Steam review snapshots
Either way, this visual novel tells an emotional and tragic story and I couldn't stop until the end once I started playing…In addition to that, the whole vibe of the game stays rather depressing as well and there is hardly a moment implemented…That being said, The End of an Actress is a romance visual novel, with a historical setting, that I can highly recommend…Why it fits
Check it if you want indie filtered by melancholic, story rich, single-player.
