Demonheart: The Cursed Trial

I really liked this game although there are a few flaws. The story really starts to take off in Chapter 2 (Chapter 1 itself was a bit lackluster and I already thought I wouldn´t like it). From then on I really wanted to know how the mystery of the demonhearts resolves. I think it is very well written and you get many choices to form your character. Most of those choices do not really influence the story though, but especially the choices regarding the possible love interests can change the endings. The side-characters and also Ran stay a bit superficial as characters, Kaiser is probably the most interesting one in the end. All characters grew on me. I found neither Kaiser nor Ran attractive as love interests, but they kind of fit the story and I appreciated them in the end. The art is quite simple compared to the first Demonhearts game and there are not many expressions or animations for the characters. The CGs are very good, although there are few of them. There is extremely few voice acting, only few lines are spoken in the game, it would have been nice if at least the most important conversations would have been fully voiced. Overall though I recommend the game, because the story is very intriguing and again on the level of the original Demonhearts.

The right amount of plot and love interest that makes sense for the situation. Watching this development team change and grow over the last games has been a treat in of itself. and to see the world having a connecting story line around Raze is a 10/10 choice for me that if i didnt play the previous games, I still would find interesting. The Seer PoV chapters really helped to make me feel like choices in previous games mattered even if they didnt import any of those choices. It kept immersion. The new love interests I think are the weakest part of the game and even then, I'd say they're B rated, still above average. Great job Devs, thank you for listening after the last entry!
