Though it was short, I enjoyed the time I had with Belladonna. It’s a dark, gothic point-and-click adventure (my favourite genre) and includes a love story (of sorts) between two women. It’s a bit text heavy and the actual gameplay is a bit lacking, but it’s quite a pretty game and there’s some good voice acting here.
The relationship itself isn’t particularly inspiring, but it’s a cute little game, and I like what the developer tried to do.
You should play this if…
You like point-and-click adventures and would enjoy one that’s a little bit queer (in many senses of the word). Just know that it is short, so if you’re looking for a more meaty experience, maybe give it a miss. It touches on some dark themes, so be a bit careful if you’re particularly triggered by death.
