Review for Episode 1: Silence First of all, I really like the pixelart. The reduced color palette reminds me of old photopgraphs which fits the time the story is set in. It's great to see a story about a female composer and her struggles without putting her in the spotlight as a woman but rather as an artist. Female composers faced hardships at that time (and they still do) and it's important to keep that in mind, at the same time it's great this story doesn't reduce her to being a woman. Portraying her as the artist she is, with all her flaws, dreams and struggles was heart-warming and I felt like this could've been a real story of an actual person. After your first playthrough you can see the percentage of other players who made the same major decisions as yourself which was really cool. You are also given the opportunity to jump back into the story right before every decision to change it and see the outcome which was not only great for getting some achievements but generally a really nice quality of life feature for people who want to see different paths of the story. The music was great, too, I really enjoyed the final song. Getting all achievements was a little tedious since you need to play through the game several times, but overall not hard, it took me less than 2.5 hours. I'm excited to play the other episodes, too.

What a truly beautiful game. I've played through Episode 2 now and this was a great introduction to set the scene for the series. Characters and dialogue are well written, the music is enchanting and I love that there are connections to previous episodes. I'll certainly be playing the rest of them soon.

Feb. 2024

Surprisingly beautiful, well-written and gorgeously rendered. I did not expect to feel so moved by what is essentially a "choose your own adventure" visual novel. I really cared for all characters by the end.
