I’ve played Enola quite a few times now and it’s still one of my favorite games at Umeplay. It’s really not that scary and is much more emotional than horror, so if you’re bad with horror you can definitely still play it.

The whole game feels almost like an immersive play. The music is SO good, especially when Ilya first comes out, and with the lighting and the moonlight at Nika’s monologue. It‘s just so pretty. Enola and Nika’s movements are also insanely doll-like, which makes the character feel so real.

The story is probably my favorite part. I won’t spoil too much, but Ilya’s story gets really emotional toward the end. There’s one flashback scene that gives me chills every single time even though I’ve played this so many times already. The ending is also really sweet and comforting.

The acting is amazinggg and some of the crying scenes feel way too real… I’ve almost cried with them more than once. Every time I replay it I notice something different, which is probably why I keep coming back.

Overall, really beautiful music, story, atmosphere and acting. Not very scary, very emotional, and SUPER replayable. Definitely recommend
