What players say

Players split sharply: many praise the art, music and bleak tragic story, while many criticise the second female lead's treatment, the true endings and an unfinished English translation.

Players who reach the end often praise the dark, historically grounded story set during the fall of Yangzhou, with the atmospheric art, music, voice acting and CG artwork highlighted. Many reviewers say the flashbacks and returning characters from The Hungry Lamb give them an emotional pull, and some find the bittersweet endings moving. Criticism centres on the main character's treatment of the second female lead, which many find unsympathetic, and on the true endings, which some call hopeless or hard to follow. Many players also report untranslated lines, repeated text and interface problems at launch, though several say recent patches have improved the English version. Some reviewers call the flashbacks and filler text excessive, and a few recommend playing The Hungry Lamb first.

    Some players
  • Excessive filler and flashbacks

    Some players
Who it suits
Suits readers of tragic romance and dark historical fiction who already enjoyed The Hungry Lamb, and fans who want to see its characters again.
Who should skip it
