Players who need continuous action may bounce off when the game shifts into its visual-novel structure, where choices, dialogue, riddles, and repeated attempts carry the progression. Those expecting one definitive route may also hit a wall when the story branches toward several endings.
What is With Good Intentions?
With Good Intentions is a nonlinear visual novel set in the cursed monastery of Shemergard.
The story follows two main characters across two epochs, combining romance, supernatural mysteries, riddles, detective elements, horror, and adventure. Choices shape relationships, events, and the fate of the characters, with several possible endings. Paul faces danger within the abbey, while Rayon repeatedly dies and awakens with memories of previous failures. This time-based cycle lets him seek missing information, try different paths, and change how events unfold. The story explores the monastery’s immortal ruler, the reason its master repeatedly dies and returns, and the connection between the two eras. Players also encounter monsters, loyal knights, dark magic, and possible romantic interests.
