Reviews

“The Shadows of Pygmalion provides a tremendously enjoyable dramatic story which showcases just how strenuous being a “hero” can be. [...It] dives in immediately and basically never lets the reader catch a break.”
Hardcore Gamer

“The Shadows of Pygmalion has to be one of my favorite experiences with a visual novel because of how much detail and dedication you can see was put into this novel. [...] The superb writing, excellently told story, unique characters, the hand drawn and detailed art style, well done cg scenes where used, classical music with good variety, exquisitely used sound effects and amazing voice acting make this novel one to remember.”
The Drastik Measure

“The Shadows of Pygmalion is an excellent visual novel. The interesting characters slowly grow on you making for a captivating drama, while the action-packed scenes serve as a perfect break of pace. Its strong production values and unique eerie story makes this a game that will keep you hooked as you slowly unravel the mystery.”

About This Game

Step into the shoes of Mina, an ordinary high school girl who stumbles upon a secret war in the shadows of society. After resonating with a doll named Ruka, you gain supernatural powers to aid you in the conflict against Puppets, inhuman beings who have been secretly pulling strings to manipulate the course of human history.
