Хібащо вам ну дуже, дуже хочеться рандомного юрі. Текст з купою помилок, та й навіть без помилок героїні висловлюються і думають так, наче їм максимум по 12 років, як завжди романс нізвідки, а логіка вийшла у вікно. Навіть опис на сторінці гри аж кричить, як все погано, але я волів спробувати. Зрештою промотав частину тексту, бо там ще й чомусь майже глава про якусь книгу, яку ГГня читає, частина чотири і це ще гірший фанфікшен (нічого поганого про фанфіки, але я на жаль пам'ятаю часи, коли писали абсолютно всі, переважно у ранньому підлітковому віці і читати це було неможливо), ніж основна історія і нащо воно там ніхто не зна.
[h1]When you focus on someone's disability you'll overlook their abilities, beauty and uniqueness[/h1] Wheels of Innocence touched me emotionally with its heartfelt yuri story, even though there were a few technical issues like typos and sprite inconsistencies. Overall, the story delves into important themes of trauma, disability, bullying, and depression. [h3]Storyline[/h3] As I followed Reina, a high school senior dealing with past trauma, her growing bond with Mizuki, her volunteer assistant, unfolded against the backdrop of their shared challenges. The story wasn't just about their relationship; it delved deep into themes of love, healing, and facing inner struggles. What impressed me most was how the visual novel handled serious themes. It navigated the difficult terrain of trauma without becoming too heavy. Instead, it balanced the weighty experiences with a genuine portrayal of love, demonstrating how it can help in the healing process. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3136387740 Seeing a disabled main character in a romantic story was a nice change from the usual. It brought depth and authenticity to the story. As the story evolved, especially in the second part, it showed good progress in dealing with tough themes, focusing on empathy and understanding instead of just the dark stuff. Even though the storytelling was good, there were parts where the writing could be improved. Sometimes, the story lacked the strength and finesse to make the emotional moments more powerful. But, overall, it didn't take away from the heartfelt nature of the experience. [h3]Graphics & Sounds[/h3] The characters look charming. But, sometimes, there were small problems with the character pictures that took away a bit from the overall experience. Even with these tiny issues, the backgrounds and scenes were well-made. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3136387806 The sound in the game was okay. The background music matched the mood of each scene well, making important moments more emotional. However, having more variety in the soundtrack could have made the storytelling even better. The sound effects were just fine, but they could have also been more varied and refined. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3136387655 [h3]Final verdict[/h3] In short, Wheels of Innocence really touched me. It addressed important themes with sincerity and empathy, and having a disabled protagonist in a sweet love story made it stand out. Even with some small flaws, it's a touching and hopeful piece of storytelling that makes me excited for what the author will do next.

[h3]Колесо невин[spoiler]ов[/spoiler]ности[/h3] Довольно короткая и прямолинейная юри новелла с одним единственным рутом и маленьким количеством выборов, влияющих только на реплики. Сюжет строится на взаимоотношениях новенькой школьницы в инвалидной кресле-коляске с ее одноклассницей-волонтером, у каждой из которых имеется свое болезненное прошлое. [spoiler]Как некоторые заметили, чувствуется, что вн должна была быть больше, чтобы раскрыть и второстепенных персов, но получилось, как получилось, все-таки игра бесплатная, поэтому грех жаловаться.[/spoiler] Общая атмосфера весьма меланхолична и иногда разбавляется милыми и нежными моментами. Жалко только что, кроме спрайтов персонажей (стили которых, как мне кажется, немного разнятся), в новелле нет никаких артов на самых важных моментах, хотя все задники прорисованы красиво и не вызывают диссонанса с модельками персонажей. Интерфейс обычный, ничего сверх, как и музыкальное сопровождение, все в тему и к месту, но ничего запоминающегося. [b]Инфо для ЮРИстов:[/b] [table] [tr] [td]Уровень юри:[/td] [td]Средний[/td] [/tr] [/table] Очень нежные отношения двух девочек и несколько поцелуев гарантированы! [spoiler](Но опять же без артов с этим Т_Т)[/spoiler] https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3229800144 [b]Вывод:[/b] Пандусы должны быть везде! А всем маленьким девочкам необходимо предоставлять свои переносные в обязательном порядке и бесплатно (прям как эта вн)!
