Apr 11, 2019Cinders’ story had me hooked from beginning to end, while its compelling cast of characters, the themes it explores and its deviations from the traditional narrative of Cinderella made for a surprisingly poignant tale that I won’t soon forget.

Apr 4, 2019Cinders is a fine experience to have at home or on the go. The developers have done everything I would have wanted in a port. If you’ve been waiting on checking this out or are just looking for a new visual novel on the Switch, give Cinders a go.

Jan 4, 2021The story in Cinders can and does veer off at unexpected tangents. Absolutely nothing is concrete, and what feels like the best choice can end up being the worst if a scenario is repeated a few times to see what will happen next. With a high replay value to experience different decisions, Cinders certainly provides a new take on a classic tale, with style and imagination that will impact gamers more than other versions of the tale can. A wide range of morals are presented to the gamer, making it their choice whether Cinderella is a kind girl, or one who looks out for herself, and is as selfish as her step-sisters initially seem.

Mar 24, 2019Cinders breathes new life into a tired fairytale in a way that is smart, dark and funny.

May 23, 2019Cinders is a visual novel based on the classic Cinderella story while reflecting a more modern take on the original and as a game that offers four different endings, it works: its concise, appealing writing, quality illustrations and compelling finals make this a motivating experience for fans of visual novels. Pity for its rather short length, which means that players have even more reasons to reach all possible endings.

Feb 28, 2019Though Cinders would like to be a mature version of the Cinderella fairy tale, it fails to separate itself from the original and ends up rehashing a story we've all heard before.
-
Feb 22, 2019If you want something short with a little kick of humour, then Cinders is probably right up your alley. It’s nice, but not much more than that.
