We have a curious mix of genres that creates something new – a cross between an interactive novel, a roleplaying game, and Kudos. I’ve never experienced anything quite like it but there’s a first time for everything! The language at times is a little quirky, but that’s most likely because Celso’s native tongue is Italian. I can’t complain though as his English is about a million times better than my Italian. The interface and general feel of it looks like it could probably be done more slickly than it is; I found that it seemed to hinder my immersion in the story somehow. It is also rather complex, right from the beginning – there’s precious little handholding or introduction to the game’s many facets.

If you’re interested in trying out a Japanese-style life sim chronicling the dayto- day life of female humans, elves, and demons – then Spirited Heart may be the game for you. You’ll choose a profession, increase skills and stats, develop relationships, and learn about the upbringing and background of your character. Spirited Heart combines painted backgrounds with Anime characters for a unique look.

Sprited Heart is a romantic choose your own adventure and stat-tracking romp. The presentation and graphics are excellent, but the gameplay is dull. You pick a girl, track/influence her stats and then make decisions for her. It’s an RPG without the flashy battles. The demo is a decent length and definitely gives you a good opportunity to get wrapped up in the story and setup your character. The gameplay was too slow paced for me, but the presentation definitely stood out and was excellent.

Spirited Heart, available from Winter Wolves, wasn’t my cup of tea. The game revolves around creating an alter ego (happens to be female), seeking a career and eventually a relationship. I give it a point on originality. On the fundamentals, the game downloaded and ran without problems. The overall style and graphics were fantastic. I didn’t particularly enjoy playing Spirited Heart, and I wouldn’t buy the game personally, but it’s a well crafted and solid on the fundamentals.
