Gorgeous artworks, well done voice acting and a very compelling story. Eternal Glory despite being in early access is an easy recommendation. 💗

^{Note: Game was in early access when review was written (game may still be in EA at time of reading)}

The Story & Gameplay

Nine years ago a curse inflicted you, a curse that took away everything and everyone you loved. Now returning to the scene you see three men observing the remains of your once childhood home. And not just any three men but heads of the Divine Organization. Wondering if they can help you rid yourself of this curse you decide to accept an invitation into the Divine Organization.

You start off playing the prologue and once complete you proceed to choose who’s route you wish to take. Each character’s route is about 20 chapters, including the prologue and special short stories you unlock as you play. At the moment only Uria’s story is complete with some chapters available in Haize and Ismei’s routes.

This game’s endings rely on an affection meter (choices you make that make the UI turn red are a negative affinity while gold is positive for Uria’s route and blue for Ismei’s, not sure about Haize’s). The save system in this game is not done by slots but by each chapter being saved upon completion. You can replay any of the stories once unlocked.

🌶️ Spice Level – medium. More romantic than erotic. There is some suggestive sexual content in the bonus stories you unlock but it does not show any bits. Just more descriptive in the text.

Settings & Features

Settings & features include; screen mode, text skipping options, and audio controls. Features include a gallery that unlocks cg’s as you play and the soundtrack.

The Visuals & Audio

I love all the art in this novel, from the main sprites to the backgrounds. All are hand-drawn, anime style and beautifully coloured. The special moments are just, dare I say “divine”.

Screen captures of Uria as his route is complete. There were not enough of the other routes to take many captures.

The game is voice acted and I enjoyed most of the voice work however I did mute the main character. It is not a negative against the voice actress, just a personal preference. If I am taking on the role of the main character I prefer to create my own voice. In the settings you can mute individual characters including supports so a very nice feature if you have similar preferences.

The background music reminds me of something from a classic rpg. It fits well with the feel of the novel and was in the background but not intrusive to reading the story (if that makes sense).

Overall Experience

This novel, despite being in early access, will join my folder of top games of 2025. I loved not just the beautiful artwork and the voice work but the story itself is so well written. There are also a lot of gorgeous artworks to unlock and feast upon and the whole experience, even if not complete, has a high recommendation from me. 💖
