Well-made visual novel

Arcadia Fallen is a visual novel with role-playing elements. There are some choices and branching in dialogues, with certain personality choices ("How do you feel about A?"/"What do you want to do about B?") being reflected throughout the story, though the range of roleplay felt limited in regard to the central point of the main story - the protagonist has been living in a small town where the locals are very transparent in their dislike for the PC and their teacher, Elizabeth, while the main quest is focused on saving this town from a demon invasion. Somehow, the game managed to make the locals less sympathetic than the shadowy pokemons. Alas, there was no option to let them sort out their differences without the party's interference. Speaking of the party, there are 5 companions and their stories can have different outcomes, including bad endings. Overall, the subplots and side quests were satisfying, while the lore and the setting (steampunk, leaning more towards magic) were rich and detailed. The UI is a thing of beauty - the short summaries of the dialogue options have the intonations and explanations (e.g. that the option will advance the dialogue) attached to them and the important conversations are clearly communicated, with the pop-up windows for the points of no-return. Additionally, the character customisation (name, appearance, gender identity/pronouns, which are not bound to the body type), the ability to save at any time, and the protagonist not auto-dialoguing nor auto-staring at boobs/butts are most welcome. The alchemy puzzles were reasonably engaging, though the inability to throw the poison vials at certain NPCs was disappointing. That is, the ability to create potions or bombs is used during specific points of the story, but there is no actual inventory and supply of consumables to be used at will. The art style and graphics are expressive and stylish and the characters have a lot of sprites, though very few CGs. The music and partial VA are present and I did not turn them off during the playthrough. Overall, I enjoyed the game and can recommend it.
