Heart of Enya

Cute, wholesome and engaging. The story is great, pretty nice and the kind of things some people really need to hear sometimes. One thing that seems a bit off about the story is how linear it is. While there are elements of a visual novel, especially the presentation overall experience is more akin to a web comic. Combat is really fun and challenging. The way you can fight progressively harder enemies without withdrawing means winning might not be hard, but you can always push yourself further. Kill 1 more Frost, keep 1 more resource for then wave and whatnot. Really my only complaint would be that is possible that I missed some of the story by blazing through combat. For example like not getting [i]A Daring Escape[/i] achievement mean I probably missed at least 1 day at the campfire. However, the only reason this is an issue is the fact that story is so great.Other small issue is that withdrawing initially feels bad, it takes a few in-game days to actually be told you are meant to withdraw and that it doesn't mean 'failing a level' rather each day you make progress toward a big goal that would be nearly impossible to accomplish in 1 day, It bears highlighting just how polished the combat is. You are given very few tools, and yet I found myself amazed just how much I was able to do with them. Using stunned enemies to block pathways or tossing characters Chargeing abilities. Definitely one of the best executions of grid based combat, right next to [i]Into the Breach[/i] or [i]Wakfu[/i]. There are many cute touches all over the game, such as Making Soup, how many throwing Soleil was the strategic move or Snowbank. Overall, great and I cannot recommend it enough, especially to people who already enjoy a cute story or tactical combat. Really at this point, my biggest regret is how short of an experience this is 💚

Gleich am Anfang des Spiels gibt es eine nicht überspringbare Szene über die Anrede der Personen. Dabei muss natürlich ausgeführt werden, dass eine Person sich nicht männlich/weiblich zuordnen kann. Das spricht eigentlich für sich selbst, wahrscheinlich ist das Spiel auch deshalb kostenlos... Was danach kommt ist ein simpelstes Strategie Spiel ohne jegliche Tiefe. Keine Klassen zum wählen und weiter spezialisieren, keine Gegenstände zum Ausrüsten, immer wieder spawnende Gegner und repetitives Gameplay. Fazit: Belangloses Spiel, welches das Thema "divers" unbedingt am Anfang und danach in den Vordergrund stellen muss. Spielerisch ohne jede Tiefe. Statt auf Minderheiten hätte man sich besser mal um die Entwicklung eines ordentlichen Gameplays kümmern sollen... Zeitverschwendung.

I love this game!! Soup + queer themes + gorgeous art = supremely enjoyable gameplay experience <3

This short game is lovely in so many ways! The character art and background art are amazing, the representation is great, the dialogue is sweet and genuine, the relationships are interesting, the gameplay is satisfying and doesn't punish the player for mistakes. I really loved this experience and finished the game feeling seen and happy! Amazing work! Would totally pay for a fuller, longer version (maybe with more characters!) <3

Liked: - Simple mechanics combine for interesting strategy - Threats and challenges are clearly communicated - Gradual introduction of new abilities and strategic options - Nice, heartwarming story Disliked: - Little room for playstyle customization - Dialogue occasionally feels a bit forced / overly scripted

Sıcak bir hikâye anlatımıyla strateji ve görsel romanı birleştiren güzel bir deneyim. Karakterler ve atmosfer hoş ama oynanış biraz yavaş gelebilir. Sakin, hikâye odaklı oyunları sevenler için ideal.

Luvely game! Awesome story, nice fighting mechanics. One character who uses they/them pronouns, one uses he/they (if I remember correctly), queer luv
