Devil's Kiss

I think that Devil’s Kiss is a very interesting way to try to get people into a game series. A short; low cost game that introduces the characters for a more expensive game (Lair of the Clockwork God). It did it’s job here as I now want to go out and buy Lair of the Clockwork God. Devil’s Kiss has some great humour to it and does a good amount of backstory and character introductions for it’s run time. It doesn’t take itself seriously at all and that works for it. There are a good amount of choices to make and while they don’t impact the overall story a great deal they do provide a different path and interactions on your way there. The music is decent but a bit repetitive. The art is well done and has a good style and colour use to it. The dialogue is certainly my brand of wit. I played Devil’s Kiss on Linux. It never crashed on me and I didn’t notice any spelling errors. The game doesn’t allow any saves at all. Apparently they used to but had enough bugs and glitches with it that the developers removed it. While I would normally prefer a manual save system and any save system to none the game does have a short length so it’s not the biggest deal. Alt-Tab doesn’t work. You can adjust resolution and turn the music off but can’t adjust text speed or volume. API: OpenGL Game Version Played: 1_012_36900 Disk Space Used: 483 MB CPU Usage: 2-13 % RAM Usage: 2.0-2.2 GB I enjoyed my time with Devil’s Kiss. It’s refreshing when a game is just pure fun. I paid $2.29 CAD for it and that is more than a fair price given the game quality. I finished the game in thirty six minutes and while that is short the game didn’t feel rushed or stretched but had a great pace to it. There are a couple technical blemishes on the game but that didn’t impact my enjoyment. If you enjoy visual novels or are thinking about buying Lair of the Clockwork God you should give Devil’s Kiss a play.

Interesting but not really. Waste of time (or 1-2€).
