Schrödinger's Call is beautiful game about loss and regret, with some of the most beautiful audio and visuals I've ever experienced in a game.

Schrödinger's Call is a very good visual novel that uses the genre’s core mechanics effectively. The story starts off with an apocalyptic bang and then takes some very interesting turns, even if players who care about coherence might have some quibbles by the end. I suggest playing through no more than one game chapter in one session, focusing on how the characters interact with the protagonist and how they all express emotion. Mechanically, dialogue is the main way of interacting with the world, in classic visual novel fashion. There are a few more interactive moments, but no attempt to introduce any sort of significant innovation. Schrödinger's Call’s ability to deliver emotional moments is impressive but playing it can become monotonous.

Schrödinger’s Call delivers an emotional visual novel experience with a good art style and an intriguing premise, but its limited interaction and slow pacing may not appeal to most people. The game places storytelling above all else, offering a strange, surreal journey centred around the final moments before the Moon crashes into Earth. Its artwork and soundtrack help draw players into its narrative, while the individual stories of those Mary encounters provide some genuinely touching moments. However, its extremely limited gameplay, lack of meaningful choices, and occasional repetition can make the experience feel overly passive, meaning I imagine only dedicated visual novel fans will truly get the most enjoyment from it.

My favorite game of the year. The art, music and storytelling is absolutely amazing. I have never cried more in a game. What seems like an emotional VN develops more and more into a masterclass in writing the further the story goes and at the end you will come out with your own experience to interpret. Well worth a replay - not to discover new content, but to rediscover it with new eyes.

I’m about 2-3 hours into this. I’m getting the feeling this game is aimed at adolescents. The box art makes it seem like it could be suspenseful or scary or at least something aimed at adults. I’m not enjoying this but since I spent 20 bucks on it I’ll try and finish it. Maybe my review will change at the end. And yes I like games like House in Fata Morgana (which was amazing), but this game is not that.

Schrödinger’s Call is the best visual novel I’ve experienced in years. Between its incredible visuals, sensational score, and heartbreaking story full of twists and tear-jerking turns, you are bound to leave this incredible narrative experience different from the one you were.

Schrodinger’s Call is a beautiful yet haunting visual novel touching upon the human condition. We explore love, grief, human connection, and the memories that haunt, harm, and heals us. Be it the little white lies we tell ourselves or the the strength we find to face the truth. It is at its core a visual novel which means the game play will feel minimal for many. It’s strength is in the story. It is how it causes us to reflect upon our selves. Schrodinger’s Call will call out to players, wanting them to connect with those important to them. It reminds you that you are not alone, you are loved, you are important, and you matter. There is someone out there waiting to hear your voice. Call them before it’s too late.

Schrödinger's Call turns a simple phone conversation into one of the year's most affecting gaming experiences. Through its cast of lost souls and its emphasis on compassion over confrontation, it serves as a powerful reminder that sometimes the most important thing we can do is listen.

Schrödinger’s Call is a game that you play for the story and atmosphere. If you’re looking for something in which the gameplay extends beyond making dialog choices, you won’t find it here. However, if you enjoy a good page-turner in game form, there’s an intriguing tale waiting for you in Schrödinger’s Call.

At a time when Japanese visual novels have been steadily fading from the spotlight, Schrodinger's Call easily stands out as one of the genre's most worthwhile recommendations. It approaches its themes from a remarkably unique perspective, telling a deeply classical story through inventive narrative techniques.

Summary When the world is coming to an end, who would you want to speak to one last time? Schrödinger’s Call is a visual novel that lets you experience the pain and salvation of human connection, as if you were turning the pages of a picture book.
