About This Game A licensed adaptation of an original 1980s fantasy gamebook, faithfully recreated with new soundtrack and artwork. Player choices lead to 22 different endings! All your life, you dream of adventure: knights, dragons, magic rings, chests of gold, and all the danger and glory that awaits a professional swordswoman. But every dream has a cost. You are on your way across the desert wastes to compete in the Warrior Games when your caravan is attacked. Orcs and bandits murder your father, capture your companions, and leave you for dead. Now alone in the world, will you choose to seek glory, vengeance, treasure... or love? Your choices might make you into a hero, or a queen, or leave you buried forever in the dragon's lair. 1075eedd30 Title: Sword DaughterGenre: Adventure, IndieDeveloper:HanabiraPublisher:Hanako GamesRelease Date: 13 Feb, 2015 Sword Daughter Download For Pc [Xforce Keygen] I enjoyed the heck out of this one. It's very simple and the game won't take long to finish, but the story's fun and the artwork's delightful. What more can you ask from a retro gamebook-turned-visual novel?. Not a better love story than Twilight.In a word? Boring. Repetative dialogue (even when making different choices at key moments), dull characters (I honestly don't care at all whether we rescue the slaves, or whether the protagonist dies or not) and emotionless scenes make getting through this game a chore, which is suprising because it is so short. If the player can't connect with the protagonist, then you have failed. The protagonist is supposed to be an extension of myself, and if I choose the option to fight, hoping that she would die so this particular storyline can finish, well that is a bad reflection on the story. Although it is not labelled as such, this is a graphic novel, and while the graphics are up to par, the story isn't; hopefully whoever created the artwork for this never collaborates with the author again and can move on to much better things.When the summary asked "will you be tempted by elven romance?" I presumed that meant I would get a choice in the matter, but it seems that only in the endings where you die do you actually not have to suffer through this 'romance' that the game is trying to force upon you. The creators have obviously never seen any anime; the loner type, who of course is the pretty boy elf, is supposed to be awkward and standoffish to the person he likes before eventually, EVENTUALLY, letting them in enough to see that he is a good person underneath. This doesn't happen in a matter of hours as seems apparent in this game.The graphics are pretty, but that is the only upside.. I wish I could, but I can't recommend the game for its current price (6.99). It is simply too short for that; the first playthrough took me about half an hour. Everything, especially relationships, happens way too fast to make any sense. There is simply not enough time to get attached to any of the characters. Speaking of which, I kinda expected Tyrna to be a fierce warrior (since the game is called "Sword Daughter" and all), but she just ends up getting saved by her elven companion most of the time. The story is a bit bland, but enjoyable overall.What I fancied about the game was the art; it is beautiful. Soundtrack is pleasant to listen to as well and your choices truly matter! All of the 22 endings differ from each other. Perhaps not always plotwise, but you get a new piece of dialogue. If you want to play this game, wait for a sale (like I did).. The reviews aren't overwhelmingly positive but if you read them first to know what to expect, it's a fun game, albeit very short and sometimes vaguely corny. Once you accept that romance *will* happen regardless of whether you want it to or it not making sense, etc, it's an interesting fantasy world to explore for a couple of hours. The game is in a visual novel style with pleasant art, and the "section map" makes it easy to figure out where to start back from in order to try different choices. The paths leading to the multiple endings are varied enough to keep the story interesting (and personally I couldn't stop till I at least figured out how to get the Dragon Rider one!).. Well I thought this would be a cool fighting fantasty game but it's just some ginger bint after some elf knob.. Recommend only for the nosltiga factor. I had this book as a young girl and had fond memories of it. The writing is cluncker and more rushed then I remember but that's the way of it. I did miss the art from the book and wish they could have had more expressions and art then the same few they kept reusing. Still it was fun to revist old memories.. I'll recomend it if you see it on sale but besides that idk merp. Kinda a not very much zainy but im gonna say zainy adventure for the shear fact elf man and the mc fall in love in less than 38 hours, they setting records man lol. Still havent become a queen (its a steam achivment) but u know what, even if you dont marry a king or have royal blood, ALL WOMAN ARE QUEENS *slapped* lol enjoy a revenge orc adventure ya'll. Hot elf man 10/10. Great music, beautiful art. A generally solid visual novel.. The characters are memorable and the story is well written and I can`t wait to read more and try different paths. I love the music and artwork, which bring you to a place of mystery and magic. A desert realm of ancient beauty I even feel myself to be there in person for every bad review that is written of this wonderful story I feel like they`ve missed the true aspect of this game and it`s not only fantasy, fun but also romantic and the artwork is very good. One of the best visual novel games I`ve ever had the pleasure of playing.. Kinda like a bad date. Initially looks promising then goes from bad to over in 10 seconds leaving you asking "is that it?"This casual game is easy in difficulty and extremely short in gameplay. I completed all story choices, endings, and achievements in an hour and a half including a few times I left the game running and went to do something returning to the game 5 - 10 minutes later. While the illustrations are beautiful and the sound effects/music enrich the story/atmosphere be aware that this game is all reading dialogue/descriptions that result from the "choose your own ending" mechanic. I do not recommend this game because although the main character Tyrna is described as a skilled and trained warrior and set up to appear a strong female ultimately every obstacle she faces is remedied by her stalling and the male protagonist Gavin popping up at the last minute to save her. Why make her a warrior in the first place if she needs someone to save her??? Just make her a stereotypical princess and avoid the bait and switch I fell for. In addition to the damsel in distress situation I disliked that there is a romantic element between the 2 protagonists that just seems like the creators added it just because. Literally a couple choices in and Gavin is grabbing and kissing Tyrna (depending on player choices of course) which doesn’t compliment the story and feels artificial. "But Babydollpinup does that really impact the gameplay?" YES! This game style focuses on the high quality of story telling so YES the bad romance aspect is a major flaw in this process and turns it into a sloppily written story with cool graphics/sound that ends quickly.
