raw goat kino swag. the catharsis was worth it. love is real. we're all gonna make it

i want to have sex with the maid

fantastic stories, beautiful music, just quite long for a visual novel and yeah it's nearly more a book than a video game. Stil I absolutely recommend it, as the nights I spend with these stories were very memorable

Anfangs habe ich ein bisschen gebraucht, um mich hooken zu lassen und ich musste mich etwas an den Artstyle gewöhnen (finde ihn aber mittlerweile super schön). Aber es hat sich gelohnt. Was für ein Ritt! Und absolut wundervoller Soundtrack.

The House In Fata Morgana is a visual novel focusing around a manor, named "The Rose Manor", it is a very Shakespearean-esque Light Novel, taking subtle ,but alot of references from the theatre plays- It is a light novel about insanity, and the passage of time- And you, the Master of this Manor, trying to recover the memories of who you once were, assisted by your Maid.

For what? To break a witch's curse, a witch's curse as old as generations- I went through this novel expecting a good story, because that's usually what a normal people does. A good story, nothing more- But holy fuck, has it shattered my expectations by the ROOF. (I can't give any names on who The Maid's name, or the Witch's, or the Master's name, because they're all spoilers, and this is a story that I don't want to tell to anyone, or spoil to anybody- It doesn't matter to me if people will never read it, it doesn't matter if they're not interested, in this game, but this is something I am truly passionate about.)
And if Shakespeare was still alive, I think this is something he'd genuienly enjoy. I find it quite frankly beautiful, and the aesthetics, the artstyle, the orchestration, the music... Everything is so excellent.

The writing is phenomenal, each doors are representing different "memories" of the manors, all set in different times. This is one of the most beautiful stories about tragedy, and insanity. The passage of time ; I can't go all in-depth here- But the story has such a multi-layered complexity that so much stories I have read, does not par up to this.

It baffles me how good it is, it is genius. It is honestly insane, and maybe I'm emotional, but the amount of tears I've shed for this VN is genuienly insane- Because, even though you know the tragedy is coming, as it is the purpose, it doesn't stop to baffle me. And the ending... God, the ending made it so worth it, after it all.

This has a very, very sweet spot in my heart. I am so glad I could experience this, even if other people may think of it as mediocre, it won't budge the experiences I felt with this Visual Novel. If the world disagrees with me, it doesn't matter. I love this, and I think practically nothing can help me change my thoughts about this.

One of the best stories written with some stunning music to accompany it.
