Game Overview
A haunted-house assignment turns unexpectedly intimate when a self-taught exorcist meets Lorenn, a charming would-be ghost whose body stubbornly refuses to stay entirely dead. What begins as a supernatural cleanup job becomes a shared living arrangement, a mystery surrounding a fractured soul, and a romance shadowed by an increasingly urgent deadline. A Love Like Broken Glass balances playful teasing and cute domestic comedy with a melancholic paranormal story about death, attachment, and whether love can survive when one person is literally fading away. Its tone is sweet on the surface, but the emotional stakes steadily sharpen as Lorenn’s condition worsens.
Players guide a gender-neutral protagonist through a choice-driven visual novel that runs roughly four to eight hours, depending on reading speed and route choices. Most interaction comes through dialogue decisions: flirt with Lorenn, tease him, offer reassurance, or push conversations in different emotional directions while learning what happened to his soul and why the house feels wrong. A dangerous soul-linking ritual changes the relationship’s dynamic, turning innocent affection into something more possessive and unstable, so choices carry more weight than simple romance-game banter. Four endings provide different resolutions, with only one offering the pair a true happy ending, encouraging another playthrough to see how individual decisions reshape their fate.
The strongest appeal lies in how the game uses its central romance to explore uncomfortable feelings without losing its appealing character art and warm humor. Lorenn is designed as more than a standard ethereal love interest: his clumsiness, vulnerability, and escalating attachment make the relationship deliberately bittersweet rather than purely fluffy. Full voice acting, original music, unlockable CG artwork, a gallery, and a music room give the presentation more polish than many short indie visual novels. Fans of character-focused romance stories with the supernatural mood of a gentle horror tale, especially players who enjoy branching endings and emotionally messy relationships, should find plenty to like here; newcomers should simply be aware of its themes of depression, death, jealousy, and unhealthy attachment.
