Lyanna is a meager young woman with a streak a bad luck: due to a series of unfortunate events she ends being sold into slavery. However, after a failed escape attempt, she meets Joseon, a mysterious one-eyed swordsman with a golden armor who buys her freedom. They then start a journey to go back home that will lead to several strange encounters with various monsters, a ghost ship and many other incredible adventures.
Story of Innocence is a classic story-driven Rpgmaker adventure and rpg with puzzles, stealth sections and many locations to explore, for hours of adventures. It's a pity that this is just a demo, but for the rest we have a really well made classic rpg with many maps and lots of edited assets and custom animations.
WARNING: remember to disgregard the tutorial! It makes the game crash!
Random Fact: unfortunately the story of the second protagonist, Fiona the Commander of the Maridan Knights, was never implemented. The game was in fact supposed to have two different protagonists and storylines, that could be selected after starting the game.
Final Verdict: this is another good demo that can provide hours of fun. It plays like a
typical jrpg game but the narrative is excellent, mapping is amazing
and the gameplay is classical old school rpg with some neat features.
In the end there are really few things I can complain about this game (I was not a big fan of the ghost ship part for a couple of reasons, including some questionable mapping choices, but maybe it's me, the overall quality is still high). Probably if it was completed it would get more since it's the kind of memorable rm2k3 game from a talented maker that rarely happens. Try it yourself, I'm sure you won't be disappointed...
PS: I don't know why, maybe it's me but Darius reminds to me a lot Gaius from the Way series by Lun Calsari: they both are magically inclined mysterious warriors with blue hair (nearly identical hairstyle) and clothing, and also the name is quite similar. But yeah, this may be just a coincidence.
