Once you have started with reading you don\u2018t want to stop.Each time a new Mist appears, means that something funny will happen.PlaytimeConcerning the playtime, one guy states in his review that he needed only 3h to complete his first playthrough. I can only absolutely disagree to this, since I cleared the true end after around 20h.The two other routes are kind of short, it will take around additional 2-3h to complete them.On a side note: Neko\u2018s route was very sweet and all, but the end\u2026 I didn\u2018t expected it to end like this, well, it escalated quickly :D Nevertheless it ended kind of abrupt.CharactersThe characters are great, both main cast and side characters are very likeable.Somehow Rito was the one who I like the most, closely followed by Ushio.Voice ActingVoice acting is amazing, especially Ushio\u2018s voice and her pronunciation. Even if you only listen to her voice in the main menu, you will fall for her :DThe principles Seiyuu deserves also to be mentioned, I love her way to speak. She does a very good job!SoundtrackThe Soundtrack as a whole belongs to the better ones, there are some really beautiful tracks. For example \u201cCamellia\u201d gets very emotional as soon as the flute starts to play. \u201cA Visit To The Realm Of Night\u201d is also great.After opening the BGM menu, I was surprised in a positive way. Each track has a small comment written by the composer. As for the menu\u2019s general appearance, it is well done.OP\/EDOh boy, the OP is cool as \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665, such a great song! I can say the same about the ED, it\u2019s a rearranged version of the OP and sounds amazing. Amazing isn't even the right word to describe the ED, it sounds more than amazing or beautiful.ChoicesA good thing in this VN is the amount of choices you can make, some require you to think logically about the previous events. If you are good enough you will even unlock something ;)CgsThe Cgs are beautifully drawn, in a nice art style. You can look at them in a gallery afterwards.BugsSadly, this is the first VN where I have to write a bit more in this section.Someone in the Steam forum said: \u201cIt seems that this game is being held together with duct tape\u201c. This is the truth.It all starts when you launch the game, you will notice that your steam playtime isn\u2018t being tracked. Well, luckily there is a workaround! This workaround may work BUT it leads to way more bugs.Such as nasty text errors. At the start and at the end of each sentence you will see a \u201eg\u201c and a \u201ej\u201c.I thought "Okay, I can overlook it" until THAT happened. The game crashed twice at the same scene. So I had to undo the workaround, play a bit further and then redo the workaround. This happened multiple times and was annoying.Another point of criticism is that new updates take forever, the support for this game seems to be almost non existentAll in all, the general impression of the game\u2018s technical state is kind of poor.PricetagConsidering its technical state 20\u20ac is a bit overpriced. I guess Ley-Line\u2019s discount price of 15\u20ac is acceptable. ConclusionYou get roughly 24h of play time, an interesting and captivating story, awesome voice acting and many more great things. As the first part of a trilogy, this game makes a good impression, so I will definitely buy the other two parts. I only hope that the following games won\u2019t be such a technical mess.. Great Voice Acting, Great characters, Great Art Design and Great Story. There is really nothing to complain about. EXCEPT the poor Steam port. Steam overlay, playtime tracking and Textsigns are still buggy after a year. But they promised to use a new engine for the following games in the trilogy. I am looking forward to it.Sadly quite overlooked with very few reviews.. This is the first visual novel I've read from Unison Shift: Blossom. I'm happy to say that they impressed. For what is essentially a Visual Novel starting a trilogy, they did an exceptional job of wrapping everything up nicely, while still leaving more than enough to make you want more. The Borderline of Dusk first released in Japan in 2012, and was followed by the other two games, "A Clockwork Ley-Line: Daybreak of Remnants Shadow" in 2013, and "A Clockwork Ley-Line: Flowers Falling in the Morning Mist" in 2015. Now they're localising the entire trilogy into English.I knew nothing about A Clockwork Ley-Line before entering this game. All I knew is that it was a new release, meant to start a trilogy. Even after I completed the game, I haven't looked into what the other games contain. But if they're even half as enjoyable as this one, then it will be one incredible series.First off, I'm going to deal with the cons. One of the biggest problems with this game is the incredibly poor translation(?) they've done. For starters, on four different occassions, the text was still japanese. The main characters name swaps to being japanese for half the Ushio route end. Every textbox that has over three sentences is broken, and the percentage symbol wasn't a proper unicode character according to my version. I don't know if I broke something in my directory, or if the game really is that bugged normally, but the state of the game isn't great on a technical level. I had three crashes on the same scene because the backlog was broken too. Anyway, all of these are definitely problems, but the game is perfectly readable and understandable as is. Maybe in a future update the game will be in a better state.Don't let the technical problems make this a miss for you though. It's arguably one of the best visual novels out there, and I don't understand why it isn't as revered as it should be. It does everything right. The story, characters, art, music... all of it is stellar.Let's start with the story. Typical from the start. A new student goes to a school which they find out isn't normal. Cliche, yes, but it isn't badly done. The world remains interesting throughout the visual novel and every chapter highlights new and interesting parts of the story's universe. The truly well crafted part comes in Chapter 5. Every part of the story up until that point felt seperated, but just like classic plays of old, Act 5 brings it all to a satisfying conclusion. My only problems were with pacing problems at times, and the lack of presence with a few characters throughout the chapters (You'll know what I mean when you see it).The characters are one of the strongest parts of this VN, and it has to be. To start a trilogy, you need a cast that will last three games and have a strong enough arc in all of them. And based off this game, they've hit it on the head. Every character is unique and interesting, though I felt that a few needed more presence throughout (namely Rito and Fuhito). My biggest problem comes with the routes. Only Ushio's felt like a proper conclusion to the story. Both Tsubaki and Neko's routes were just... empty.Art is sensational. Great use of style, animation, and motion with the sprites. Some of those scenes were incredibly immersive. Though there were times when I felt the sprite didn't quite represent what they wanted the character to look like, and a few parts where the uniform wasn't what the character was wearing: but all in all, solid.Anyways, a visual novel well worth your time if you're willing to start a unique, magic filled, Japanese Harry Potter-esque, VN trilogy.My breakdown:PROS:+ Story. Solid, but riddled with cliches. Finishes really strongly, but has some problems overall.+ Art. Amazing, but needed more variety.+ Characters. Outstanding, though all but the true route were weak.+ Soundtrack. Atmospheric and added to every scene it was in. Whilst the OP needed work in my opinion, the actually game music was really good, and the ending credits are some of the best I've ever seen (probably only surpassed by Angel Beats! to be honest).+ Trilogy. More games with a great cast, and an awesome world. What's not to love?CONS:- Bugs and Issues. Ranted about this already. Several crashes, and weird text galore.- Steam Problems. One of the weirdest parts of this entire VN is that steam didn't recognise it. It's a known issue, but it never registered that I was playing the game at all. In order to get the playtime I have on my account (for the trading cards), I had to freeze the launcher on my computer so that it would register the game existing. It's ridiculous. So my playtime is around 15-18 hours, not the 5 or so hours steam says I have.- Paid Patch. Not the first game to do this, but the Steam Restoration Patch is not free. Whilst it is not necessary to play the game, and the steam price + patch = full price of the game, it's still a move I do not agree with.- Weak Alternate Routes. Tsubaki and Neko's routes were underwhelming, leading to only one good route in the game.-Scores-Story: 8Characters: 8Art: 8Music: 8Enjoyment: 8Overall: 8/10tl;dr, Great stand alone game, made better by coming in a trilogy._____Frost | Steam ProfileFollow our Curator PageJoin our Curator Discord[discord.gg].
