Novena

I want to like “Novena” more than I do. It approaches a delicate subject in what I feel was a blunt and overstated fashion; I imagine some will praise it for its subtlety on the basis that it doesn’t have a literal fireworks display like many modern games. I see value in works like “Novena”, but there are plenty of works that have done what this does in a more engaging, interesting, and overall better fashion. I can’t complain too hard about a free video game that takes less than five minutes to play, but this is a bit overhyped.
