![]() As much as I love listening to other languages, even ones I don’t understand, it was very nice to have a game I could follow without reading along. This game has full English language voiceovers. Voice acting All mysterious towns should be only accessible by train. Instead, it’s an advantage since you can’t skip text you haven’t read yet by accident. This isn’t a problem, I just wanted to mention it because it is so unusual that I actually thought it was a bug at first. ![]() Unlike any other visual novel I’ve played, you have to go into options to set the skip forward button in order to race through text you haven’t read yet. However, I understand the developer is working on patches to fix these two issues. I couldn’t get the scene descriptions to work, or the screen shakes to turn off. Any Problems?Īs mentioned above, although I don’t consider myself qualified to review them extensively, I did try and test the accessibility features. ![]() Unlockable images, guest art, and the ability to play the musical numbers you’ve come across. There’s a handful of bonus content features. It’s the sort of background scenery that I would have me pausing to look closer if I saw it in an art museum. I particularly enjoyed some of the scenes in the forest with pinks, purples, and whites. The character designs are top-notch, and the backgrounds are gorgeous. This is one of those games where it’s tough to notice the music because it does its job so well: creates a mood in the background. Art, Music and Bonus Content Can I go there? Much easier to read even when the font is small. It does have OpenDyslexic font, which I always appreciate. The font comes in two sizes, although I didn’t see much difference between them. Please see the problems section below for more details. I did try to make sure they are operational and came up with an issue or two. This title has accessibility features! I don’t feel qualified to give a solid review on them, as I am not familiar enough with their uses, but I’ve included the screencap so that you all can see what features are available. I usually want to, but the voice acting in this title is so good I often found myself slowing down to appreciate it. This game has highly adjustable text speeds, and I am happy to report that you can move at a fast reading clip if you so desire. I enjoyed this because it provided a more complex picture of how the characters were feeling and interacting. The point-of-view switches back and forth between characters as you progress. ![]() Most of the game is just following the story of Maddie, Tara, and the companions they meet along the way. I like to think of it more as a mini-series played out on my Switch. There are very few choices to be made, and they lead to just a handful of endings. Gameplay Because being in a cabin in a spooky forest is the best vacation spot. The Nintendo eShop description gives more away, but I enjoyed playing it so much without spoilers that I prefer not to spoil too much here. What and who they find there will change their lives forever. Maddie decides to make one last show with Tara, and they travel to the small town of Eysenfeld. Maddie is ready to move on to something new, a decision that Tara doesn’t like. Maddie and Tara are best friends who work together on a vlog covering paranormal events. This title checked a lot of boxes for me, so without any further delay, let’s take a look! Story How else was I to block out the spooky sounds! Review code used with many thanks to Sekai Games!Īfter taking a dip in the ocean for my past couple of reviews, I moved on to the paranormal woodlands of the Yuri visual novel Heart of the Woods.
