The House in Fata Morgana: A Requiem for Innocence is a great followup (but chronological prequel) to the acclaimed VN that captivated me earlier last year. This "game" does a great job setting the stage for the tragedy that befalls the characters in the original title, giving context to the depressing existence that Morgana once lived. Callbacks, familiar characters, and re-used quotes make their mark in Requiem, tying together the two in ways that make me really wish I'd played them back to back.

This VN is a bummer, but one that I'm ultimately glad I got to, as the main VN had captivated me in its manner of storytelling and despair in a way that few VN's succesfully do. This is a must-read for anybody who read the original and wants more out of this world. Even though it is a prequel, I would strongly recommend enjoying after the main title.
