Florence Reviews

Completed 18th February, 2025 First time playing an interactive visual novel, didn't expect it to be as engaging as it was. Florence is super short but the story is just going through the life of Florence Yeoh, who's stuck in her daily routine of work, sleep and excessive social media use but her world changes when she meets a Krish, a cello player. The conversations they have are are shown as pieces of a puzzle, a lot of pieces at first and slowly getting lesser and lesser signifying the ease of conversing with Kirsh. I love how the puzzle changes its shape to show how the conversation is going, slowly getting sharper as they go from the excitement of new love to conflicts and challenges of growing apart. The game is super brief but the impact is lasting, defo worth it even when its not on sale. ---{ Graphics }--- ☐ You forget what reality is ☑ Beautiful ☐ Good ☐ Decent ☐ Bad ☐ Don‘t look too long at it ☐ MS-DOS ---{ Gameplay }--- ☐ Very good ☐ Good ☑ It's just gameplay ☐ Mehh ☐ Watch paint dry instead ☐ Just don't ---{ Audio }--- ☐ Eargasm ☐ Very good ☑ Good ☐ Not too bad ☐ Bad ☐ I'm now deaf ---{ Audience }--- ☐ Kids ☑ Teens ☑ Adults ☐ Grandma ---{ PC Requirements }--- ☐ Check if you can run paint ☑ Potato ☐ Decent ☐ Fast ☐ Rich boi ☐ Ask NASA if they have a spare computer ---{ Game Size }--- ☑ Floppy Disk ☐ Old Fashioned ☐ Workable ☐ Big ☐ Will eat 10% of your 1TB hard drive ☐ You will want an entire hard drive to hold it ☐ You will need to invest in a black hole to hold all the data ---{ Difficulty }--- ☑ Just press 'W' ☐ Easy ☐ Easy to learn / Hard to master ☐ Significant brain usage ☐ Difficult ☐ Dark Souls ---{ Grind }--- ☑ Nothing to grind ☐ Only if u care about leaderboards/ranks ☐ Isn't necessary to progress ☐ Average grind level ☐ Too much grind ☐ You'll need a second life for grinding ---{ Story }--- ☐ No Story ☐ Some lore ☐ Average ☑ Good ☐ Lovely ☐ It'll replace your life ---{ Game Time }--- ☑ Long enough for a cup of coffee ☐ Short ☐ Average ☐ Long ☐ To infinity and beyond ---{ Price }--- ☐ It's free! ☑ Worth the price ☐ If it's on sale ☐ If u have some spare money left ☐ Not recommended ☐ You could also just burn your money ---{ Bugs }--- ☑ Never heard of ☐ Minor bugs ☐ Can get annoying ☐ ARK: Survival Evolved ☐ The game itself is a big terrarium for bugs ---{ ? / 10 }--- ☐ 1 ☐ 2 ☐ 3 ☐ 4 ☐ 5 ☐ 6 ☐ 7 ☑ 8 ☐ 9 ☐ 10

Honestly just a beautiful game. It's only 6 bucks and half an hour, no point in not playing it

Florence is a wonderful interactive slice-of-life story that lets you experience all the emotions for yourself. Both visuals and music artfully craft the tone of each scene, and incorporate you into the story. Just like in real life, not everything is sunshine and roses, but that's part of the beauty of it. Total gameplay time is around an hour, maybe a bit more if you want to grab all the achievements.

Very cute game, super creative story telling, directly in the feels. It's very quick too, only took me about half an hour to play through the story. 100% recommended

A beautiful and touching gem about life's highs and lows. Its soundtrack and art are unremarkably clever, merging perfectly with the simple puzzle mechanics with which the story is told.

A beautiful game with a beautiful story, art and soundtrack. Is really short, but you will always remember the feelings.

While this game is quite short, it is extremely good. Its got beautiful sound design, fun and interesting user input interactions, and its super cute. The story hits home in all the right ways. Weather full price or on sale I think this game is worth it

Touching, short visual story. The game play is very simple. The story is simple. But both are subtly clever, too. Just what I needed today.

The mechanics are profound, the art is amazing, the story is touching! <3

I cried. Simple and impactful story driven puzzle game. Would recommend.
