You're on a mission to save the water world of Ren and its people by taking on the quest to obtain the legendary Water of Heart. A magical and fantastical tale. [h2][u]The Story[/u][/h2] You, Nanami Mizu Ren, are a student affairs officer in the water world of Ren. Your first mission is to travel to the human world of Rostania and collect “Heart Essence Droplets” to replenish the energy of Ren from collapsing. 🌶️ Spice Level - Low. There is nothing graphic or lewd in the game. Kisses are affectionate and feelings towards each other are wholesome. [h2][u]Settings, Features & Gameplay[/u][/h2] Settings & features include; display options, skip modes, language, text speed, audio controls, voice on or off, and auto speed settings. There are plenty of save slots too. You can go back or rewind parts of the game, skip forward and there is a history log as well. Extras include an unlockable gallery and music tracks. You can hide the hud by pressing H for screencaps. ✨ At first, when you encounter the tutorial at the start of the story, you feel like you're going to need to manage some part of the game, making it sound much more complex. But honestly everything is written into the story with no micromanaging on your part. [h2][u]The Writing & Translation[/u][/h2] This novel on the whole is pretty well done and despite at times odd sentence structure and grammatical errors I could understand the story and enjoy it. One example - when the teacher takes attendance and calls your name she says “Mizu, Ren, Nanami, come here”. The [i]come here[/i] part is what is odd. She is not calling you to come see her, just to speak up to say you're in attendance. There are spelling mistakes as well. Sometimes names will be spelt wrong from one frame to another. The principal's name is Director/Principle Asher but sometimes they will call him Director/Principle Archaer by mistake, amongst other names and places being wrong. [h2][u]The Visuals & Audio[/u][/h2] The artwork and music in this game is outstanding. The first thing, besides the art, that drew me in was the music playing on the main menu. A score of instrumental tracks. Some are upbeat and magical, others more ethereal. The novel is not voiced but some ambient sounds are scattered throughout like a door opening, a knock on a door or rain falling. [i]Some of the many, many screencaps I took…[/i] https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3438635639 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3438619963 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3438758138 The main sprites are all beautifully illustrated, painted with what looks like watercolors in vibrant hues in contrast to the more washed out backgrounds (when the sprites are the main focus). Otherwise the backgrounds on their own when highlighted are well drawn, vibrantly painted and have lighting effects added in with filters. The faces are also nicely animated. [h2][u]Overall Experience[/u][/h2] My time overall with this game was honestly just a fun time. I really love the artwork and the premise of the story in general. The romances and friendships are all set into the story in this game. You will romance or befriend all four friends in one playthrough. There is no nudity or graphic scenes and the kisses shown are wholesome. I would recommend saving at every choice point [i]before[/i] making your choice. There are lots of save slots so no need to worry about running out. Also there are two endings, a good and bad. If you save your choices it is easy to know when to make this decision and reload the game to see both endings. I will say as the main character your personality for the most part is already established. So you do not have any real character development in this game. The main character is very sweet, kind, interested in learning and cares a lot about the friends she makes. So there are a lot of heartfelt moments between the characters. 💖 * I got all the achievements in one playthrough plus reloading one choice point to get the second ending. The game page says 12-15 hours and I will admit I am a fast reader so the game took me about 6 hours. [hr][/hr] [i]This game was purchased by me for my personal library. On occasion I share my experiences with the groups I write for to help bring attention to games I’ve personally purchased and wish to give more exposure too.

