At least 4 different paths Along the Edge, is a visual novel that brings you to the edge of something, but until, right until the end of the story you don't know what that edge really is. Some people have played the game through in as many as 8 different ways to try and explore that edge, and for a game that takes around 2.5 hours to complete, they clearly enjoyed the game a lot. Without giving it away, you have inherited a manor home after your grandmother passes away, your mother (estranged) however advises against accepting the property. You are not entirely on your own, an elderly couple still live in the manor lodge and are an invaluable support. At least one male suitor will undoubtedly complete the beautifully hand drawn Visual Novel with a romance angle. What is the Edge For Sophie (your character) in this visual novel, the edge is really happiness and sadness. She is a bit of a loner anyway, and an unfortunate event, which I'll not spoil, tugs at her heart very deeply. A sinister thread runs through the whole game which points to an entirely different edge, but Sophie is looking for meaning and happiness. Your choices as you play will provide that meaning. I'm pretty sure options we get do not extend too broadly, but mine took a more logical route with some curiosity mixed in. I'm a male and I love to play female protagonist games, but whenever the question of sex comes up I play the virgin angle. Either way you will get a different accomplishment depending on if you choose to sleep around or not. Later in the story you get to learn about how that approach worked out for your predecessors as well. I also played the more scientific or logical choices, those just made sense as a safe bet because Sophie is a teacher. But you might want to try other branch choices towards the mystical or even towards baser human tendencies. I guess the game, is trying to place us in a situation in which we start to judge not just our beliefs but also our past and our parents. And whenever we judge our past, we are really judging our future decisions too. Indirectly, we really start to judge ourselves based on experiences given us by our parents. With a theme of science/witchcraft or pagan/Christian running in the background the entire time; some of the decision branches are less about person and more about society. Choices Like the last game I reviewed*, the accomplishments do not pop as you make your choices, you are left in the dark. This means you have no idea how far from the story end you are, the only clue you have is the tension build-up. This story's plot line has a good build and a release at the end too. And after that, the achievements pop and you get some feedback as to what path your decisions have put you on. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3783712985 The game has a sort of moral compass with 4 guiding motifs or stars. GLOBE Science, a bit like Sophie when she is a school teacher SUN Empathy, Sophie draws on her people and peace making skills MOON Emotions, the volatile side in us all STAR Pentagram, the villagers think Sophie may be a witch, are you? About the only thing I can say negative about this game, is that in the longer dialog patches, the music ends. Music, which could easily have looped because it's not monotonous at all. The hand drawn art is brought to life by subtle sound effects which really make the colour and mood of the chapters stand up in the imagination. * If you liked this game a recent similar game with very similar mechanics will definitely float your boat https://steamcommunity.com/id/zaphodikus/recommended/1658960/ Even so I've made a list of the more thoughtful games I have played in the last few years, do take a gander https://store.steampowered.com/curator/41773079-EmpathyGames/list/91358/

Along The Edge est un visual novel racontant l'histoire d'une jeune adulte revenant dans son village natal pour y visiter le manoir familial après un héritage. L'histoire se laisse suivre, les choix et les embranchements possibles sont riches. En fait, si vous suivez vos intuitions telles que vous reagiriez en vrai, cela vous donne un super test de personnalité sur mesure ! Un peu court en soi, mais assez prenant vu les différents choix parfois assez stressants que vous aurez a prendre. Les différents tableaux et dessins sont magnifiques. A prendre entre 2 grosses productions pour décompresser.

Interesting story, as usual for Nova-box. A good ol' classic Choose Your Own Adventure. I particularly enjoyed the soundtrack, which is mostly made up of calm piano music. However, for the love of God Nova-box, could you please add an "skip already read text"? As much as I love doing multiple runs and discovering new endings by myself, the repetition was a bit tedious.

The story really captivated me, so much that I replayed it four more times trying to get all the achievements. After you've completed the story once, you can skip through the conversations but it still takes just shy of 1 1/2 hrs to get through. There are 5 hidden achievements that I haven't been able to unlock, but I think at some point I will try again, just because I like the story and characters so much. Really reminds me of the choose your own adventure novels that I read as a kid, but with more adult topics. Great artwork and I love the music. I got it on sale so it really was a great deal since I've been enjoying it so much!
