To point out why Umineko is great we will need much more words. It is a classic VN without a doubt. A definitive must buy for all mystery lovers. Story is dimensional, twisted, outstanding, and it cannot be predicted. It is a duel between reality and phantasy. Care about details is magnificent. Only one title reminds me of such exact craft and gruesome sights, it is “House in Fata Morgana”.

How far can we deny truth?
Do we believe in miracle?
Can we overcome fate?

Umineko after voice patch is deeply fun. It is satisfying experience in all long run, even considering some small annoyances there and there – options menu, lack of volume sliders, almost endless game. Anyway, what you need for a perfect mystery mansion tale? Memorable characters, oh and let me add in red “voice acting is top tier”.

To feel their humanity.
To feel their desires.
To feel their sins.

“When the music plays”, everything is coming into place, and the scenes are set by mind into motion. Beato displayed how to make games interesting for each one of the 4 chapters. Surpassing my level of imagination, with only very few effects. That’s the power of writing style. Now all what’s left is to wait for another show, in the Answer Arc. ~~Without love it cannot be seen.
