Thousands of the years ago, the generation ship Mugunghwa was sent out to establish a colony. It disappeared, never reaching its destination, its ultimate fate remaining an unsolved mystery... until now. Uncover what happened to the final generation aboard the Mugunghwa by reading through its dead crew's logs, with the help of a spunky AI sidekick! Two pursuable characters. Five endings. A dark visual novel mystery based on Korean history, featuring transhumanism, traditional marriage, loneliness, and cosplay. Welcome to the future.
I really enjoyed Analogue: A Hate Story. The only thing preventing me from rating it any higher is its length (I finished the first route in 3 hours, man ;-;). It ended too quickly for me, and I feel that there should have been more time to digest everything, especially given the weight of the topics discussed in the game.
That's pretty much the only thing that I felt was off. Everything else was executed really well. Christine Love did a great job in handling the story and treating all the delicate subjects with proper respect. The soundtrack is particularly good and it reflects the mood of the story and changes in the plot almost perfectly. The format is engaging and you'll find yourself reading the logs vigorously, wanting to discover more about what happened aboard the Mugunghwa while it was still in operation.
There's my two cents. If you want a great visual novel that's short, fun, and sets itself apart from the rest, there's nothing to stop you from buying this game and playing it.
