I'm pretty simple when it comes to grading games; did I enjoy it? The simple answer is; yes. I enjoyed playing Akash: Path of Five. Small summary: Akash is a short game focused mostly on small romantic moments with your chosen guy. If you played one route, you've played through all of them, so decide whether it's worth your money to pay only for dialogue changes and a few unique scenes here and there. Positive points - Fully voiced lines! Aurora's VA is absolutely lovely. Even faceless characters get a voice. - Aurora the MC is cute, and definitely written with a Western audience in mind. She's hilarious and can be boldly flirty which I definitely appreciated. I want more MCs like Aurora. She definitely makes playing the game more enjoyable. - That's just a plus point in general; you can be flirty which is usually the good choice to raise affection with your guy. You can even select
Please note, I have disabled comments on this review. If you would like to discuss the review further, you may do so on my Steam Profile or via DM. My heart hurts. I had such high hopes for Akash: Path of the Five. The moment I discovered that the fully-voiced otome VN was only available on the PS4, I’d become instantly envious. And when news hit that it was being ported to PC, I was downright ecstatic. But after having finally played through everything the game has to offer, I can’t help but feel let down. Don’t get me wrong, even if my expectations were more tempered going in, I’d still be glum right now. Akash is beautiful, but empty, ambitious, yet mediocre...and despite the couple things it does right, it does a lot wrong. A LOT. The premise itself may be a problem for some readers. Our story focuses on Aurora, the first female elemental born in over 200 years. As a female, she is
Beings known as elementals can wield magic of the elements: light, fire, water, wind, and earth. Powerful as they are, their species’ survival is at risk. Female elementals have stopped being born, forcing the male elementals to “breed” with human women, resulting in diluted magical prowess. After 200 years without female elementals being born, the protagonist is arises and is burdened with the hopes of her entire race. … At least all her suitors are sexy. Info • 5 romantic interests, 1 infatuation route • Partial nudity; no genitals; one instance of tiddies • Sex scenes are not described in detail. The scene usually trails off before the lewd stuff happens. The Guys • Lux – light elemental, best friend, hates violence/aggression, history nerd, a bit too lawful good • Ignatius – fire elemental, mega introvert who doesn’t like people, a big ol’ softy once you get to know him, like
I'm sorry that I have to leave a negative review, because there was a lot potential here and I enjoyed the game to a certain degree. After trying every single route now, I'm just tired tbh. The art is great, the voice acting is marvelous, the idea was interesting and the moving backgrounds were something new - but became rater annoying later on, when skipping the dialogue was necessary to replay the game for a new route (loading was soo slow). For once, there's 5 boys but only ONE ROUTE. It's all the same, they're just switched out with pictures and dialogue lines. Except David. We don't talk about David. I could've dealt with that though, if the main story would've convinced me. To be honest, some plot holes and weird writing choices kept me wondering. An example for the latter: the part after the actual climax is dragged out to an entire week. An ingame week that's spent like an episo
I installed this game with great anticipation after reading the promotional page, as it looked like it was going to hit all of my sweet spots. But with such anticipation comes high expectations. Would the game be able to live up to them? Travel with me, dear reader, as we journey into the realm of Akash. Story: You play the part of Aurora, the first female to reach the age of maturity for 200 years; in an otherwise exclusively male village of magically attuned beings called Elementals. As such, it is deemed your duty to find a partner and produce a plethora of children, as they would be Elemental purebloods with a much stronger control of magic than the human half-breeds which have been the only source of generational survival for the species throughout the period of feminine absentia. Underlying this premise is the Elementals' uneasy relationship with the humans of a neighbouring villa
I think I've written maybe one other review on Steam before, so mine's gonna be a bit more unpracticed and informal than perhaps some others. I'll end this with a nice TL;DR if you're looking for a nice and short review. To make this easy to organize my thoughts around, I'll compile kind of a list of key points: 1. Story 2. Romance 3. Art 4. Music 5. Acting The best parts are certainly the art and the music, both are absolutely lovely and charmed the pants off of me, especially the music. I have kind of a Thing for audio, music, voice acting, all that jazz, and personally I was VERY fond of the acting. However, that brings me to sort of a double-edged comment, in which I think the acting is what really made me any kind of motivated to keep going. I'm really appreciative of the main character having a voice, especially an *adult* one, as a lot of otome games lean into adolescent kind of
