story. Music was good, the best part of this game, I dare say. The only thing I dislike about this game is that you need to collect its “collectibles” to unlock the endings—especially when some of them are easy to miss. A plus point for me was the artwork, they’re genuinely cute ... and you can really tell the hard work and love put into them.
