This is a really beautifully drawn and sung game. All of the voice talent does really well with the music and there are some truly striking musical moments that give me chills.

I enjoyed the plot and the modern interpretations of the gods a lot, Aphrodite in particular stood out to me, I won't spoil it but WOW that made me emotional. The story is very well-written the choices you're given are compelling and sometimes very tough.

The one complaint I have and for me it's pretty significant, is the lyrical writing. The style of lyricism isn't exactly my thing, there were some lines that made me cringe and that often pulled me out of the story. There were also some word choices that felt very forced or jammed in which was distracting to me. Perhaps I'm too picky about that kind of thing, but it stuck out to me and impacted my experience playing, but it won't be that way for everyone.

It's definitely worth a play and maybe one day I'll play it through again but for now it's definitely shelved.
