As someone who went into this game with no expectations, The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood really surprised me. Especially compared to other visual novel-ish games.
The larger weight your choices have makes the game super replayable, the deck building is fun and filled with tons of variety, I love the cast, and it tries to explore themes in ways that feel fresh. It really stands out from its contemporaries.
I wish I could say there weren’t any caveats, but there definetly are some issues. Most of them stem from the last half or quarter of the game, where the plot takes a direction that’s… unique? It’s not totally out of nowhere, but it feels way less intresting than the more chill vibes of before. The characters you meet during this part are also not nearly explored enough for how intresting they could potentially be, and I wish they got fleshed out more.
Even considering that, I still wholeheartedly recommend you play this hidden gem. One that I’ll 100% replay in the future.
