Willage is a FMV visual novel game, where you have to deal with difficulties to harvest grapes in a small village.

One thing I liked is the environment of the game, the rural Eastern European countryside is rarely shown in games as it is and it was refreshing to see something closer to reality. The game also easy to play with as you only need to use 3 buttons to change prompts and confirm your decision. Some of the music in the soundtrack is also fitting to the game.

But the other aspects are yet to be desired. The some aspects of the story is weird, and I can understand this game is a start of a larger storytelling, but I just had a different expectations for the game. Also, throughout the game there are a few parts where you can lose your progress and if you couldn't figure out how to save, these can get you off guard. Finally, the game is really short. If you can figure it out, you can get over it in 30 minutes - 1 hour, and considering the gameplay and the overall story, this is just not enough. The whole idea could have just utilized better in my opinion.

I assume this game was just a prologue of what to come, but after finishing it left me with a mixed opinions. I can't recommend this game to get, maybe if you can buy it for less than 1 €.
