A supernatural spectacle.
I'll be honest. I did not expect this to last more than an hour and a half and thought of it little more than a ghost story in the CoG lineup. I was pleasantly surprised to find it a well written Lovecraft-inspired (albeit with some minor typos or coding errors, mostly to do with Bastion/Sophia and their pronouns) work, worth the asking price. The chapters are of a decent length and have a good pace to them, even the labyrinth surprising me on my consecutive playthroughs with having more than on
Work of art
Highly recommend.
Cuddle parties are now game requirements.
I love CoGs. I have all my current games sorted by genre on my second page of apps, and I purchase all my favorite games on steam so that they are doubly available to play.
Usually I restrain my interest to the brand, but this game has me wanting a fandom like all my favorite novels and television shows.
Very entertaining
I was engrossed for most of the day. Solid writing, although not better than what you'll find in any run-of-the-mill book set in this period. The story starts to come apart at the end; the writing gets broader, less specific, and choices you have made are referenced incorrectly, not built on, etc. A warning: I bought this because I like ghost stories, but this is a Lovecraftian story. If you're not into Cthulu derivatives, maybe skip.
Amazing Game
This is a lovecraftian horror game. It’s less about jumps and more about the unknown. It’s a fantastic mystery game that kept me hooked through the entire night. I eagerly await a second installment. I know there likely won’t be one but I will wait none the less.
Must buy
This game is one of my favorite COG, I recommend this 💯 especially if you are a sucker for a good romantic game.
The Best Game I’ve Ever Played
I’ve never read a story so captivating. I could barely stop reading, and even when I wasn’t on this app I was thinking about it and what would happen next in the story. I plan to go through the story many more times because there are so many different paths to take and i’m excited to explore all of them. This game is amazing and completely worth the money; I hope the creator continues to write many more stories like this because I’m excited to read more!
Favorite text adventure
I have had this game on my phone for years, probably when it first came out. When I first got it, I played it through several times, and then played it a bit less as time went on. I just replayed it for the first time in 2 years, and I was just as enraptured by the story as the first time I played it.
The story is so good, the characters are all great, and it’s just such a good choose your own adventure story. The choices you make, things you can do and say, all great. Do yourself a favor and p
great replay value
The whole story is very gothic in a way and kinda Lovecraftian and it draws you in from the get go. It's very kooky and every character is interesting..And the challenge of making sure your character thrives all the way to the end was very exciting.
Fantastic game
This one wowed me. I look forward to playing this through a million more times. One of the best choice of games released.
Fantastic!
Will definitely play this through again. Spooky and twisty, with a lot of complex magic and a very powerful conclusion. Loved it!
Wow, just wow!
This has to be the BEST Choice of Game story. Wonderful and memorable characters. An awesome story...keep me on my toes and made seriously consider my choices.
Wonderful, wonderful story.
Excellent story
I would have liked to see a bit stronger of a romance with Oriana at the end of the story, but it was terrific nonetheless. I would love to see a sequel!
Help?
When I start the game it tells me I need to download the new version and every time I try it fails I’ve tried deleting the game and reinstalling it but is still doesn’t work
SEQUEL???
This game is worth the money and the read! 10/10 And would very much love a sequel!
Very amazing app!!
I would give this app ten stars if I could! The story and characters are well written! I can’t wait to see where my next choice will take me!
This is highly reminiscent of Choose Your Own Adventure.
It is well worth the money!
