This is the first chapter in the newest entry When They Cry visual novel series produced by Ryukishi07. It features HD graphics, more detailed animations, and newly created songs by many of the composers from Umineko, as well as several new additions.
maybe if i write a positive review phase 2 will come out sooner
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ I've finally read all of this phase including everything that can be unlocked and... man. We've been left with this for years... Absolutely read this VN, for sure, please, but be aware that we're all going to be sitting around waiting for the next phase like we're Vladimir and Estragon from 'Waiting For Godot'.
my friend conducted a survey in Japan asking roughly 1000 men which game yet to come out they are looking forward to the most, naturally none of them mentioned GTA 6.
a large sum did mention Ciconia Phase 2.
impeccable art style, impeccable story. it barely takes a few hours of reading to realize its profoundness. thank you.. Ryukishi07
if you've read and enjoyed higurashi and umineko, ciconia is ABSOLUTELY worth reading right now even if phase 2 never releases. this is some of ryukishi's best work and you're doing yourself a disservice by opting to wait until its fully out. the questions it leaves are so engaging that you cant help but immerse yourself in taking a shot at making sense...
Even with only one phase released out of the four that were planned (and even with it not being likely any other phase comes out soon), it's such a great visual novel and would still highly recommend reading it. I can't stop thinking about those Walls of Peace.
