A thrilling FMV visual novel
The developers of ‘She Sees Red’ made it very clear that this title is an interactive movie. Essentially, it’s a visual novel, but with full-motion videos (FMV). In each playthrough, players make decisions that will affect how the story unfolds. Different decisions can reveal background information that complete the overall narrative. Given that, players are expected to go through ‘She Sees Red’ multiple times – at least twice. Each playthrough lasts a bit longer than 30 minutes, so players will get anywhere from 1 to 1.5 hours out of this title at the minimum. Adamant on unlocking and viewing all 62 unique scenes, I spent just a bit more than 3 hours on it. Whether or not ‘She Sees Red’ is worth the current price point will depend on how much you’re willing to spend on buying a movie or TV show digitally. Yet, don’t let ‘She Sees Red’ being an FMV title fool you: it features performances, cinematography, and fight choreography that are actually pretty darn great. It has high production value and it’s well edited. During the first couple of playthroughs, I was intrigued by the story. I remained curious as I tried to unlock other endings during my third and fourth playthroughs. The title did overstay its welcome after that, but that’s in part due to my quest to unlock all scenes. Although ‘She Sees Red’ tells you how many unique scenes you’ve viewed, it doesn’t tell you which ones you’ve missed. Because of that you’ll have to keep track of the decisions you’ve made and the paths you’ve taken. Sometimes the scenes are so subtly different that I didn’t realize I was watching a new one. Although you can skip scenes you’ve already watched, you can’t just jump to a story branching point. It’s a missing feature that would have earned this title a perfect score. Still, I really enjoyed ‘She Sees Red’ in spite of that one flaw. It’s entertaining as long as you keep your expectations in check. It makes for a fun diversion from playing bigger, more elaborate games.
