The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy's Enormous Size Was A Huge Risk - But It Paid Off

The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy's Enormous Size Was A Huge Risk - But It Paid Off https://ift.tt/Gnt3iIY 55 hours into The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy , Too Kyo Games' visual novel turn-based strategy game, I encountered a particularly touching scene. Two characters, who a few days earlier learned something particularly shocking--one of several moments in the game that recontextualizes the whole experience--get up early and end up watching the sun rise together. It's a little moment of tranquility, of two people bonding over natural beauty amid a particularly rough string of days, and it landed beautifully.
