This sequel was worth the wait!
First off, beautiful cover art! This gagged me when I first saw it. The way the art looks crisp and clean is just *chef's kiss* amazing. Thank you, Moroo for making this!
Second, the story is beautifully done and everything pieces together perfectly like a puzzle, like the motives, the plot twist, everything. I hope to learn more about Beaford and Alicia's backstory in the next episodes, I've actually kept a list of theories of what I believe is gonna happen or what has happened in the past (I'm not that confident about them lmao) And the gameplay was kinda easy enough for me to get through the first time. I think I had to go to the walkthrough to find the answer to the temperature in one of the rooms.
Third, Alicia and Beaford are amazing as always! One of my favorite moments from this game was when Beaford was like "Oh, isn't that because- ...Actually, I'll leave that to you to figure out." like he knew what Alicia is but wanted her to figure out for herself. And I love the new cast of characters too (might've fallen for Caspian right off the bat. We're not talking about that though-). I was convinced that Itou was bad at first but now... I'm okay with him now but skeptical. Everyone else was amazing.
Fourth, the endings was shocking to watch the first time. I'm gonna go vague in case there's people who haven't played it. My favorite part of it was when Alicia caught the actress when she fell. I'm actually went from my desk where the game was all the way to the other side of my room, wishing that was me (I love Alicia, leave me be) Also, I never knew that the universe of Symbiosis and Silver Thread was connected in some way, that's a awesome twist.
Thank you so so SO much for taking your time to make this game! I wish you good luck with the next episode!
