Mistonia's Hope: The Lost Delight Reviews
Ready for an Otome visual novel set in the kingdom of fairies?
Overall, I enjoyed Mistonia’s Hope. It wasn’t my new favorite otome, but it was as enjoyable as any other. So many are released nowadays, not every title stands out above the rest. But I will say, I’m grateful we’re in a timeline where we get so much otome localized in the West. I know that wasn’t always the case. I mostly enjoyed the romance with the different love interests, plus uncovering the secrets behind what happened to Aprose’s family, or moreso why. I didn’t run into any significant issues in this game either. The usual grammar mistakes weren’t too extensive, it was mostly near the end of the game where I ran into most of them. If you’re a longtime otome fan, you’ll have as much fun with Mistonia’s Hope as any of the tons of other Otomate titles that have been localized. Nonetheless, I wouldn’t say it’s necessarily better than the others. Although, I do think this one is way better than Battlefied Waltz: a somewhat similar Otomate title I reviewed earlier this year, which also had a main girl who lost her family and home. One last note, Mistonia’s Hope took me just about 55 hours to go through every single route and check out the extras I unlocked.
Mistonia's Hope: The Lost Delight is a beautiful otome game, but one that values plot suspense over romance. The way the routes are structured makes you want to know even more, and the art and voice acting are wonderful, with perhaps the only problem I had being how easy it is for the game to overload you with information and not have a way to review it outside of the dictionary. Unfortunately, the translation also has some small issues, but if you are able to correct the errors in your head, as I did, what awaits you is a plot full of unexpected twists, and maybe even a little kiss scene at the end of it all.
