A touching queer narrative game with some light combat elements.
I really liked the themes and characters' stories! Make sure you play both books - Return to Otherwhere is where things really started to shine for me, building on the foundations of the first book. There were some lines I found especially resonant, like becoming less joyful because you're trying to manage how people see you, and parents "wanting their smiling child back", someone's insistence on using a birth name instead of a character's new name because it would be disrespectful of the parents' choice, etc.
I had a few quibbles with the game, but nothing that really affected my experience. The writing itself wasn't super polished, the combat felt clunky, and I found the first book's premise both a little straight-forward (in a hero's journey sense), and confusing (a lot of time/text was spent on the houses when I didn't feel the details added much to the narrative). But overall I found the game very easy to play through, and worth the time spent on it. I even restarted the game o I could see the beginning framing section again, now with added context.

(I couldn't figure out how to play the Winter's Fair DLC, though it may no longer be available)
