Summary
This review is based on author's perspective and actual experience may differ on individual's own preferences.
Good
  • Love and Ashes presents an unusual premise, taking place in an Arab environment, which is a refreshing change from the typical settings in many games. However, the execution of the story leaves something to be desired. The 'corruption' aspect feels rushed and childish, detracting from the overall experience. Furthermore, the writing and grammar are lacking, which negatively impacts the immersion.
  • Visually, Love and Ashes manages to impress. The character designs are decent, prompting curiosity about what lies beneath those loose dresses. The environments are also well-crafted, providing a visually appealing backdrop for the game. However, despite the pleasant visual presentation, it is important to note that visuals alone cannot compensate for other shortcomings in the game.
  • Love and Ashes offers an interesting start that captivates to some extent. There is an inherent curiosity to explore the unique premise and discover where the story leads. However, the game still falls short of delivering a truly engaging experience that keeps players hooked.
  • The core loop in Love and Ashes leaves much to be desired. While the game presents an intriguing concept, it fails to provide a satisfying progression or meaningful choices. The limitations of the poorly-written main character, who quickly deviates from their supposedly pious nature, seem counterproductive.
