By Request #1 - Higurashi: When They Cry - Part 1 - LIES - a podcast by RPG Bookclub
from 2019-10-08T01:43:31
Recently we opened up Commissions on our Ko-fi for people to get episodes covered for their favorite (or own!) game, and the first bite at the apple was by friend of the podcast, Francesco (The same one that came from New York to see us at Classic Game Fest!)
So for this Episode, we played the first half of Episode 1 of fan favorite Visual novel, Higurashi: When They Cry, by Ryukishi07, stopping at the chapter break after we lie to Rena.
While this isn't the first game we've played that dealt with gruesome themes (Like Persona 3), I think I would be remiss to not mention that this game does deal with some dark and gory details, so proceed with caution.
If you'd like to play Higurashi, it's currently available from MangaGamer, who has it on Steam, GOG, and their own website, and each chapter of the game usually runs around 5 bucks.
If you do, I suggest playing it with the wonderful 07th Mod, which gives you more support for modern systems, and some quality of Life updates.
We are on the hook for part 2 of Episode 1 (sometime in the next month or so!) but if you'd like for us to cover Episode 2 and beyond, you can commission them yourself at ko-fi.com/rpgbookclub