This game sticks to the classic visual novel style, with great visuals that enhance the experience. But what really kept me hooked was the story , it’s the biggest factor for me in this type of game. A strong narrative is what decides whether I keep playing or not, and this one absolutely delivers. The puzzles aren’t too difficult, but they add an interesting twist to the VN without feeling out of place. Overall, great job on making a story that keeps me hooked. It has its flaw tho , the English may have some misspelled but over all I can still enjoy it. Both Thai and Eng translate for me after reading both I feel it's not changed the tone and feel that much. As I heard the developer is just a solo-dev without knowledge of Programming so kudos to that you did real well on your first game with a tight budget and all against all odds you still ship it Congrat! เกมภาพสวย เนื้อเรื่องดีมี Puzzle ให้เลนประปรายเหนือกว่าสิ่งอื่นใดคือชอบเนื้อเรื่อง อ่านแล้วรู้สึกอยากอ่านต่อเรื่อยๆ ราคาไม่แรง เกมอาจจะมีบางส่วนที่เป็น Con คือการสะกดคำในภาษาอังกฤษอยู่บ้าง แต่โดยรวมแล้วอื่นๆทำได้ดีเลย ที่สำคัญที่ได้ยินมา Dev เกมนี้เป็น solo-dev ด้วยเริ่มทำ VN จาก 0 จริงๆ
Tale of REN es una novela visual que me sumergió en la historia de Mizu Ren Nanami, una joven enviada al mundo de Rostania para recolectar el "Agua del Corazón", esencial para salvar su mundo natal. A lo largo de unas 12 a 14 horas de juego, cada decisión que tomé influyó en el desarrollo de la trama, llevándome por múltiples caminos narrativos y finales. Lo que más destaco es la profundidad de los personajes: desde la reservada Amory hasta la ambiciosa Hana, cada uno tiene su propia historia y personalidad que se despliega conforme avanzas. Las ilustraciones al estilo cómic y las más de 100 escenas de fondo enriquecen la atmósfera, haciendo que cada escena se sienta única. Además, el sistema de diario personal me permitió tomar notas y reflexionar sobre mis elecciones, añadiendo una capa de inmersión adicional. Aunque el juego está en inglés y tailandés, la traducción al inglés es bastante clara, lo que facilita la comprensión de la historia. Es una experiencia recomendada para quienes disfrutan de relatos profundos con personajes bien desarrollados y decisiones significativas. Valoración: Jugabilidad ★★★★☆ Gráficos ★★★★☆ Dificultad ★★★☆☆ Innovación ★★★★☆ Ambientación ★★★☆☆ PS: Muchas gracias al desarrollador por proporcionarnos la clave para esta reseña.

The novel has it's flaws, especially in the English translation there are errors. Personally I was not the biggest fan of the endings (I loaded saves to get all endings), but I will not go into spoilers here. This novel still absolutely deserves a positive review, there is a lot of potential from the Dev and I am looking forward to new releases from them. The characters had charm, tho the way the game is build up, I feel like "new" characters have less chances to win the readers heart, since they previously went very deep with another, likely already giving their heart away... It would be better to have the character story lines run parralel to each other and not one after another. Once again I am looking forward to new releases from this developer. ^^
