You Left Me (Complete) - A Stunning Indie Visual Novel with a One-Eyed Cat and a Joke-Telling Moon

Game Review

You Left Me is a dark and surreal first-person visual novel that deals with some touchy subjects.

It has you playing with a cyclopic cat and a hilarious moon that tells some lame jokes. It plays just like any other visual novel, but one thing you’ll notice about this game is the artwork. It’s STUNNING.

It features a variety of scenes which you’ll appreciate all the detail that went into the hand-drawn artwork. It simply looks gorgeous. It’s like the devs went out and paid a professional artist to draw stills and blend it with some very nice colors and detail and then mashed it into a novel. The game looks like something from the Final Fantasy series. It’s seriously one of the gorgeous visual novels I’ve ever seen. It’s a nice change from the saturated anime-style you see pretty much in every other novel.

Anyway, you play as a character that wakes up in a different world and you only have until nighttime to escape. You need to find out why you’re here and what you need to do. But at the same time, you’ve forgotten something that you need to recover and seek out. Without spoiling the game, you’ll have to find out for yourself. The story mixes humor, dark, and some other touchy subjects like loneliness and even suicide into one emotionally-driven visual novel. It’s a very polished game.

It features 5 different endings depending on the choices you make and you’ll likely play through at least two of them. It’s that good of a game. I wanted to see all endings so I had to constantly make the “wrong” choices in order to see them all. Each playthrough lasts from about 10 to 20 minutes, so you can easily sail through it and witness the dreamlike original artwork.

The story is amazing. It’s inspiriting and beautiful. I’m not saying anymore.
