Tales of the Black Forest Reviews

Great music with great characters and plot, highly recommended for people who love To The Moon as well

I actually cried at the end of the game, something that have not happened since I played the vanilla persona 5 when it released

It’s a game I think everyone should give a chance at some point. Even though it’s not really a horror game like it claims to be, and it doesn’t have a deep psychological mystery either, it’s still an extremely interesting story that really pulls you in, not just into the story itself, but also into the character. You’re constantly trying to figure out what’s going on, and even if you don’t fully get it, it still keeps you hooked. Since it’s translated, it’s normal that some things are harder to understand than they would be in the original language, but that doesn’t make the game any less enjoyable. The art style is simple, but it fits the story perfectly. The characters aren’t around for very long, but you still grow attached to all of them, and you end up feeling sadness, joy, and sympathy through each of their stories. The ending, in my opinion, is pretty memorable, and the whole thing feels really different from any other RPG Maker game I’ve played. It might not grab you right away, but once it does, it’s like finding gold.

It's a masterpiece. It gives me the feeling of Natsume's Book of Friends. The background music is also excellent, and the game experience is really great.

Probably one of the best games I've played in a while. solid 9/10. When I first played it, I was expecting a fan-service filled, cheap-scare horror game with sucky graphics. but when I actually had a full play-though, I realized this game was absolute peak. Gonna be honest, there is a little bit of fan service, (i.e. Kinoshita Sakurako- the only reason this is a 9/10 instead of a 10/10 lol) but everything other than that is amazing. I cried 5 times in my whole play-though, laughed more times than I should of, and absolutely loved all the characters. its a real addicting game, and it can be scary when it needs to be. it has amazing pacing, and the quotes after every chapter are beautiful. overall, it should of been less sad, but I absolutely love this game. its worth every penny. thank you Shiying Studios. :D

I really enjoyed playing this game. Its a very short and captivating game with 2 endings one being very confusing and leaving the game on a cliffhanger and the other one being a complete true ending. Really liked the time travelling element, it was complete and didn't have any prominent bothersome loopholes. The music is really nice and sets the tone very well. Overall for such a low price this game is a very good and complete experience

Short, story-rich game that interchanges between cute and scary. I would definitely recommend!

The story is so good, that it should be considered illegal. My god what a ride.

I loved this game! And I thought it was really spooky and the style is on point for the kind of games I like. It was easy to get all achievements in one playthrough too. Good if you're looking for a game with a good story.

I found this game quite tragic at first, especially for the main character Kihara Kashin. I won't ruin it for anyone who hasn't experienced the game just yet, but I honestly think you will enjoy what this game has to offer. It's really relaxing at times but also really sad. If you love anime but also appreciate an excellent story, then it is just for you. Enjoy! :)
