April 2025
If you like Mystery Stories, definititly play this. The Story is so exitng, I was unable to put it down always needing to know what happens next. The Narration is really athmospheric and full of emotion, the character-Designs are all so full of charming and the music really adds to the atmosphere Probably the most unique Part of this game is the "chronicle" funtion. There are certain Turning points in the Story where you have to make a decision - but instead of those decisions leading you down a different Part to the ending they will lead to one of the various bad endings. You dont have to restart the game afterwards - instead you can just go back to the Turning points at any time and continue with a different decision. All the Information you get in the different paths come together to lead you to the true ending. Your main character however dosent remeber the alternative parts, only you as a Player do, which leads to some pretty interesting scenes

Really good game! I hate replaying games to get multiple endings so the idea of the 'ending tree' with branches marking off which paths you take was a really creative and fun touch that allowed me to get all endings of the game in one playthrough with no resets. I which more games took this approach.

A bizarre, intriguing story told in a compelling way. The voice acting was very good and the characterisation was even better. Ultimately it's a linear story, despite the appearance of being branched, but that didn't really detract from the storytelling. Personally I loved practically all of the characters; they were all very well-written, with their own motivations, strengths and flaws, and through the various branches of the story we explore their relationships from multiple angles. 10/10 would recommend to anyone.

Beacon Pines is incredible! The art is beautiful, the characters are charming, and the plot GOES PLACES. The beginning "tutorial" seems slow with some hand holding, but don't worry, the narrator lets you go off on your own and you quickly get swept up into the world of Beacon Pines. The game follows Luka and his friends on their mysterious adventures as they try to unravel the secrets of their tiny town. I wasn't sure what to expect when I played, but I was taken away by the plot twists, the reveals, and the cozy/mysterious/suspenseful atmosphere. Definitely recommend this for anyone who loves narrative games, wants to explore branching plots, and is ready for a cozy game with emotional scenes and incredible music! I still think about this game even months after finishing it.

Watch it then redo it Beacon Pines is a visual novel style adventure game . The plot takes place in the city of Beacon Pines and the protagonist is Luca Van Horn, a boy who lost his father in an accident and his mother recently disappeared. The game is a web of mysteries waiting to be discovered. The main theme of the game is to advance the story until a bad ending and then try again by choosing another path. These choices are limited by Charms , specific words that you need to find by exploring the city's various scenarios and talking to the city's residents. Armed with Charms , the narrator will always suggest coming back at some dead end and using the new words to help Luca get out of trouble. Like a good mystery plot, the best thing is to discover it by playing, I loved the game and recommend it to anyone who likes adventures, narrated stories and mysteries. The game has a very simple difficulty and its platinum is relatively easy to do.
