Flower, Sun and Rain




Originally posted on August 21st this year, so it's more recent than Time Hollow. Yeah, yeah, I'm just copy/pasting from Neoseeker right now, and I really need a better box art picture than that one, but fuck it I'm lazy.

Since I've been ill the past few days, I've been playing an assortment of random games but none were more captivating than Breath of Fire III. That said, why the hell is this not about the PSX legend I never played before? Simple: honeymustard.

Honeymustard is an SA goon and sometime recently finished their LP of Flower, Sun and Rain for the Nintendo DS. I never read the thread beyond the initial update since I thought it looked rather boring but I gave it a second chance when it was added to the LPArchive and found it pretty entertaining to read, so I went out and bought the game (bear in mind, this was like 2 weeks ago) and never actually got around to playing it... until this morning.

I found the game to be highly captivating, despite the slow start, and - even though I haven't finished it yet - it keeps getting better as the game progresses. Much like Time Hollow, it's a puzzle/mystery game so fans of Hotel Dusk (which I still need to play...) will likely enjoy it. I'll likely finish FSR sometime soon, and when I do I'll likely write an actual review on it (I should do the same with TH now that I think about it...) so if anyone cares about that, it might happen, it might not (most likely not since I'm a lazy git, but eh, it's an idea).
