Jan. 2025
I was really excited to play this vn and it definitely didn't disappoint! There are so many things I love about this game, though because of that I'm even more frustrated by its negative aspects since I keep imagining how epic it would've been without them lol. Overall I'm really impressed by the production, the art is beautiful (though I was kind of hoping for more CG variety) and the soundtrack is insanely good! The game's whole design is just very aesthetically pleasing to me. The plot is interesting and I was highly invested in the story, the whole "selection system" is quite intriguing and I loved whenever there were action moments. I love the fun characters and enjoyed finding out more about them throughout the story, but I often hated what was done to them eventually, like WHY DID HALF OF THE CAST WILLINGLY SACRIFICE THEMSELVES? . I found it weird that some of them had a complete mind-switch within a few weeks, which made the later "rounds" of the selection way less intense than I was hoping for. Otherwise something I perceive to be rather neutral are the pespective changes: on one hand I enjoyed them for the variety and learning more about the cast but on the other hand it felt like the game started doing them too early on, which made some moments less impactful and more predictable. Besides I believe that the perspective changes didn't use their potential, since many valuable and interesting actions that could've been shown just ended up being briefly mentioned (I'm particularly talking about the badass characters who are somehow capable of nearly anything but the game just demonstrates NONE of their abilities, "connections", etc). Now the game manages to create a nice and epic atmosphere during certain scenes but I feel like the overall atmosphere often tends to lack a sense of urgency and despair, since there are constant sudden switches between suspenseful moments and casual scenes which feels unnatural at times. Also probably the only thing I actually despised about the game is the romance... I wish it was possible to just put Rinka in a harem with Mao and Naomi, instead of forcing her in a relationship with that insufferable, childish brat Miharu .... Either way I like the different endings, they kind of have pacing issues (some are way too short, whereas others way too long) but as a whole it was nice to see different outcomes. I genuinely didn't expect the plot to end up being that complex in the true ending, some of it feels a bit "too much" but at the same time I found it fun to learn about it. Altogether I really love the game's whole concept and was immersed in the story but the execution ended up somewhat underwhelming occasionally, despite how amazing the potential is. Still a very clever and entertaining visual novel, in my opinion!

Gorgeous art, great characters with a good story backing them up that only very occasionally gets dips with anime-logic/ long explanations of the system behind events works. Enjoyed reading it through and the endings I got were satisfying for the most part. More of a straight visual novel with some choices of varying consequence scattered throughout. Would be nice if they fixed the eye colour inconsistency in the route for ending 2/3

Great game - in my opinion, one of the better VNs. Good story idea, good execution (though changing POVs for other characters kinda kills the suspense a bit). Likeable characters, good 3D (i.e. characters are not flat, have good motivations, wants, needs). Best pairing :3

July 2024
A fantasy visual novel of a school girl who is caught in the midst of a divine competition, well worth of a read. STORY: By and large the main selling point of the novel. It is unique, intriguing, well written, very well translated, and highly enjoyable to read. The main character, Rinka, dies off in an explosion and has the chance - through divine intervention - to stay alive by competing against 11 other people who also died in different circumstances, which all are secondary characters The way the competition is set up is highly interesting and leads to a variety of decisions from all participants, including some scrupulous yet understandable actions along the way from some of them. There are multiple change of hearts and self-reflections along the way, though, often benefitting the main protagonist, which though well explained by the story may neverthless be seen as a plot device designed to keep her alive, even in the midst of her naivite and good-hearted nature. There are a number of choices along the way that lead fairly quickly to a number of different bad and main endings, most of which are predictable in nature but all nevertheless enjoyable to read. Key story points can be seen in the Cardbook and Summary modes from the game menu, and seen endings can be seen in the Extras menu, which are all nice to have. ARTWORK: Character sprites are superbly drawn, including all secondary characters, though no animated expressions. There is a big library of CGs included, equally well drawn and pleasing to look at. Great variety of well designed backgrounds too. SOUND: Well paced and matches well with the story points. While it does not stand out as much as its story or its artwork, it is still very enjoyable to listen to. Unfortunately there is no BGM mode available to listen to the songs individually. Voice acting is of good quality and manages to capture well the emotional ups and downs of the story. SUMMARY: A standout and unique fantasy visual novel with good pricing to match. 9/10

It has been a while since I last played this VN and I have went through a couple of the same genre since then. However, my mind would always remember this particular novel for the following reasons: [*]Unique plot: Once you get into the meat of it, it will be hard to put the game down. This is not your run-of-the-mill death game where the protagonist simply survives because of plot armor; [*]Lovable characters: I never thought any of them annoying or irritating. Each character has their own peculiarity, and the writers did them justice by leaning into their weirdness; [*]Music: Not too overbearing, not too repetitive. [*] Miharu. Like, man, just give me Miharu straight up.
