Arcadia Fallen has won the Editor's Choice Award for Best Narrative at IndieDB Indie of the Year Awards 2021! We are incredibly proud and honored to have been selected for this reward!
[quote=Kralich/David, IndieDB]Visual novels are all about experiencing a story first-hand. Sometimes you're a nameless face of ambiguous gender; sometimes you're a set character inhabiting a mostly defined personality with a little wriggle room here or there. Arcadia Fallen, however, presents something for everyone - quite literally! Decisions are remarkably open-ended with a lot of different narratives to pursue, whilst the player character is greatly customisable regardless of where your gender identity sits. Special attention has been paid to inclusivity, with players of many orientations able to engage platonically or romantically with a cast of likeable, varied characters. Arcadia Fallen sets the bar for inclusive, player-driven visual novels.
