It’s good a few hours in. I’ll update when I either complete it or consider myself done. Art is beautiful. Story is pretty good, with a little romance in a look to the past scene. Wish they’d allow for larger text though. It’s hard to read on my SteamDeck. Edit: Completed game and I still recommend it. It’s about a 4-6 hour, good story and I liked the protagonist and her personal journey and past recollections.
Do not stream this game on YouTube, almost every track has a Content ID match that demonetizes the stream. Outside of that, the game's alright, but it suffers from some severe pacing issues. About 50% of the game is spent in one singular overly long flashback sequence; this would have been less of a problem if it was broken up a bit more by present-day events and then brought up in parts where those parts were relevant. The stand-out highlight moment of the game for me was the moment when Yaqiong and Queenie exchange the sign/countersign in the flower shop . The scene absolutely killed me and brought me close to tears; you can clearly see the absolute moment of realization both characters have and every aspect of the two's lives becoming clear to each other. Honorable mention to Queenie tasting a tear from Yaqiong's cheek in the flashback ... What A Totally Normal Thing For Two Heterosexual Women To Do Together! *smiles at the camera* EDIT: After finally finishing the endings and side stories for both characters, I can comfortably say that this was a really good experience with satisfying romance. I'd overall give it a 7.5 out of 10; my enjoyment was an 8 but the objective quality of the game was more like a 6.5, and I'll round it up a bit. Additional highlight moment(s) in the endings: After how wholesome and adorable and downright sweet Xin Rui's route and epilogue was, and with the rest of the VN generally being fairly conservative and running on classic yuri rules... When I played Queenie's side, my guard was so lowered that her nuclear-level flirting had taken me completely by surprise (in a nice way, of course). I dunno about the next girl, but if you tried the type of ♥♥♥♥ that Queenie did with the pearl necklace on me , I'd collapse into a pile of sapphic goo on the floor. I will not be recoverable. Yaqiong clearly has nerves of steel as a seasoned detective, but I certainly don't. Also, the side story CG of Queenie in glasses... yeah, that got a real strong reaction out of me...
I have mixed feelings towards this game. On one hand, the art is fantastic and definitely a highlight. The relationships are also well done in my opinion. The mystery is lacking though, I'm a big fan of golden age mysteries and honkaku so it could be an issue with me rather than the game. I went in expecting a mystery with clues littered through the story but it felt more focused on the romance and the character's histories with each other. The detective angle felt more like an artistic theme rather than the genre. As long as you go in with that expectation, I'd recommend it but if you're solely looking for a mystery game, I wouldn't recommend it. That said, it's not like the romance is hidden in marketing by a long shot so I think my disappointment in the mystery was more a result of who I am rather than the game being misleading so I'd chosen the recommend option on the Steam review choice.
London: Echoes of the Past, developed and published by Stellar Artificer Games, is a story-driven visual novel that places its full confidence in narrative depth, character relationships, and emotional tension rather than mechanical complexity. Set against a stylized version of 1930s London, the game weaves together elements of mystery and romance into a focused experience that leans heavily on atmosphere and player choice. It is not designed to overwhelm with gameplay systems, but instead to draw players into a carefully constructed narrative where every interaction carries weight. The story centers on a private investigator drawn into a strange case involving a woman presumed dead who has inexplicably resurfaced. From this premise, the narrative unfolds into a layered exploration of identity, memory, and unresolved relationships. Rather than presenting a straightforward mystery, the game gradually reveals its plot through dialogue and character-driven moments, allowing the emotional stakes to build alongside the investigative thread. The pacing is deliberate, often prioritizing character development over immediate answers, which gives the story a more intimate and reflective tone. As the narrative progresses, the lines between past and present blur, creating a sense of lingering tension that keeps players invested. Gameplay follows the traditional structure of a visual novel, with most of the experience revolving around reading dialogue and making decisions that influence the direction of the story. However, the inclusion of light investigative elements—such as examining environments or uncovering small details—adds a subtle layer of interactivity that complements the narrative. These moments are not extensive enough to redefine the gameplay, but they help reinforce the feeling of being involved in an unfolding case rather than simply observing it. The branching paths and multiple endings further enhance this sense of agency, encouraging players to explore different choices and outcomes. One of the game’s strongest aspects is its commitment to character-focused storytelling. The relationships between the central figures are given significant attention, with dialogue that explores both emotional vulnerability and interpersonal conflict. The romantic elements are integrated naturally into the narrative, becoming an essential part of the story rather than a separate feature. This approach gives the game a distinct identity, particularly for players who appreciate narratives that balance personal connection with broader plot developments. The themes of loss, rediscovery, and emotional reconciliation are woven throughout, giving the story a consistent emotional core. Visually, the game adopts an anime-inspired aesthetic supported by detailed character portraits and illustrated scenes that highlight key narrative moments. The environments, while not overly intricate, effectively capture the mood of its historical setting, using lighting and composition to create a sense of atmosphere. The depiction of London serves more as a tonal backdrop than a fully realized world, but it provides enough context to support the narrative. The soundtrack complements the experience with understated compositions that enhance emotional scenes without becoming distracting, though the lack of voice acting may stand out to some players accustomed to fully voiced visual novels. Despite its strengths, the game does encounter some issues in execution. The narrative occasionally struggles with pacing and clarity, with certain transitions or developments feeling abrupt or underexplained. These moments can interrupt the otherwise steady flow of the story, particularly in a genre where coherence is crucial to maintaining immersion. Additionally, the limited gameplay variety means that players seeking more interactive or mechanically engaging experiences may find it lacking. While the branching narrative adds replay value, the overall scope remains relatively contained, which can leave some aspects of the story feeling less explored than they could have been. Another point to consider is the balance between its mystery and romantic elements. While the blend is central to the game’s identity, it may not appeal equally to all players. Those expecting a more traditional detective experience may find the emphasis on relationships more prominent than anticipated, while players drawn to character-driven narratives are likely to appreciate the depth and focus on emotional storytelling. This dual approach gives the game its uniqueness but also narrows its audience to those who enjoy both aspects working together. In the end, London: Echoes of the Past succeeds as a narrative-focused experience that prioritizes storytelling and character development over complexity. It offers a thoughtful and engaging journey that rewards players who are willing to immerse themselves in its world and its characters. While it does not push the boundaries of the genre, it delivers a cohesive and emotionally resonant story that stands out through its tone and focus. For fans of visual novels that emphasize choice, atmosphere, and relationships, it provides a satisfying experience with enough depth to make it memorable. Rating: 8/10
I need to go through the other endings one of these days (especially since the ending I got didn't have any Yuri) but overall it's just kind of okay. Good art and music and there's some interesting character threads it pulls at but it also both overcomplicates the main story as it's going on and oversimplifies it once it reaches the conclusion. The epilogue chapter feels out of place with the rest of the game and the themes it tries to explore remain largely underdeveloped. Still though it's a solid enough mystery overall and I wasn't bored for most of the main mystery. Tough to put this one on a recommend/don't recommend scale cause I'm pretty neutral on it, but landed on recommend cause despite everything being short, cheap and entertaining is enough of a positive to bring it over the line for me. It's very fine, hope the next game this team makes is a bit more focused and has a better translation.
