Not even 15 seconds in and I get asked whether or not I would like to enable 18+ content.. 10/10??
You are going to see a lot of joke reviews giving this a thumbs up and making it look like a visual novel that is worth your time. It is free, but it is only an hr long visual novel, probably even shorter if you read faster. It sets up a story that finishes quick with no actual goal to the end. The story, the characters, none of it matters since they just toss everything and end it. There is a 18+ love scene (by text) in this game and for some reason this is the reason to thumb it up for most the reviewers here. Bottom line, the story is interesting at first (an alien ring is found by a girl) til you realized it is rushed only to make an end, it is something they could have ran with and made a full visual novel with high praises. This just seems to be a quick attempt to get noticed and throw out a Ren'py visual novel (basically RPG maker for visual novels) that took little effort. Friends don't waste your time on this one, unless you want two easy achievements. I can appreciate effort but this had very little unfortunately.

The moral of the story is to disregard authority and jump headlong into things you know nothing about. Kingship and lesbianism await you. In almost every way, this is a lot of nothing. But it's free nothing that gets you 2 achievements in 3 to 30 minutes, and that's just good value. Also there are boobs I guess.
Written in the Sky is both free and extremely short, meaning that you should just go and read it yourself, because in the amount of time it takes to read a few reviews you'll probably already be done with the games. Now as for my take on it the game, it's not very good. My biggest problem with the game, that preteen looking girl you see in all the screenshots? She's actually supposed to be a high school student. She both looks and acts like she's in elementary school, but for some reason we're supposed to just accept that she's not. It's almost as if they had the character drawn up from another game and just threw her into this one. My second biggest problem with the game is the story. Azure, our selfish protagonist decides to tail someone suspicious after she sneaks out of the house due to getting grounded for skipping school. They end up at a warehouse and once the suspicious person leaves, Azure looks around the warehouse and finds a ring. Now despite the ring being too big for her she decides to play bride and try it on anyway only for the ring to change size and get stuck on her finger. She runs home after this and then goes to school like normal, but she ends being tailed by the suspicious person. After school this person confronts her and it turns out that she's actually cute alien princess named Sienna. During their conversation our dim-witted protagonist misunderstands what Sienna was saying and runs home. Once she gets home she finds Sienna has swapped her father's brain with a goldfish so that they can talk alone. Sienna explains that the ring Azure put on is a proposal to her and the key to saving the Martians from a civil war. Azure says she needs some time to think so she goes through a normal day of her life, but gets in trouble at school for not paying attention, since she's thinking about the space war Sienna just told her about, and when she returns home she asks Sienna to marry her since she wants to escape her life, there's then a sex scene if you have the 18+ version on. Azure and Sienna leave for Mars without telling anyone, which includes Azure's father who's brain was swapped back to his body as they were boarding Sienna's ship. There Azure who has shown zero redeeming qualities throughout the entire course of the game ends up becoming a good king for Mars. Now while there's huge holes in the plot that I could criticize I think the easiest thing to attack here is just the general outcome. Azure decides to just leave home with a word to anyone, simply because she doesn't like the fact that she keeps getting in trouble. Since I feel like this is deserving of more detail I'll give it. Azure's mother was murdered by a criminal because her father is a detective. Ever since he has been very hard on Azure and, despite her protests, forced her to learn various detective skills. Azure then decides to just leave him without a word to go and live on another planet because she doesn't like that he was often angry with her and doesn't think he'll miss her. Not only did Sienna mindswap him with a goldfish for a full day, Azure leaves him without so much as a goodbye. I'm sorry, but Azure's father was the only person in this game that seemed like a good person and Azure is a spoiled brat that just ran away from her problems.
Azure is your typical teenage girl, who enjoys taking naps between classes and occasionally snooping around. Although lazy, she is in fact, too smart for her own good. But who can blame her? Her father being a professional detective, taught Azure all the basic tricks since she was just a child, and despite the fact her mini-detective-kit days are long gone, Azure is still incredibly curious about her surroundings. Such eagerness got her into troubles again, when promptly leaving the classroom in a dash as soon as the bell rang! Of course the teacher didn’t appreciate her rush, so her father was once again contacted by the school. It wasn’t the first time, and usually meant a punishment for when she got home. Not a physical one, of course, but being sent to her room without nothing do to wasn’t her ideal of fun. She made up her mind that night, and went off to a little adventure escaping through the wind. The night was quiet, and the city lights were as bright as her senses while exploring every bit of the neighborhood, who changed completely at night, and at some moment, Azure lost herself. She couldn’t really tell where she was, but she went on anyways. The path lingered until the young girl reached a strange warehouse, and almost like attracted to such place, she went further, changing her life forever! So it’s starts, the incredible adventure of Azure, a teenage girl who is caught in a very serious and complicated problem... Interstellar wars are happening between Mars and Mercury, and somehow a strange ring seems to be connected to all of this. Azure didn’t resist on feeling the ring on her finger, and immediately she knew something was up… With a loneliness, past, and emotionally detached from everything, could Azure find someone to love and turn her uninteresting life around? [b]Written in the Sky[/b] is a one-hour Yuri Kinect Visual Novel developed by [i]Unwonted Studios[/i], who other popular releases consist of [b]No One But You[/b], [b]Catch Canvas[/b], [b]Wander