My friend is a touhou fan who got me this game to try with him. I have very little experience in touhou and I think my perspective might be valuable as an outsider for outsiders who are considering playing the game. I found the exposition to drag as it is inflated with many lines of dialogue and monologue describing perfectly capable character portraits that I felt already described the character's conditions with no text necessary. I recommend skipping the majority of early dialogue. I did not find much compelling about the main characters. I'm sure there is a great wealth of character mythos that has endeared you to these characters but I - not having known touhou - was not compelled by them. I will play more but I feel the game's beginning drags and you have to be very forgiving of repetition and strange pacing to get into this game.

Amazing game, very touching story that actually made me shed some tears. I'll just add one recommendation for Linux players: make sure to explicitly pick Proton as the compatibility tool from the library page. By default it will pick the Steam Linux Runtime which will look fine at first but breaks achievements and causes some gameplay bugs that aren't there with Proton.
这部作品真的刻画出了我心中的秘封组,很感动。 虽然是全英文,但查查单词,就当积累词汇句式了。 (而且剧情能打这么久,这个价格真的很值,看出来制作组的诚心了)
好喜欢这样的解密啊,不过最后真的是希望结局剧情长一点,希望还有后续作品,有更多剧情。。。。。
大概是21,22年左右玩过demo,迫于没有简中玩得一知半解,现在再重新尝试还是别有风味,第二次玩有简中确实方便了不少,简中的翻译其实还挺透彻的最起码看得懂也读得舒服,不过第二次玩还是重新被吓到了,游戏内的解密其实还是挺简单的感觉10个小时差不多就能通关,流程还可以,不过本身带有一些恐怖元素, 过完篇章还会有点小剧情类似电子小说那种(?),不过刚开始玩我确实被这个音乐和氛围哈到了,而且里面的幻想乡人物设计的确实是有一种眼前一亮,初见确实有点怕,真的整个氛围超级超级棒美术也很不错,秘封是好文明啊
在bilibili刷到实况视频于是决定购入,算是秘封启蒙作了,情绪渲染和音乐以及美术都非常优秀,美中不足的可能就是每个章节之间切换得有点生硬,以及关于幻想乡为什么会变成这样并没有明确说明。不过瑕不掩瑜,总体来说质量很棒。 通关之后的后劲好大啊....尤其是最后的选择,我犹豫了好久.....梅莉😭我真的不知道该怎么选啊😭

A lot less horror than I was imagining, but a lot better puzzles than I was imagining. Probably the best RPGMaker horror-style game in terms of actual gameplay, and that's a breath of fresh air for sure. Also gay women
性价比非常高的作品 不论是音乐还是剧情节奏把控 目前比较可惜的是没有中文 背了四级尝试头铁生啃,但是解谜游戏( 比较胃疼的是DON'T LET结局几乎可以说是BE TE我也胃疼 但多数人应该还好 总之佳作 只是我被刀麻了(梅紫太噩了
