The world of visual novels, a genre often associated with deep narratives and player choices, has seen limited representation on mobile platforms. Notable exceptions like the Methods series stand out, but the genre remains largely dominated by PC releases. However, Seedsow Lullaby is poised to break this trend with its upcoming release on May 1st for iOS and Android devices.
At first glance, Seedsow Lullaby may seem puzzling as it markets itself as a visual novel without choices or branching paths. You might wonder, "Isn't that the essence of a visual novel?" While choice is a significant aspect, Seedsow Lullaby's unique premise could well compensate for this deviation.
In Seedsow Lullaby, protagonist Misuzu, a high schooler who lost her mother at a young age, encounters a surprising twist on her sixteenth birthday. A woman claiming to be her mother, also at the age of sixteen, appears. Misuzu is tasked with conducting the Seedsow Ceremony, a ritual meant to bring about the rebirth of the gods. To accomplish this, she must collaborate with a younger version of her deceased mother and her own future daughter as they journey through a mythical landscape.
Time travel is not uncommon in visual novels; the iconic Steins;Gate, for instance, is renowned for its intricate use of alternative timelines and branching narratives. Yet, Seedsow Lullaby offers a more linear approach to this concept. While this might deter some fans of the genre, the exploration of life, death, and the inevitability of the future promises a compelling storyline.
