Yes, Your Grace 2: Snowfall

As a big fan of the first Yes, Your Grace title, I had high hopes for this second installment, and was not disappointed! Snowfall takes what the first game was and improves it! The story is compelling, the gameplay is improved from having to know which ressources to use when each week and suffer from it if you don't do it correctly; to a much more complex system open to more playstyles but also less punishing. The music as in the first game is beautiful, and the visuals while still very simple are also beautiful and expressive! The only thing I wasn't [i]entirely[/i] happy about is (story spoiler) [spoiler]Asalia's storyline. The open but seemingly happy ending for her if you let her run away with Maya in the first game, was slightly ruined by her bratty behavior and momentary (in my case) breakup of the two. But, as I they got back together again, I can't be too unhappy about it! [/spoiler] Similarly, [spoiler]I had hoped we found out that Lorsulia wasn't killed in the first game. The hunt for darkhaired women of a certain build with black cats in the first game, had me hoping she had actually managed to get away and the witchhunt was actually a hunt for her. But, that was just my own broken heart, hoping for a happy ending for the princess.[/spoiler] All in all I would not hesitate to recommend this game to anyone who enjoy games with compelling stories where actions matter and have consequences. Thank you for making this game.

Das Spiel ist ein absolut würdiger Nachfolger, der die Stärken des 1. Teils nochmal stärker hervorhebt. Anders als manche der Reviews sagen, halte ich die Story bzw. die Moral der Geschichte für wirklich gut. Hierbei möchte ich nicht auf ganz konkrete Aspekte eingehen, um Spoiler zu vermeiden. Aber es sei soviel gesagt: Wer den Vorgänger gut fand, wird auch dieses Teil mögen. Die Tatsache, dass man nicht alle Events ändern kann, halte ich nicht für eine Schwäche. Im Gegenteil, in dieser konkreten Umsetzung (& dies wird auch durch einige Storyelemente klar) soll dadurch gezeigt werden, dass das Leben im Allgemeinen (und das Führen eines Königreichs) eben nicht einfach genau so läuft, wie man das gerne hätte - selbst wenn man immer die "optimale" Entscheidung trifft.

Me encanta la saga, ojala siga muchos años

very good

I am trying to get everyone I know to play this AND the first one. Honestly both games are so charming and fun but this one adds so much the other one lacked gameplay and graphic wise while also continuing the story from YOUR CHOICES and introducing a new engaging plot. I have to play again.. and again. I have so many different choices I want to try to make. Please play both so I have more people to talk about it with. More in depth: Graphically they have added depth of field as well as more animations, despite it being pixels they are smooth and concise. There is so much life in these little squares. My FAVOURITE part of this game is the new between-week systems. You have more control over where your gold is going and how you're assigning agents. You don't waste money if you don't want to and your agents have dots of energy you can replenish rather than being one use. You choose if you prioritize having a lot of gold or a lot of exploration energy, the choice between resource gathering from precise help of the petitioners or resource gathering through exploration. If you don't have enough gold or energy you're able to reduce happiness for more as well which has been so useful.

This game was worth buying, incredibly fun to play with an invested friend or partner.
