Fatehaven

Thumbs up

One of the most surprising and satisfying endings I've read in a long time. I adore this author! If you like this game, do yourself a favour and buy his Samurai of Hyuga series. It's even better! The only negative I have to say about his games is that the excerpts don't do them justice. I'd have never guessed from the lame anime pictures and generic descriptions that I'd get a cynical, self-deprecating narrator, who sprinkles in plenty of dark humor. The author makes me laugh. He makes me think. And he actually gets me to care about his characters. Buy this!

[strike] 离线游戏，yyds ![/strike] 预警：该游戏是一款沙雕游戏----指用看起来很傻很好玩的剧情把像我一样的沙雕吸引进来杀掉的游戏。[spoiler]但是好歹在这个Fatehaven版本里的永远的七日之都还有一个HE··· ···（[strike]虽然感觉就这么BE了可能更好一点（？）[/strike])所以，就这样吧，唉，意难平。[/spoiler] 描写还是很轻松的，场面很细致，打斗场景好评。有的场景转换真的写得太妙了太妙了我直接在脑子里拍电影。用词比较日常，基本没有阅读障碍（高中英语水平就够用）。 人物特性也比较明显。剧情··· ···沙雕剧情吧，就我上面说的这种沙雕游戏的沙雕剧情。大多数时候都很有趣，结尾的反转直接给我从萌王史莱姆拉到魔法少女小圆，好家伙。给我整破防了，直接神志不清。 人物个人线（爱情支线）的话基本要在后期才会展开。感觉真的有点少啊啊啊啊我好想看甜甜的恋爱（？）啊 ···还是推荐的吧，哈哈。

nice story interesting twist

FUN 【6/10】

Not for everyone, but it was ok. A bit edgy as far as choose your own adventure experiences go, with its appeal to a teenage demographic. However its quirkiness is sort of made up for its length of about 4 hours. Would have liked some more insight into how the world works, however you're eventually fed enough information to figure some things out. There are also other things like the 'twist' at the end which some people might dislike as well. Personally I was a bit confused by the skill checks and the little amount of choice I had at some stages, so there is some level of thinking required...

I’ve never wanted to be able to give a neutral review more than I do now. "Fatehaven" is front and center what I’d consider a mediocre game. The humor, although sometimes amusing, is very hit-and-miss. And as soon as you get a bit further into the story, the choices come around less and less often. Apart from the nature of my magic, my first and second playthroughs played out very similarly for the vast majority of the time. Also, how the story is told disagrees with me. You’re constantly told what you think and feel about things, even though that’s not at all the impression you, as the reader, may have of those same things. For example, you can be told you like or respect someone, but it’s a thief you dislike wholeheartedly. In short, you’re told a story, and you’re told what you should think, which is not how a choose your own adventure should go. The choices, opinions, and outcomes are taken out of your hands too often. Finally, sometimes it’s hard to differentiate between your character’s thoughts and words. At those times, there are no quotation marks, and it’s like the text describes what you’re thinking, and then the game behaves as if you said some of it even though you didn’t, making it confusing when someone responds to those unsaid words. If I had known beforehand what I’d be getting, I’m not sure I’d have bought the game. Make of that what you will, and decide accordingly. (5/10)
