VA-11 Hall-A is...special. It genuinely is. I first learned of this game's existence through Girls' Frontline, back when they held that collaboration event between the two games. I thought the character designs were interesting to say the least and my interest was piqued, but I never really gave it much thought until one of my friends gifted me the game. I played (or read through) the entire game on-stream, and by the end, I was honestly touched.

VA-11 Hall-A takes place in the future. Sometime after 2069, in a world where the economy is garbage, the streets are dangerous, dogs can talk and you have robot sex workers. I really have to give the game credit where it's due - it holds nothing back. If it decides it wants to talk about messed up stuff, be it societal or in peoples' personal lives - oh it will. It will delve into the uncanny valley at times. This is about as much as I wanna say because it's best to experience this game as blindly as possible, really.

VA-11 Hall-A is a great time. I don't like visual novels. But I make an exception for VA-11 Hall-A. If this game piques your interest even in the slightest - be it the art style, word of mouth or even the old Girls' Frontline collab event - pick it up. This is one story that it tells that will stick with you for a while to come.

also stella and jill are best girls don't @ me
