Rituals in the Dark

Aspen has always been a pushover. When she invited her friends to stay at her place however, she didn't imagine Pippa would literally push her into the abandoned house next door. Maybe it's just her bad luck, like when she found the old lady dead a few months back, in this very house. Or maybe her friends... just aren't. But Aspen is not the only one in there. After meeting a mysterious girl Althea in the dark, Aspen has to uncover who she is.


I liked...

  • The atmosphere (the writing, music and art really come together to create a moody atmosphere of night and being lost in life)
  • The characters (typically for Ebi-hime, we get to look into main character's head more than in some other VNs)
  • The story (while short, it does reach a satisfying ending)

Verdict

Despite its name, Rituals in the Dark isn't a horror, but a moody romantic story. It's beautifully produced and I enjoyed reading it, just don't expect a novel-length work. Definitely recommended.
