Exceptional

by Mia Blais-Côté

Nice short Game with a slightly gloomy Story and good, not too heavy Puzzles I really liked, even if the Story was a little sad. The more you played, the more you learned what it's all about. After finishing the Game, I still don't have everything 100% clear, but most actually taps into it on its own. (At least if you've explored a bit and read a lot) I also love such Pixel-like Games with a lot of Detail, beautiful Music and a perfectly fitting Atmosphere. Despite the somewhat grim Story, I found everything fitting and loving. I was definitely Fun and I'm excited about the other Games of Miwashiba!

A nice, nice Game for in between. The Graphics of this Game may not be for Everyone (especially for People who don't really like Pixel Games), but I can still say that the Game is beautifully designed and by no means bad. The Characters all include a beautiful, small But fine story and the Innuendo behind it, has also been well implemented. The Game is Accompanied by Piano pieces, which (in my Opinion) did not really affect the Atmosphere, but are still nice to listen to. The only Minus Point in the Game is the Options or Settings that don't exist at all. The Music, no matter how beautiful it may sound, is (for my Taste) a little too loud. Even when I regularly put it on the PC, at the Audio Mixer, the audio to this Game, Hasn't felt anything changed? But all in all, I can still recommend this Game for the People who like RPG's OR want them to play.

A nice little Adventure with a focus on Story and Characters. There are also a few Puzzles, but if you have played through at least a Part of Professor Layton, these are not worth talking about. Even the Graphics can't score particularly, especially if you haven't grown up with the big Pixels. So what's left? First, there is Story and Characters: One plays Allen, a Sage Child with Amnesia, who is taken In by a good-natured man (who likes to be addressed as a "Teacher") and who offers shelter in his large estate To four other Wise people. One Night, After an Event, Allen finds himself in a Dream World inhabited by two mysterious Figures, which is somehow linked to the other Wise Men. In the Course of the Game, he reveals his own Past, that of the other Children and that of the good-natured Man. You might think now that you can already guess something about ... But it's different than you'd think. There are also several Endings that you should all look at to understand everything. Second, there's the Soundtrack: Did I really surprise to hear such well-tuned Songs at such a Game. Partly also with well-known classic pieces. So from me it gets a Recommendation. Such small Pearls should be emphasized. Similar to "To the Moon," where you don't look directly at what's behind it.
