Werewolf: The Apocalypse — Heart of the Forest

Вот насколько у игры красивейший визуал - настолько же она уныла. Графомания та еще. Но перед художниками снимаю шляпу.

The level of immersion they achieved without animation or voice acting is impressive and I loved how they handled the protagonist’s slow realization of her differences leading to her accepting her Garou side. enjoyed how they used local Polish folklore. A better executed story than Purgatory in my opinion, I felt more engaged in the characters and the story.

Начало хорошее, но потом как-то нереально уныло. Плюс нет сохранений - это прямо ♥♥♥♥♥♥

not a game just an interactive book

tbh i was shocked to find how boring flat and abrupt it all was with an art style like this i had high expectations but the art is the only good thing about it now a lot of the elements in this game could be replaced and it wouldn’t change a thing or leave any impact for a game about choices that heavily relies on different stats to block or forge paths esp relationship stats that are supposed to encourage you to form connections it feels incredibly unbelievable that the characters are this bland and one dimensional with no meaningful elaboration beyond a few tags they don’t feel lifelike at all just empty archetypes that exist purely as plot devices and when i don’t even care about any of these characters or frankly the main plot of the game the added political message just feels clumsy and makes you go “okayyy ig” what’s the point of the game? none of this is appealing and it’s extremely short kind of pretentious and weirdly schizo about something spiritual and supernatural it feels more like a pamphlet for some suburban cult with a bunch of zealous weirdos chanting about corn or in this case “protecting the forest” i feel cringe having finished this game and i would not recommend it

A fairly decent text/visual novel game set in VtM TTRPG setting. Can recommend if you're a fan of the genre.

Je pourrais essayer d'utiliser des mots pour décrire mon expérience mais ça serait l'enfermer dans quelque chose qui ne sera probablement pas ce que vous vivrez en jouant au jeu. Sachez ceci : c'est court, c'est intense et je suis convaincue qu'il faudrait le jouer au moins cinq fois pour en voir quelque chose qui s'approche de la totalité. J'aurais aimer me perdre dedans des heures et des heures de plus et j'aurai sans doute à rejouer au jeu pour pouvoir faire ça, pour espérer trouver des choses différentes et jouer des fins différentes, même si mes tripes me diront de continuer à faire les choix que j'ai déjà fait, sans doutes.

A great story, pity there was not an extra chapter or two. A great way to introduce you to the werewolf aspect of the classic world of darkness. Learn different things on multiple play throughs, would recommend.
