Reviews

“[The] realistic depiction of the pain these characters are holding makes it easy to want them to find some happiness. Unlike the ‘which one will I choose?’ dating sim mechanics of recent Fire Emblem games, in Walk with the Living you get to play cupid, gradually encouraging dispossessed and traumatized characters to open up to each other and (maybe) start to see their future together. . . Perhaps best of all, it's a believably hopeful story about queer people.”

About This Game

Grief leads a swordswoman and a necromancer to raise an infamous knight from his grave. Follow the trio's intimate quest for vengeance and make choices that impact their relationships with one another and those they meet.

-Enjoy beautiful sprite art and character illustrations.

-Consider space and terrain in creative ways to survive fast-paced, player-phase-focused tactical battles.

-Meet complex characters and form relationships, both platonic and romantic, between them to gain in-battle benefits.

-Make choices that impact the narrative and the relationships between various characters. All choices have consequences, both positive and negative.

-Replay and make different choices to discover dozens of secret endings and character epilogues. Weapons, items, and gold carry over with new game plus.

-Characters die permanently, but there are always more stories to be told; when a character dies, new narrative branches, relationships, and recruitments become available.

-Focus on narrative without worrying about battlefield character deaths in Story mode.

-There's a cat!

An unwilling leader of a growing movement to exact justice on the mercenary company raiding villages of the countryside, she harbors doubts about whether her mission to avenge her sister has meaning in the wake of her sister’s death.

After achieving what seemed impossible by raising Rowan from the dead, he accompanies Aoife on her quest of vengeance while holding onto regrets about his late lover, Niall.
