Revenant March

The stories are gripping, and I found the decisions I needed to make compelling, I had to think about them. I felt acutely that the many strong characters had thoughts and emotions I would have to discover as the story progressed, including the narrator. I've played five hours thus far, in two sittings that both went longer than I'd planned.

The story is engaging and has a very nice twist, soundtrack is enjoyable too.

I'll start with a caveat that I most likely didn't achieve the optimal ending and didn't have the time to fully explore the game to find it – there are dozens of choices in it and while the core structure of the story is rather linear, there's a lot to experiment with if you want to find the right path. What I saw, however, was already pretty great – a lot of serious moral dilemmas, an interesting, gloomy setting and a deep mystery to uncover. It was tense, gruesome and emotionally engaging. The characters, including the protagonist, had well thought out motivations and personalities. The choice maze was made bearable by the ability to quickly go back on track after reaching a dead end. The art is simple, but rather stylish and climatic. In the end, though, it's the writing that makes this game worthwhile – I really enjoyed the world it showed and the twists it frequently introduced. The story is even more of a detective plot than the summary would suggest, with the protagonist, young exorcist named Olenine, having to navigate multiple layers of mystery and deception. I was captivated by it all the way through and if you're a fan of this kind of stories, I strongly recommend to buy and read this one – it's pretty short, but provides more than enough enjoyment for the $5 price tag. ------------- PS If you're interested in quality visual novels, check out [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/32980295/]my curator page[/url].

What a pleasant surprise this turned out to be! This visual novel contains an engaging story-line with thrilling plot twists, a cast of interesting, non-cliche characters, and a lovely, intelligent heroine. Setting: Revenant March is a dark fantasy set in the Middle Ages. It tackles two mysteries: the horrors that occur in Gremach, and Olenine's backstory. Characters: I absolutely loved following Olenine's perspective, and how logical minded, yet still empathetic she could act towards the other characters. She ticks all of the boxes in my female protagonist requirements, and I wish we had more main characters similar to her. The side characters are memorable, and their dynamic with Olenine was impressive. Most noteworthy were her interactions with other, equality well written, female characters; such as Tanith and Seilana. But I have to say, her possible friendship with Ennet was also very precious. The vn lacks romance, but the way the story unfolds makes up for it. I recommend Revenant March to any vn enthusiast that enjoys a gripping tale, and a fantastic female mc. Readers of young adult fantasy novels would also appreciate this as well!

Played and beat the game in one sitting,got it and wasn't expecting much from it. But the story and characters really pull you in and it is a really good game. But I have one issues with the game That one being that for a game that is all about choices their is only one ending that sucks in my opinion. But over all I really like this game and if you have the money for it I say go for it and get it.

I'm sleep-deprived and I feel bad for not finding this game sooner. Seriously, this is worth more than the price tag that I'm considering donating to the developer on itch. io for how good they made this underrated gems. Yes, the art is just finding its footing, but the writing is where this game is at. So what is it about? Well, without spoiling too much, we play as Olenine (or Olly) who is an exorcist being hired to deal with finding the missing niece as well as the occurrence of ghoul and revenant outside the village. I have only recently gotten interested in the premise of the undead and zombies, but this game just amplified that, not only is the writing intriguing with a few bumpers, and doing a good job establishing the lore as well as writing plot twists without making them come out of nowhere. It was quite addicting that I just give typing notes and just screenshots of whatever details I would need to remember, so I could just enjoy the game for what it is without pause. As for the small cast of characters and that's including the 'antagonist' they were well-rounded and in-depth enough to understand their 5 Ws (Why, What, Where, Who, and When) so we can emphasise them even if we don't agree with all their choices. Speaking of choices, a few different outcomes are depending on your relationship with certain characters so it is worth trying playing different save slots to see the other endings. Furthermore, there are plenty of ways to die, but don't worry this game is quite genuine spawning you back before you made the 'wrong decision', so you don't have to worry about restarting everything. Honestly, this might be the lack of coffee speaking, but I absolutely love Revenant March and I'm glad to see there are 10+ reviews this month (thanks to the other reviewers), so I hope this game gets more recognition it deserves moving forward.

plot muito interessante, histórica rica e escolhas legais. Uma pena que tenha acabado com uma ponta solta, espero que lancem continuaçao um dia. Com certeza vale a pena jogar, plot surpreendente.

Best Visual Novel I've ever played. The writing is stellar and the suspense is POTENT. I found myself utterly entranced by this world and it's characters and knowing the ending drove me to finish it in one sitting.

This game is incredibly well-written. You'll get sucked right in and then notice the beauty of the writing from time to time, especially during action scenes, but the real skill is in how everything is paced. SO MUCH SUSPENSE. Plus, your choices really matter, so that's fun, even if the core story is linear. There are multiple endings available, and not to spoiler anything, but I will admit I cried. The characters are all complex and have their own motivations. The music and art is pretty great, too. I especially liked the battle music. I was a beta-player for an earlier version, which is why I got a free key to use for the final version. No other compensation was given, but man! I don't *need* any other compensation when it's a game this good.
