Does not work properly on SteamDeck, FPS drops to unplayable levels even in the lowest settings. I guess its good if you're using a Proper PC to play it.

Recommend purely because of just how over the top this thing is. Not purposefully so (at least I don't think?) but it hits the "just bad enough" spot. It's actually hilarious. Also manwitch is now a meme in my friend group.

I'm enjoying the game. The story can be a bit slow at times but it picks up even though it doesn't adequately develop important plot points. I had some screen resolution problems with the port. I used both my native screen windowed or connected to a TV. It works like a charm on the TV with full screen but on my laptop the available options are only windowed or borderless and can't select full screen. It doesn't bother me that much now. Soundtrack and art are great. I'd like to have had a different tab for healing skills since there's a limit to the magic skills we can equip. I enjoyed the mix of dungeon crawling and VN; it works well!

Overall I would highly recommend this game, it's very fun and has unique characters. If you like lovable anime girls this game is for you. I'd say on steam if I could give it stars I would give it 4/5 only because the port is known throughout the internet to be rough, Fps problems for days. Other than that the game itself is great.

A journey of selflessness Amazing and emotional story! Some of the twists were very unexpected and exciting! A journey that starts with mistrust and disdain between a former knight of requiem and the cursed witches eventually becomes a memorable journey where they overcome their differences as they start to unravel the truth of the world that was hidden for so long. A journey that starts with the selfish desire to rid themselves from the curse of the witches, and then, as they unveil the truth of the world by exploring the star temples, the journey becomes one of selflessness, each and every one of them willing to sacrifice themselves for each other and even the world itself. After much doubt and hesitation, the characters start to accept the role that the world has given them, doing all of this even after the world has shunned and discriminated them. It is truly one of the best stories in video games that I've had the pleasure of reading. GAMEPLAY The combat is the typical turn based that most people are accustomed to. Not much is noteworthy except the fact that it is layered in 3 heights: low, mid and top. Attacks and spells have different Area of Effect (AoE) so your character's positioning is important, as well as having a wide variety of spells that match the situation. Some low rank spells and attacks might seem useless but one important factor to take into account is the Wait Time for each action. Some useful spells like traps and status change have low wait time and sometimes allow you to act twice or more before your opponent's turn comes, and I suppose this is where the "Strategy" aspect of the 3 tiered battles come into play. It can be pretty fun once you get used to it. Time Limit I saw one or two reviews here in steam about people crying because of the "annoying" time limit mechanic this game has but it definitely isn't anything to be very alarmed about, they are just exaggerating I assure you. All of the witches in this game, including the main character, will succumb to madness if they go too long without eating dragon meat, but If they eat too much then the dragon they harbor within themselves eats through them and is born unto the world. This is the witches curse. Now here's what everyone's crying about. At the den (your base of operations essentially) you live alongside 3 cute little witches that are your little sisters, and after a certain chapter you need to periodically feed them dragon meat so that they do not become crazy, but If you feed them too much then the dragon gauge fills all the way up and they become dragons. You just have to make sure you feed them till they're satisfied and do NOT go overboard. And... well that's basically it, as long as you do NOT blunder their feeding then you should be alright. ALWAYS CHECK IN ON THEM OR THEY COULD GO CRAZY IF UNATTENDED AND NOT FED. I recommend going to check in on them every time you unlock a save point in a dungeon since you can just warp back to said save point at any time. Their hunger increases as you explore and battle so after long sessions it's good to check back on them. But the most important thing is that you don't need to let this scare you from exploring too much, because they are quite generous with the little sisters dragon gauge and will not easily fill all the way to the top. I was even able to explore every dungeon TWICE! and by the time I finished the game their dragon gauge was at about 80% or 85%. Quite close but as I said, I did every dungeon 2 times. There's also a certain gauge at the top right of the menu that indicates how close to madness your controllable characters are, but during my whole play-through It only went up to 60%. Your decisions during the game, using certain dragon attacks and characters fainting in battle apparently affect the gauge, but again, It's nothing to worry too much about since my characters fainted a lot during battles so it probably doesn't matter too much.
