14 Days With You

A lewd visual novel with horror elements is what 14 Days With You is all about. I am all about this kind of thing and with it having a boy's love twist too, it makes for a very interesting and engaging experience. I will say that the version I have played is only a couple of chapters long, but from what I have seen and read from the developer, progression is coming along nicely and more chapters are going to be added to the game sooner than later. Still, I had such a great time with this, I wanted to get my thoughts down while they were fresh.

Strange Things Have Been Happening

One of the things that 14 Days With You did which enabled it to get its hooks into me so deep was having such a great opening and setup. We play as an MC who we can name and give pronouns to and so on, but I just played them as a regular dude. Anyway, our MC has moved back to their hometown of Corland Bay and things are weird. Stuff goes missing around our place and a neighbor is convinced that they saw someone leaving our house late at night!

My Night In Shining Armor!

We have a fairly mundane job in 14 Days With You, but we have this cute pink haired guy called Ren who seems to take a liking to us and who can keep us safe…. Well, that is what he says his intentions are. Ren has a very unhealthy kind of obsession with us to the point where he will do anything to have us and get rid of anyone that he feels may come between us. It is a story of obsession, but there is a bit of a horror and creepy twist to it all. It is very well written and I think that it manages to walk a fine line of making you interested in this guy, but also making you very wary of him too. I am very interested to see where this all goes!

One Stalker To Rule Them

One of the most interesting things about 14 Days With You is that this is a lewd visual novel game that does not have several love interests. You still have to make various choices as you progress and each day in the game will have different endings ranging from good and bad, but you do not have to romance a bunch of dudes. I liked this approach, it made the stuff we do with Ren feel more real and more scary when his affections start to get a bit much. The choices come at a decent rate and I always felt like the choices I was making had some weight to them.

Purple Haze!

The way that 14 Days With You looks is very interesting. The characters have an anime look about them and Ren sure is a cute character, him being cute makes his rather disturbing personality even more creepy and hard to deal with! They have given each of the characters in the game a very cool vibe about them.

What really sets this game apart from the rest is the rather strange, but cool purple tint many of the scenes have. It is hard to explain and the developer says that they went all in with ambience effects, but it does give the game a cool vibe. As far as the XXX stuff goes, there is a bit of it in this early part of the game and it has that same cool and stylish anime thing going on as the rest of the game.

Pros:

• I thought Ren was a very complex character
• You can put your own spin on the MC
• Your choices feel like they matter
• I love the whole weird creepy vibe that this story has going on

Cons:

• I wish that they could release the chapters a bit quicker!
• The story may be a tad too weird for some people to get into
