I really enjoyed the game. The music is beautiful, the background art is unique and the character sprites have a certain vibe to it that just adds to the whole atmosphere. My favorite thing was definitely how lively it was despite being a visual novel, the characters moving around and especially Nome's shots got me hooked because it's obvious how much work was put into this. One of the things I didn't like was how the characters reacted with so low emotions to almost everything. (spoiler warning i guess?)
Cecil had little to no suspission towards Nome, I can understand how it was for the plot but still, Annie's only reaction to finding Cecil was ,,hey we should head home" (yeah she did have some sort of reactions but in my opinion too little considering that her livelyhood depended on if she could find him or not), Cecil's meeting with Lucy felt just kind of... dissapointing. of course that's just my way of seeing things! the only other thing I wan't the biggest fan of was the fact that the game used a lot of ,,tell not show" instead of the other way around. (examples: Lucy telling Cecil about her and Nemo's past, Lucy's uncle telling her what happend could have been shown in flashbacks maybe, but that's just the way I would do it and of curse if somebody preffers the way it is now is completely fine!) And I wish we could have gotten something more done with the pills, since it could cure vampirism maybe try giving it to Lucy with her consent?
I also liked how vampires were treated like normal humans by most of the people until they attacked someone, it's not normally seen in media featuring them. And my friend and I really enjoyed Nome's and Ambresome's relationship, it's cute. And the dialogues were really nice to read. I often have a problem with media where dialogues just feel so unnatural, but I had a good time reading the ones in this project! Overall great game
Thank you so much for playing, glad you enjoyed the game! We're actually working on a sequel to it right now, which focuses on Lucie and the cure to vampirism set a few years after this first game. You can find the demo for it on our itch.io page.
This was a great experience! It's a solidly written mystery with very fun character interactions, I particularly liked how Cecil is always trying to be a proper gentleman despite being just a little boy with a very sheltered upbringing. It was insanely cute <3 The art is lovely too, with the unique UI details for the two POV characters being a very charming touch, and everything fits wonderfully into the Victorian aesthetic.
Loved it! Beautiful artwork and animations to go with such a cute story. The characters are wonderful, too (though sometimes I want to strangle Cecil for how dense he is). The part with Teddy certainly got me and Leroy is quite adorable. I've got a lot of questions from the ending, so I'm curious to see if you're planning to continue it? If not, that's alright as well - it certain stands on its own feet. Thanks for making this! :)
I enjoyed this visual novel a lot, the music, the art, the story and the setting were engaging. I can see myself coming back to this like an old favorite book. Can't wait to see more from you.

Enjoyable read so far, even though some things rather predictable. Art is very pretty. I read until chapter 20, save it for tomorrow
