This is another game I've been playing recently. It's a visual novel telling the story of a girl whose family returns to a town that they used to live in. When they originally lived there, she went missing twice which sparked rumors about her and her family, so returning here means facing the family's past. Which is not the most fun seeing as how her twin brother seems to hate her for what happened. It only gets worse when they finally move in.
At their new school, you meet Ally, who's an old friend of the family, and plenty of male characters to romance. Ally figures out that the narrator is surrounded by Faerie power, and invites her to join the club of other high schoolers that are similar. There it is revealed that Ally herself is a witch, and other students are vampires, werewolves, and Faeries as well. The story consists of the main character exploring her past and her powers while getting to know this new world and new friends.
I wasn't super into this game at first. The character design is pretty distinctive and I didn't really vibe with it at first. Not to mention that the majority of the cast is these male characters who I wasn't super into. But over time, you discover more about the characters and realize that they're more than the tropes that they are presented as. Which is actually pretty on brand for how I feel about romancing men in general. And the integration of fantasy elements with modern day high schoolers is pretty fun at times. It reminds me of a lot of YA fantasy novels I liked back in the day.
Overall the game has something like six different characters to romance, each with multiple endings. This means that I'm probably going to be playing for a while. I'm looking forward to exploring this world with Faeries and other mystical creatures, as well as resolving who the protagonist is and what secrets her past hold.
