Brilliant Shadows - Part One of the Book of Gray Magic

I thoroughly enjoyed this game! The art is lovely, the characters are interesting and the plot wasn't too obvious. And Ash and her love life were very relatable! Also the music is awesome and at one point I even just had the game open just so I could listen to it while doing other things... Though I think the choices aspect was a bit limited and I don't know what I DID that made it branch out or not (will have to play it again to get the other branches!) but the game felt a bit short. But that's the only negative thing about it.

I cannot gush over this game enough. It was everything I expected and then more. The voice actors are amazing, the art beautiful and the story is really phenomenal. I loved this so much

Good art and voice acting. Enjoyable plot. Story develops at a good pace and is longer than I thought it would be. I don't regret purchasing and will check out the sequel.

Eğlenceli bir görsel roman olmuş.Çok nadir seçeneklerimiz var.

Good story, good characters, only a few mistakes (that are easy to ignore). Overall this is a really entertaining game. There are three endings, most of your choices actually matter, and the skip options in the settings make going through all three endings quick if you want it to be.

Наверное, лучшая из визуальных новелл, в которые я играла. Потрясающе красивая яркая картинка, живые персонажи и интересная история. Жанр я бы обозначила как любовное фэнтези, и в этом плане игра куда лучше большинства подобных книг. Мне понравился мир, который напомнил почему-то мир Героев Меча и Магии, только при условии, что фракции людей и некромантов наконец взялись за ум и перестали воевать между собой. Теперь у некромантов с паладинами полная гармония, любовь и взаимопонимание. Свежий взгляд на взаимоотношения, я бы сказала.

An amazingly well crafted story. One of my favorite visual novels.

so good, worth the time and money! i loved the bloopers at the end !!! master blass glower had me rolling.

I'm this game's target audience. Like, ♥♥♥♥ yeah wanna play a lesbian necromancer! This game didn't really do it for me though. First, having the protagonist non-consensually kiss someone, not once but twice is... idk man. It doesn't really get looked at or examined as bad behavior either, it just kinda is. The plot didn't make much sense either. Some of it I'm sure is just because it's only a part of a larger series, but there are definitely plot-holes. Like, okay, Hector was a grey-mage. Why was that at all a surprise to the heads? Especially since they had a device that can check that kind of thing? A device which one of the characters specifically mentions as a reason why Hector couldn't be a grey mage? The game also tries and fails to do a strong theme around being lesbian. A good 90% of the problems the MC faces can be summed up as the VN vaguely gesturing to some unspecified homophobia that we never really see or experience. And, besides one instance of a straight girl being super weird around Ash (to be fair, straight girls behavior there was realistic in my experience) it's never really shown. Especially when the two heads of the school are both sapphic women. MC doesn't really seem to have almost any other problems that don't relate to her sexuality. The romance at the end is kinda bad too. Like, Ash, you've met her twice. The entirety of what Ash knows about her supposed partner is that she's pretty. Especially when Terra starts freaking out about changeling racism. Maybe it makes sense for Terra's character to jump to such conclusions immediately, but a) before Terra, Ash didn't even know that changelings even existed and b) that amount of trauma dumping isn't a good way to treat people.

1.游戏的画风我非常喜欢，一身绿的的女主角，金色丰满的女圣骑士，一身肌肉的异域男圣骑士，软绵绵的蓝衣女亡灵法师，还有英俊的女圣骑士她妈，都让人印象深刻。 2.故事的剧情是挺有张力的，始终围绕着女主角结对失败、找不到他的另一半这个谜团展开的，夹杂着让人恐惧的灰法师，一段让人毫不反感的三角恋，以及一个超级阴谋。人物的性格都非常突出让人难忘，男亡灵被视作怪胎，叛逆、神秘，冷漠不共情，但逐渐展示出了难能可贵的真诚、执着、聪慧；女主角看似高挑冷漠，实则感情丰富，一点点波动就能让她心绪澎湃；女生其实天真、热情，善良得让人心痛；蓝衣亡灵女骄傲又娇气，什么都无所谓，喜欢肌肉男圣骑士结果对方是gay... 人物不多，个个都难忘。 3.古怪的三角恋挺有意思，女女男三角恋，多情的女主角和三好青年男亡灵法师同时爱上了天真善良的女圣骑士，结果女主角和三好青年根本打不起来，因为夹在中间的女二只会喜欢一个性别，二人不可能出现什么感情上的误会，后来就出现了三好青年不忍心伤害情敌的感情，女主去坦然亲吻情敌这种事情，总之是很有意思，一点也不婆婆妈妈你死我活今天误会明天绝交的。 4.游戏看似一堆法师，其实在我看来是低魔世界，什么法师啊，真打起来都是废物一样。最后一战，（不知道怎么隐藏剧透部分，此处删除214个字）我都看呆了.... 总体上来说，当小说看是非常好看的。
