The pixel graphics are fantastic and the story is pretty interesting, however the slow scene transitions are annoying and there are a few grammatical errors here and there. Overall I liked it though, and I want to see more!
Reviews for "The Sword and the Fox"
glad to play this demo, love to see more!
Attention anyone: Please try not to vote/review before playing it on your machine, if it lags on NG.
All in all, this is not a bad game - To be a bad game, it requires being a game. This is more like a movie with choices, not even a VN since the lynchpin of VNs are multiple choices and their impact on the story.
That being said, this is a GOOD interactive movie from art/music and overall looks but it suffers from linearity. The only multiple choice in this demo (this is also another issue - if it's a demo it's good to give a heads up to the audience!) only gives a different dialogue - which is not revelant for progression, just a piece of lore.
A few typos and gramatical mistakes that can be easily corrected.
All in all, it has a great VN potential, as long as you put some effort on multiple choices.

Thank you. I do hope to correct these issues and expand on this story.
Very cool! The pixel art and music fit well with the story. There were a few typos though, but I assume this is wip so I'm exited to see were it goes!
Amazing story and great graphics. Certainly worth the read, while it's quick. Just a shame it's not a full RPG, more a visual novel. If there'd be a bigger storyline to follow and actually play through it would be even better!
