Review | My final score is a combined score for episodes 1-8. I think the insanity that this game delivers really pays off (for the most part), but you should also erase any prior conceived notions you had about Umineko being a murder mystery before reading. When I first started reading I knew nothing about Umineko, and I found myself losing interest. Once I put myself in the mindset that this is a fantasy novel I started to enjoy it a lot more. The voice acting and music are the two major saving graces for this VN, otherwise I think a lot of the charm is lost. The characters are pretty good, I like seeing all of the different sides of them, bad and good. Story is pretty "alright," I think Ryukishi07 latched onto one theme too hard and became overly preachy in the end though. I'm gonna miss Erika. |
