Editor's Rating
Story - When It All Started leaves players hanging in an unbearable loop of tedious dialogue from the get-go. If you try to empathize with the main character, prepare to feel awful, for he is devoid of any growth or redeeming qualities. You'll even question if his face and hair belong to a cloned character from five other recycled games. Unfortunately, the initial impression is overwhelmingly disappointing. - 35%
Visual - Graphically, When It All Started manages to hit the middle ground. The character designs and backgrounds are decently crafted, but they lack the unique flair that could set them apart from the visual novel crowd. You won't find anything flashy or mind-blowing here, just average visuals that won't dazzle or disappoint. - 55%
Engagement - Engagement is a crucial aspect of any game, and When It All Started fails to grab your attention effectively.The constant redundancy, coupled with illogical character behavior, makes for an infuriating experience. From the very beginning, you'll find yourself yearning to skip through the story or even abandon it altogether. The intro, which should pull players in with intrigue, ends up being the breaking point that shatters their enthusiasm. - 20%
Core Loop - The core loop of When It All Started offers little reprieve from its initial shortcomings. The game fails to provide a compelling reason to continue playing, leaving you questioning why you bothered in the first place. The lack of logical character actions and the absence of hooks to keep you engaged turns the experience into a tiresome ordeal. - 40%
