Genre: Visual Novel
Summary: Years after her disgrace, Ishara returns to her family to steal her boat and becomes entangled in her sister's wedding.
Gameplay: An early decisions influences whether the story will follow Ishara's journey with her sister or her sister's fiance. There is a sole later decision. There is also an optional turn-based combat system with multiple battle abilities for different characters.
Style: The art aids the story and characterization, as does the good music. There are also nice sound effects and quips during combat, although the latter seem a bit strange when there is no other spoken dialogue.
Story: Given the lack of decisions, there's not a lot of variety in the story, but the story that is there is very engaging with empathetic characters and exciting action. Not a lot of backstory is given upfront, and certain details can only be learned in one path or the other. This is a bit intriguing, but also somewhat frustrating.
Conclusion: Although lacking in options, Ishara offers fun combat and an entertaining story.
