the art is super freaking pretty !!!!!! im sure the story is good too but i gave up on reading after the first page im ngl #sorry if reading is ur thing then have at it

Quite a well written visual novel.

The Sad Story of Emmeline Burns is a short visual novel that caught me off guard because it looks very simple at first, but there is more feeling behind it than I expected. I play as Toma Andrews, a fourteen year old girl who spends time in a graveyard because she feels more comfortable around the dead than the living. One night she meets a strange girl called Emmeline, who may actually be a ghost, and ends up listening to the story of how Emmeline died back in 1851. The whole thing has a quiet and slightly gothic atmosphere that I think suits the story really well. The writing is easily the strongest part for me. Most of the game is focused on the story, so there is a lot of dialogue and very little getting in the way. I like the way it moves between Toma's modern life and Emmeline's story because it gives me two different perspectives on the same kind of loneliness. The relationship between Emmeline and Cordelia is also where a lot of the emotional weight comes from. It is not a huge romance with loads of complicated drama, but there are some genuinely sweet moments mixed in with the sadness. The artwork is another thing I really liked. The character designs have a soft, almost…

The story is very romantic and sure did make me cry. It is indeed a sad story.

weird yuri involving a bunch of 13 or 14 year olds acting "mature" while also "innocent". any reason why the characters are ALL so young in a lesbian romance? not a single one, no. massive pdf vibes

Easy game to 100%. The story is very romantic and made me cry. However, the only thing you can do in the game is click to go to the next part. There are no choices.
