They teach you to fear rather than to be angry, but fear solves nothing.
Anger is there for a reason, to shield and protect you.
Anger is the part of you that cares.
Overall a pretty good visual novel.
The writing unfortunately seems to alternate between being legitimately good, descriptive, mystical writing on one hand, and an aspiring YA author's edgy power fantasy on the other, but it's easy enough to overlook these moments as the overall quality of the writing was still good enough to keep me engaged and interested until the end.
The visuals were similar to the writing, in that sometimes they really nail the surreal, creepy, dreamlike aesthetic they seem to be going for, and other times somebody has photoshopped a wolf's head on the Gigachad guy and called it a day. Not much to say about the sound and music, although the ending song was pretty good.
Wasn't going in with expectations.
What's here is true to source material and fairly interesting.
Ambient music and stellar artworks.
Like one of the old books only electronic.
This game is very story and atmosphere heavy, with stunning audiovisual presentation. While the ending might seem a bit rushed with the universe lore being dumped at you in several consecutive screens, even for people who do not follow/care about the Werewolf:The Apocalypse lore, the game gives enough organic clues to understand and enjoy what is going on.
TLDR: Highly enjoyable, can recommend
