In Fair Spirits Reviews

[i]In Fair Spirits[/i] is a yaoi kinetic novel about a centuries old knight and a modern day goth boy who find understanding and love within each other. [h2][u]The Story[/u][/h2] Long ago a curse befell you while trying to save your sister (the full story is in the two previous games The Fairy’s Song followed by The Fairy’s Secret). However this is a stand-alone novel so you do not need to read the previous titles to enjoy this one. The prologue will summarize the previous two games leading up to modern day. The curse drove you mad for centuries but you were eventually freed and killed but only your body. Your spirit was resurrected to eventually face off against the wicked fairies and their evil Queen Titania. You won that battle and now free from the curse you are able to have another chance at life after all that has happened. In the present day you find yourself in 21st century England in the small town of Fenchapel living a quiet and peaceful life, for now… 🌶️ Spice Level - lightly medium. There is no graphic imagery or nudity, just kissing and a bit of sexual teasing and banter. [h2][u]Settings, Features & Gameplay[/u][/h2] Settings & features include; display options, transitions on or off, text skip options, language and audio controls. The text is very easy to read, has lots of save slots and you can take screen captures by pressing down on your mouse scroll wheel or pressing H. You can rewind the text or skip forward. Extras include a selection of music to listen to, a cg gallery with images that unlock as you play and a locked section which becomes available after the main story. This is a kinetic novel so no choices are made on the part of the reader. All achievements are earned by simply enjoying the novel. [h2][u]The Visuals & Audio[/u][/h2] There is no doubt looking at the screen captures on the store page that the art is beautiful and one of my main reasons for being drawn to this novel. The sprites do have facial animations and sometimes have different poses. The backgrounds look really good too, and mesh well with the character art. The palette for the majority of the novel is very vibrant. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3446662197 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3446527817 The soundtrack is a nice selection of instrumental tracks that complement the story. There is no voice acting but there are some ambient sounds scattered throughout like footsteps or a knock on a door. [h2][u]Overall Experience[/u][/h2] I have enjoyed many other novels by [i]ebi-hime[/i] and this one is no exception, I really enjoyed it. The story is fluid and well written with phrases and words relevant to a modern day visual novel. The story does have some darker, heartfelt moments that the two share, it is not all romance. They are both damaged and broken in some way and that hurt is what ultimately brings them together and through that love. Once you're done with the main story the “unlocked” part in the Extras will open up for a bit more story and unlock your last achievement as well. I grabbed this gem during the Spring sale and have enjoyed reading it. A great yaoi kinetic novel for a great price. 💖 [hr][/hr] [i]This game was purchased by me for my personal library. On occasion I share my experiences with the groups I write for to help bring attention to games I’ve personally purchased and wish to give more exposure too.
