Mobilezoid 11/18/21 7:26:31 PM #29:	There was definitely a bigger central plot to HotW, but I liked the simplicity of the gold rush more. It wasnt a bad VN, it just wasn't the best one ever like HB was! Kenri posted... 58- Winter Voices Never heard of this one, write-up please? Winter Voices is a super unique game and it was quite the experience, but it was so janky I'm not sure I'd recommend it to anyone. It's basically an isometric RPG, only you play as a mentally fragile young woman with no combat ability and all the enemies are in her head. You can't damage enemies, the battles are all about surviving X number of turns, or getting across the map, or are kind of puzzles about pushing personifications of doubt onto map squares that destroy them. The story follows the woman as she leaves her isolated town after the death of her father, and she struggles against her doubts and fears and traumas every step of the way. It was a unique journey. The writing was sometimes pretentious, but I enjoyed it. The downsides are a low budget, frequent glitches, and often janky controls. I also can't vouch for the balance. There's an impressive FFX-style sphere grid of abilities that would really let you approach the battles a lot of different ways, but I can easily imagine choosing a bad combo of skills that would eventually make it impossible to win. I managed to beat Winter Voices but it was always a struggle. A worthwhile struggle, in my opinion, but I have odd tastes sometimes! --- R.O.B.A.Z.O.I.D (On mobile) <cite>Mobilezoid posted [p:960127165] in Robazoid's...
