Confessions

Confessions

I really like the idea of this game, confess your deepest, darkest, or just plain secrets. I think for other peopls sake though, I saw the trigger warning in the games description. But I think it would be ideal to present that in the menu screen too. Also I think that It would be a cool add-on would be to change the font of the text, for an example, in the preview, there is an eerie font. But in the app, its an Ariel font.

Love the game, would recommend if you want to get something off your chest, our you’re just interested in what other people are doing. Just know, that If you are a bit sensative, do not buy. It 100% will make you reconsider buying. But I overall give this a 9/10.

DISCLAIMER: This is a first impressions review, and NOT a full review

Confessions is a game developed and published by Peace & Love Games

If you’re thinking this is a game, it isn’t

What it is is a software that is trying to copy what made Kind Words (lo fi chill beats to write to) so great and a once in a lifetime experience and change it into this platform where you can literally post your “confessions” which can be anything from harmless banter to some seriously fcked up sht

It tries to be an “interactive art installation”, but in my opinion, it’s just allowing anyone who even purchases this to write the most sadistic, twisted thoughts and views you could imagine

This game has so many layers to it… the plot twists… the stakes riding on your decisions! I am in awe. I went through so many ““bad”” endings to get to the ‘true’ good ending but having to work for that ending made it so much more satisfying. Not to mention that the ““bad”” endings still had brilliant content, and I enjoyed playing each time as there are so many different decisions to make. And so many people to woo…. heart eyes

Feminist brain: This is an excellent use of the visual novel format with amazingly complex worldbuilding, distinctive characters who are easy to love (or hate, as the case may be), and while the dream-dropping doesn’t seem to be integrated into the game so far it’s an interesting concept I’d like to see. All in all, I’m very much looking forward to the finished product.

Detailed review:

This is based on my own opinions.

I will try not talk about the events and details of the story in my review. I think the less you know about it before you start, the more enjoyable it’ll be!

Context:

1. Value for money

2. Gameplay

3. Story

4. Graphics and Art

5. Nice-to-haves

6. Negatives

7. Recommendation to players (+18)

8. Summary

1. Value for money

For the price I payed, I have definitely got my money worth from this game. I have 40+ hours and enjoyed most of the game. I personally think anything below $2 that provides 40+ hours of fun is worth it, for sure!

The game was nostalgic for me. The sounds of the computer, keyboard, floppy disk are sensational and the fact that the game doesn’t have music gives you a very good immersion. The story holds your attention and you want to know all the endings. I loved this game, waiting for the second one already! :D

Let me preface this by saying I recommend this to others in two separate categories: For people looking for horse games that aren’t aimed at 12 year old girls, endless clicking crappy browser games with horse “art” that is just the Coggins test horse colored in, or “an RPG that incidentally has horse stuff”, this is worth the price. For regular gamers, wait for a sale.

The graphics are better than most horse games out there, not RDR2 quality, but they’re realistic, the horse moves in a normal way (no odd gaits, no joints bending inappropriately). All the jockey options are rather unattractive, but then, I really don’t care what my jockey self looks like, and honestly it probably matches me well enough irl. I think that it would be nice if we could choose the color of each part of our silks, not just “here are some combinations we have approved, pick one”. I think that’s a bit short sighted, and hope they open that up eventually.

I wanted to wait until I’d played for a while before I reviewed, because I want to be fair since I love this game so much, and I feel like some people who came from mobile (like I did) are giving this game worse reviews than it deserves, but also people who never played the mobile version don’t understand our criticisms and why some of us are finding such a seemingly great game to be so lackluster. So now that I’ve played 20+ hours, I feel confident enough in my experience with this game to objectively as possible give some CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM FOR THE DEVS (so I really hope they read this review). I would list the many pros and cons to getting this game as well, but there aren’t enough characters for me to add them. Scroll to the bottom for a TL;DR.