No More[/b] and others. Published under the popular [i]Sekai Project[/i] group, this short but also quite interesting title is 100% Free to Play since its release, late 2015. Although Steam has certainly its share amount of free games, it’s our duty to spread the message about good Visual Novels, especially if they are free! The story is most certainly a positive surprise for those who decided to burn an hour of their time, and immediately realizes it were going to be a fantastic hour, because not only is the plot solid, well written and worthy of any Premium Visual Novel, as the whole direction is well portrayed, leaving the player with a terrific amusement feeling. The main character is cute and quite charming, plus its connection with the events is just adorable. Storytelling is captivating and joins several humoristic moments with slightly serious ones, mixed with a tremendous fantasy setting. It’s hard not to enjoy it since it’s a short adventure, therefore even if one takes it lightly, there are a bunch of giggles waiting! I won’t go deep into the main story since it’s the main reason why this small title is good for, and would just ruin the entire experience! Being a Kinect Visual Novel, means there are no choices, or at least no choices that become relative to the end of this adventure. Perfect to relax and let yourself go as the story unfold in front of your eyes, with an interesting color-palette choice, where pink seems to be predominant. Azure’s hair colour, and overall in-game menus are both pink, probably to match her clothes? Who knows, but If you’re like me and you think a little bit of pink suits well in everywhere, you shouldn’t really be bothered at all. Characters are good looking and were created having traditional anime designs in mind, offering simple but professional renders with light and shadow effects. Although there aren’t many physical poses, facial expressions do change based on the plot quite frequently.Cutscenes are available displaying specific hand-drawn background events, with glorious high quality surroundings! Overall backgrounds are super simple, but are carefully designed to perpetuate amazing light effects through windows or any given ambience. Objects on the backgrounds are generic and uninteresting to look at, and mostly serve as a filler option over anything else. It’s not terrible, or deal-breaker as can easily be smoothly overlooked. Adult content is available from the startup, when a warning asks players if adult mode should be enabled. This extra mode unlocks a couple of extra scenes where Azure and her newly found love share intimacy. As their first kiss bloom, cloths drop and their bodies touch each other guided by the stars gleaming through the window. It’s nudity towards the romantic side of erotism, rather than properly pornographic content. [b]Written in the Sky[/b] is not your typical Yuri Visual Novel, instead it’s a much more personal experience connected to the plot, and barely exploited. The soundtrack is simplistic, but still present, to create a much funnier adventure. Piano tracks and simple Japanese smooth pop elements set the line for the predominant sounds, very appropriate for this genre. Thrilling moments have dedicated atmospheric sounds to go with, as well any other major appropriated situation, and that’s always a plus. Despite a less than one hour adventure, it’s up spirit and cute storyline brings enjoyment, particularly when a Free to Play game manages to deliver such well constructed adventure. A recommended Visual Novel for anyone who is looking to get into this genre, or just appreciates a good fantasy story with good humour in it.
Truthfully, all I did was going into settings to scale auto-text speed and lowering the music volume. Pressing Start New Game, a few starting scenes, clicked on Auto-text scroll which didn't seem to respond for me, pressing the Skip button once, in a flash within a minute, saw two achievement popup and 'The End.' Perfect game, 2 achievements and its free. No reason and position to complain or to say No.
Okie… the advice of a friend go to setting turn skip text on. Go back to game. Click Skip and Wow... Game 100% within 1 minute. ♥♥♥♥. I cannot even write review for this yet might as well play this short visual novel about an anti-social girl though accident became king of Mars that needs to marry the Martian Queen. It’s actually quite short and enjoyable 15 minutes read. I chuckled at about 4-5 different times since the scripting is quite funny at times. Graphics is quite simple but nicely drawn and you do get about 2 minutes of girl to girl mating ritual near the end of the story. (Damn the main character is from middle school!) Music is decent but repetitive. Since the story is 15 minutes long and it was all over before I got bored of the music. Achievement hunter just grab this free game, install, change setting and 1 minute later you can add another 100% completion game to your belt. 7/10 I enjoy it enough while it lasted. Lack of content did make the story development feels a bit rushed and sudden, there are some typo in the lines but still a free enjoyable VN.
It's a nice little free-to-play kinetic novel (unlike a visual novel, which has choices/branching paths) but very short. Feels more like a demo, a smaller part of something bigger.--especially considering where the story seems to leave us at a rather critical point by the end; just a bit of a cliffhanger. I would like to see the characters and plot more fleshed out in a full-length game. It's a cute premise with no added fluff, it gets straight to the point quickly without much added character or story development. I can appreciate the tight storytelling in that regard, though I wish for more. I really liked the main protag Azure, and would love to see her use those "detective" skills mentioned in the game. I'm hoping if there is a sequel it will focus even more on the action/adventure portion. There was a good chemistry between the two female leads, and the culture shock of communicating with an alien leads to some pretty humorous dialogue. There is a single love scene, and I felt like it was very tastefully done in terms of nudity and description of the act itself. I also enjoyed the fact you could turn off this scene at the very beginning if you wish to, without losing anything in the story overall.
I actually have no idea how I have this game in my library and also how I have it perfect with all achievements unlocked. It also says that I've played 0.1 hrs even though I have never played or even installed this game. It just showed up one day. Other reviews say that they are experiencing the same phenomenon so I'm glad I'm not the only one. Stop hacking my ♥♥♥♥/10
