Good read, fun game
If you haven’t had it spoiled, the ending is very interesting. Definitely worth getting, the characters are all enjoyable and the interactions are believable enough. The fantasy setting is vague enough to not bog you down, but detailed enough to add to the story.
Fantastic
Really felt impressed and engaged throughout the story, especially at the ending. The negative reviews just seem very nitpicky, or are made by people who are unnerved by anything remotely sexual at all. If anything, I wish more Choice of Games focused on this stuff more. The romance is the highlight of most of these series, and I always find it disappointing when they just fade to black when anything gets serious, or they keep it shallow. I’m not a child, I dont need, and especially dont want these stories to be PG.
With that said, this entry doesn't have anything all that involved, there’s certainly no sex scenes or anything of the sort. However the romance scenes that are present, are very charged. I don’t feel emotion from written stories very easily, but this writer gets through to me everytime. He manages to successfully capture the heated feelings involved in these moments, not just those of lust, but the emotional as well.
Every story he writes, he manages to make at least one romance target character that I personally feel connected to. I’m not sure any multiple choice story really has achieved that for me quite as well, nor any other medium really. This especially applies to the character of Junko in his Samurai of Hyuga series which is still ongoing, that is his main work and is ongoing to this day.
Compared to Samurai of Hyuga, this is a much shorter story, and is contained to one book. However, its dark, engaging, and well written. It also explores some realistic(albeit not gone into in depth) depictions of politics, religion, and stratified societies.

Fun, light-hearted romp
Good interface, reasonably clear choices, cute romances, and a... surprise at the end that I particularly liked.
Only complaint is that, while the choices did make some difference to the narration, there was little room for divergence. The romances were the significant options. I'd have liked my element/weapon choice to make a bit more difference to my choices. I'm also not sure what difference Corruption made. Nonetheless, these issues are common to most Choices of Games, and this was cleverer than most (in a surprisingly meta way).
Highly recommended.

Let’s not be picky
Many people complain about the nit picky things in stories and ends up making the story seem worse than it really is. The story is great and if you’re not into what the author is selling, then try another! All I’m saying is, this is definitely one of the better stories in choice of games, even if other people claim it to be worse off than it really is.

Just wow
Seriously, this is very well written. It draws you in, in a manner that I had not expected. Well worth the buy. I’ll be checking out their other games
