April 2025
Cinderella as You've Never Seen Her Before Cinders is a somewhat gritty retelling of the classic Cinderella story with at times bitingly brilliant writing and utterly enchanting visuals. I have played a lot of visual novels and story-centric simulators, but I’ve yet to find any with the same immersive beauty. Topped off with a gently magical musical score, Cinders is the complete package and a wholly unique experience without being too big of a time investment. In fact, I was able to stream one whole path in around seven hours. The gameplay is pretty standard and the story is engaging; everything you could want from a visual novel. However, fans of more complex stories might find this one to be a bit simple and short without too much variation. Given how easy it is to go back and get the other endings, I would recommend probably purchasing it on sale rather than paying full price for it.

art felt like being in an old painting it was nice. Think the twist on cinderella was nice but I felt like I wasn't compelled to do other endings. As if there wasn't as much of a drive or goal for those plots

I thought the story was okay. There were a couple great moments here and there, but it was pretty simple and mostly predictable. But I absolutely love the art. This game is gorgeous, and I think it makes it worth playing, even just a little bit. I'm also a fan of how the title screen updates with each ending you get.
