Sym.BIOS: Torn Asunder

Cela faisait une éternité que je ne m'étais pas plongé dans une visual novel. Sym:BIOS offre quelques choix vraiment rafraîchissants, notamment une DA très typée, qui me séduit énormément, et surtout, une narration non linéaire, qui prend le temps de développer les différents personnages. De plus, les choix linguistiques sont osés, mais fonctionnent parfaitement. L'univers SF choisi est aussi sympathique, même si certaines références sont un peu trop évidentes. Pour autant, même si le postulat peut sembler un peu bateau, la mayonnaise prend bien et c'est un vrai régal d'enfiler la dizain d'heures nécessaires au déroulement de l'histoire. La seule chose qui m'a vraiment irrité, c'est la fin qui semble franchement brutale (en tout cas, les deux que j'ai débloquées), on voudrait rester encore un peu avec nos protagonistes, pour voir jusqu'où l'intrigue peut aller. En résumé, un très bon premier projet, et je suis curieux de voir la suite.

Super VN dont l'histoire s'inspire de l'oeuvre SF The Expanse et porté par une musique électro ambient atmosphérique!

Very nice game so far, obviously written with a lot of care ! drawings and sound effects are definitly on point, and if you like synthwave you wont be disapointed. I'm usually feeling bored during sci-fi setups, but I figured what the heck lets give it a try. So, i'm not far into it obviously, but i'm actually very surprised about how well polished is this game. Definitly needs more visibility on steam. Going back to finish it now :p

I don't usually play visual novels, but this time was an exception and so far there is no disappointment. The artwork is beautiful, I love the landscapes and character design!!! And the story is wonderful and so full of creativity, the future is interesting, the dialogues are interesting, colourful and some very funny, the characters have strong and versatile personnalities, I love them, especially the duo Chrys and Joa!!! The music is enchanting, escpecially the rearrangement of the Tosca opera. Congratulations to the whole team, you can be proud of the result! I can't wait to finish the game!

Loved it, really good story and writings. The start is a bit slow but story really hooks you when the main events begin. Atmospheric OST definitely worth it too. Strongly recommended for people liking SF visual novel with a complex and twisted story.

N'étant pas particulièrement client du genre, j'ai pourtant bien apprécié Sym.BIOS. Le jeu n'est pas sans défauts, certes, mais l'histoire est prenante et révèle une qualité d'écriture qui pousse à vouloir connaître la suite ! Le tout est supporté par des visuels au style original et maîtrisé, traduisant bien cet univers Sci-Fi particulier et peu rencontré.

amazing artwork with great details, and sumptuous music, immersive and atmospheric. a great deal of thought was paid to the story and the depth of the characters and it shows. the dialogues are quirky and feel "real", helping to lean into the dialogues and personalities of the protagonists. the soundtrack is out of this world on its own also. definitely recommended, a high quality offering.

Very good visual novel! It's different from what we usually see. I Haven't finish it yet, but each character have a strong personnality. Some dialogue are very funny too! If you like sci fi with very good writting quality go ahead!

Vrai jeu indépendant qui transpire la passion que ce soit au niveau du scénario, de la musique ou de la direction artistique. Si vous aimez les visual novels et la science fiction : ce jeu est fait pour vous.

SBTA is visual novel I bought thinking I could play it with one hand. At this point, most of you know what kind of visual novel usually are in my library. I must admit, I didn't find what I've searched for initially, there is sex in this game, but not buga-buga sex. As a matter of fact, it is only a line about a threesome that made me laugh so hard the I continued and didn't ask for a refund. So I started playing it on my steam deck (it works fine) and I discovered that it took the place of my daily reading. And this really means what it means: the writing is that good! The main plot is well built (better that many movies), the characters compensate the lack of huge boobs with other kind of character development, and the end... My god it is so well made. I won't say more than it is very satisfying! So is it the game I thought it would be? No far from it. But it is a great game that made me put my other hand on my desk and read!
