i wish that it was longer, but the shortness (since all of the events happen in the same day) makes sense, based on what happened right before the story starts. but i did really enjoy it! i liked having "aha!" moments when i realized what needed to be done next ;w;

(as someone who was raised in an extremely strict, very religious household, i do wonder if the religious themes and plot beats hit as hard for people who have no religious background. being told as a child to be afraid of satan/lucifer and living with that for decades makes even reading the name uncomfortable for me, which i think really adds to the overall experience of the game)

i loved the aesthetic and many aspects of the story. perhaps one playthrough isnt enough to get all of it (currently only missing 4 achievements, one of them being a 22 card deck), but i wish that abramar was.... more. more involved in the story, more connected to fortuna, etc. the declarations of love at the end felt a bit unearned to me. i felt, as a player, that i barely knew him, despite wanting to know more, but the political campaign took over so much of the story. i ended up choosing to play support to dahlia, so perhaps if i chose to run myself i would've seen more of abramar, so i will have to do that next time. maybe my rating will change!