[ รีวิวนี้มาจากการเล่นลงกับช่วง Playtesting โดยที่ผมได้เล่นสองบทแรก โดยเกมตัวเต็มจะมีการปรับปรุงด้านเทคนิค ซึ่งจะรีวิวอีกรอบเพิ่มเติมเมื่อเล่นเกมจนจบ แต่โดยรวมคือไปทางชอบครับ ] Tale of REN หนึ่งในเกม Visual Novel ที่มาพร้อมกับพล็อตเรื่องที่เราไม่ได้เห็นนักในเกมวิชวลโนเวลจากไทย กับสไตล์งานภาพที่มีสเน่ห์และเอกลักษณ์ของตัวเอง คือเอาเป็นว่าผมไม่ค่อยเห็นลายเส้นแบบนี้จากเกม VN ไทยเท่าไหร่นัก (จริง ๆ แม้แต่ต่างประเทศก็ด้วย) พร้อมเรื่องราวเปิดตัวที่น่าสนใจ น่าติดตาม และชวนอยากรู้ว่าเรื่องราวทั้งฝั่งของสองโลก และตัวละครทั้งหมดในเกม ทำให้เห็นว่านักพัฒนาใส่ใจเรื่องราว บท และโลกแค่ไหน เรื่องย่อที่ทีมพัฒนาเขียนในหน้า Steam คือส่วนหนึ่งของตัวเกมเท่านั้น ในฐานะที่ผมหลงไหลงานประเภท Fictional World (โลกที่ถูกสร้างขึ้นมาเองเพื่อใช้กับสื่อ ๆ ใดโดยเฉพาะ) ก็ต้องบอกว่าเกมนี้ไม่ได้อัด ข้อมูลให้คนเล่นเยอะจนเกินไป แต่ค่อย ๆ หยอดมาให้เรื่อย ๆ ให้ผู้เล่นรู้สึกดื่มด่ำ และชวนตั้งคำถาม เพราะฉะนั้นไม่ต้องกลัวครับว่าเรื่องราวมันจะดูฟุ้งจนเข้าใจได้ยาก เพราะมันเป็นอะไรที่สามัญสำนึกเราเข้าใจได้พอสมควรครับ ผมไม่ขอลงลึกเนื้อเรื่องไรมาก เพราะมันคือส่วนชูโรงของเกมแนวนี้ แต่เอาเป็นว่าคุณจะไม่ผิดหวังกับสองบทแรกของเกมนี้อย่างแน่นอน และถ้าผมมีเวลาเพิ่มเติม ผมจะเคลียร์เกมนี้ให้จบสักวัน
ความประทับใจแรกที่มีต่อเกมนี้ 1. ภาพสวย ตัวละครน่ารักดูดีมาก ๆ ภาพประกอบในเกมออกมาดูดีเลย 2. เพลงประกอบในเกมน่าฟังที่สุด 3. เนื้อเรื่องน่ารัก ทำให้เรารู้สึกเอ็นดูนานามิ พร้อมเอาใจช่วยเธอทำภารกิจในโรงเรียนนี้ เอเนจี้วัยเรียนที่มันล้นหลามที่สุด 4. มีภาษาไทย !! อ่านไม่ยาก โดยรวม ออกมาดูดีมาก ๆ เพลินกว่าที่คิดค่ะ หากเล่นจบแล้วจะมารีวิวเพิ่มเติมต่อค่ะ
《tale of ren》是一款魔幻校园背景的恋爱视觉小说,讲述女主角娜娜米接到任务到其他星球收集心灵之水拯救世界的故事。 游戏的剧情很长,因为不是英文母语者,所以游玩的速度会慢很多,但凭借翻译器和我浅显的英文水平,阅读的过程还是很流畅易懂的。校园的日常剧情描写得很真实,平淡但不失风趣,一共有四位可攻略对象,两男两女,几个角色性格不同,但对主角都很好,攻略系统有爱情值和友情值,根据不同的选项会有不同数值的提升,部分选项还可以增加学分,这种小细节很有趣。 游戏是第三人称叙述的,画风很美,是清透的二次元动漫画风,每张都很美丽,音乐也非常好听,能够让人放松下来。娜娜米通过帮助别人,获得心灵水,收集情感。随身带着一个可以指导的眼镜这种设定既科幻又魔幻。作为一个“外星人”娜娜米在各个方面都非常优秀,因此也会遭受到其他角色的嫉妒,认为娜娜米在作弊,娜娜米对那个女角色也依然是宽容充满理解的。四个可攻略对象的人物塑造也十分立体,他们不是单一片面的角色,每个人都有属于自己青春的烦恼和问题。娜娜米走进他们的生活,让他们变得更好。老师也是细心温柔,关心学生的好老师。校园生活也非常丰富多彩,也有一些冒险和各种各样的课程。每个角色的眼睛像宝石一样很好看。 整个游戏是一个的大致走向是非常温馨温柔的日常,十分充满青春气息,也很治愈人心,打完感觉心情舒畅,得到了治愈一样。游戏的成就很多,很有情绪价值。我很喜欢这个故事。 [quote] 硬核游戏,为硬核而生。(๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧※ [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45145676/]点击这里关注硬核游戏~[/url] 如果喜欢这个评测,请点个赞让更多人看见 [/quote]
ภาพสวย ระบบเข้าใจง่ายดีครับ เพลงก็เข้ากับตีมเกมได้ดี ตัวละครจดจำได้ง่ายดี แต่เล่นยังไม่จบนะ ไว้จะมาเล่นต่อ เพราะเริ่มสนุกละ
ความประทับใจที่เด่นชัดเกี่ยวกับเกมนี้คือ เนื้อเรื่องน่าติดตามและลึกซึ้ง เนื้อเรื่องของ Tale of REN มีการวางปมและพัฒนาความสัมพันธ์ของตัวละครอย่างมีชั้นเชิง มีธีมที่พูดถึง "หัวใจของมนุษย์" อย่างจริงจัง ทั้งเรื่องความเจ็บปวด ความสูญเสีย ความรัก และการให้อภัย ตอนจบมีหลายแบบ (Multiple Endings) ทำให้รู้สึกว่า “ตัวเลือก” ของเรามีน้ำหนักจริง ตัวละครมีมิติ น่าจดจำ ตัวละครหลักทั้ง เรน และคนที่เธอได้พบในเมือง Rostania ต่างก็มีภูมิหลังและนิสัยเฉพาะตัว ทำให้ผูกพันกับผู้เล่นได้ดี มีเสน่ห์แบบอนิเมะ แต่ไม่รู้สึกซ้ำซาก งานภาพออกมาดีเกินคาด ภาพประกอบมีเอกลักษณ์ สีสันสบายตา โดยรวมเกมทั้งหมดนี้สัมผัสได้ถึง “หัวใจของผู้พัฒนาที่ตั้งใจสร้างอย่างปราณีต” (แม้จะมีบางส่วนเกี่ยวกับประโยคข้อความตัวอักษรผิดเพี้ยนไปบ้างแต่ก็ไม่ได้ทำให้อ่านไม่ออกเสียเท่าไหร่) เกมมีรายละเอียดเล็กน้อยที่ใส่ใจมาก เช่น Journal, แกลเลอรี, บทพูดที่เรียบเรียงดี เห็นได้ชัดว่าเป็นผลงานที่ตั้งใจสร้าง ไม่ใช่เกมที่ทำตามสูตรเฉย ๆ แนะนำให้ลองเล่นเลยครับ ถือว่าเป็นเกมดีที่ต้องลองเกมหนึ่งเลยครับ