[i]Please don't mind my playtime, I've read this novel while being offline, so Steam didn't register it :)[/i] I won't be long — Wheel of Innocence is a heartwarming visual novel about two school girls falling in love. It's sweet, short and free; honestly, it's not perfect, but I've enjoyed reading it, so I don't really care, haha. If you're a fan of yuri novels, I suggest to try it out. And btw, it's playable on Steam Deck, so you can read it while travelling, like I did! Please note (TW): there are mentions of child abuse, suicide and depression. From what I remember, these parts didn't feel too heavy and were handled gracefully.

Короткая трогательная новелла о подростковой влюбленности, которая также поднимает темы ограниченных физических возможностей, абьюза, детских травм и их последствий. Легкий слог, единственная концовка, вне зависимости от выборов, быстрое получение всех достижений, приятный глазу внешний вид.
Cute
Masumiyet Çarkı ile , Reina adındaki engelli bir lise öğrencisinin hayatına baktığınız lezbiyen görsel bir romandır.
It has some grammatical mistakes and typos. Story has some dark topics, and the emotions and pain of the characters feels.. real. It doesn't feel like a piece of dark literature/art that always have dark themes and always trying to bring your emotions down. It feels like you are actually watching people having a bad time. It's feel mostly just like people living, but with bad past events still holding on. There are cute and happy moments, which makes all the negative emotions feel that much stronger. And the issues portrayed in here are things that are happening in our society, [spoiler]with ableism, homophobia and bullying.[/spoiler] And to have all of those together(as an actual person would have), instead of being focused on a single topic. I'd say it's a good representation of marginalized people. A nice short story with some feels, needs fixing in the text. 7/10 for me.
有聽說是兩位有不幸過去的少女互相救贖的故事,確定是happyend我才來玩的,而且還是免費,但不知道中間竟然這麼虐啊啊啊...... 兩人的過去都很好慘啊,[spoiler] Reina是過去遭遇車禍母親去世自己則變殘障人士,父親把錯怪在她每天對她辱罵毆打,之後被送進孤兒院也受到欺負,好在好心的養母收養她;Mizuki則是跟好朋友Yuna交往後對方太開心就去跟父母講,然後就好幾天沒來上學,然後就天天包繃帶,然後就自殺......為什麼啊...為什麼這個社會這麼殘酷啊啊啊...啊啊... [/spoiler],我人老了受不了這種刀子啊啊QQ,差點就玩不下去不過為了HAPPYEND還是拚了,兩人最後能在一起真是太好了,真的是太好了啊,這大概是我人生中最感慨的時刻,Reina和Mizuki妳們要幸福啊~ 我真的沒想到免費能玩到這種品質的作品,兩人的痛苦與思念、情感都刻骨銘心,讓人想要祈求這個社會別再欺負她們了。這部作品真的探討了很多社會的負面議題:殘障人士受到歧視、家庭暴力、性少數族群不被社會認同、言語霸凌,酸民的閒言閒語,其中最讓我感受深刻的是:真的不要隨便就叫人去死啊,那可是會造成嚴重的心理傷害的 這些問題在社會上依然存在,並且會永遠存在,有些人就是沒辦法停止欺負別人,會許只是想找樂子,又或許是被逼瘋的,總之我們只能盡量去減少這些會給人痛苦的傷害,我希望這部作品能為此帶來些許力量。 雖然這部作品帶來很多負能量議題,但溫暖人心的正能量也是有的,畢竟也有不少人很好的角色,像是Reina養母、Himiko和Yoshima老師、Mizuki的妹妹Mana和母親(話說作者給她個立繪好嗎)、還有圖書館管理員、[spoiler] 甚至連Shiko的本性也不算壞[/spoiler],這些角色也給這陰暗瘋狂的社會帶來光明與溫暖,讓人覺得這狗屎社會還是有希望的。 最後總結真的很值得玩,雖然還是有一點缺點,例如沒cg(不過免費的嘛)、對話框有幾次標錯名字、還有讓我心如刀割,不過都是瑕不掩瑜...啊還有一點,中間小說的內容不給結局也太過份了吧XD Reina和Mizuki,她們兩人絕對不是怪物,只是受了傷的少女,不過已經沒問題了,兩人今後會一起度過難過,祝福她們~
