Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a long campaign may reach the end quickly because the game is described as very short.
- Players wanting a large cast or broad world may find the structure limited to four clients and a room-centered divination process.
- Players looking for action, racing, or strategy gameplay will find a visual novel focused on conversation and rune readings.
Our take on DIVINATION
Players seeking a long-form story may hit the wall after the four client encounters are complete. The experience is explicitly very short, with its structure centered on conversations, rune readings, and the endings produced by those divinations.
What is DIVINATION?
DIVINATION is a very short visual novel set in a futuristic city.
The player acts as a fortune teller, speaking with clients and hearing their stories before reading the runes they have drawn. The readings address questions about personal secrets, future events, loved ones, and the meaning of life. Divination outcomes affect the fate of humans and robots and lead to multiple endings. The game includes four clients, each with a different story, body, and mind. A flowchart is included for the divination process, alongside an ominous ethno-futuristic soundtrack.
