As the other reviews have said: You've seen the plot of this VN before. It's an isekai where your typical bland protag is sent to a medieval world to kill the Big Bad. That just about sums the whole thing up. So in that case, why buy? It has good music and animated character sprites, yes, but that isn't the game's main selling point. No, the selling point is the character banter. If you've ever played the Tales series, you may know about the skits games from that franchise have. Crystalline is basically Tales skits expanded into a whole game. I also approve of there being only one love interest for the MC. Otherwise, the game would have the issue of Trails - every female character is waiting on whether the MC will lock in on choosing them, and that could take the whole game. Instead, you have one LI, and the other female characters are free to choose what they want to do romantically. Oh, and I should mention that this is a "feel good" game. As a PixelFade VN, any "horror", if you can call it that, would be suitable for scaring small children. This is a VN where things are great for nearly everyone, and the good times will continue.

Once again PixelFade did very well with this Isekai visual novel, the voice acting again was great, the humour and or banter between the characters i thought was amazing, there are some great choices you can make to add to that as well, the art is beautiful especially the background art, it also has the usual tropes of the Isekai genre. If your a fan of the Isekai genre you will enjoy this.

Nothing special, even if it is a nice game. Few hours into a game and I still don't know what my motivation is beyond "I want to get away from this world back to my old one". I am more or less following along what other think is best for me. At least for now, game feels nice and shallow.

I had enough fun with Crystalline to give this an recommendation if you can get it on discount. Pixelfade has its own take take on well known tropes. This VN is worth your time, the less you know the better experience. PixelFade: Please make Crystalline 2.
