Описание
Перед Тобой стоит женщина с изумрудно-зелеными глазами, осведомляющая Тебя о том, что Ты Хозяин этого дома, а она Твоя Служанка. Однако Ты совершенно не помнишь, кем являешься – и даже не уверен, жив ли Ты.
Служанка приглашает Тебя совершить путешествие по безжизненным залам особняка, дабы Ты мог узреть бесчисленные трагедии, что постигли его обитателей. Она предполагает, что среди них Ты, возможно, сумеешь отыскать Свой след.
Первая дверь ведет в 1603 год.
Это эпоха непревзойденной красоты, период расцвета театра и искусств. В саду, где играли неразлучные брат и сестра Родс, пышно цвели розы, и пускай казалось, будто им неведомы тревоги и раздоры… но не всем их счастье было по душе.
Вторая дверь ведет в 1707 год.
В эту эпоху особняк пребывал в руинах, принимающих в своих стенах чудовище. Хоть оно и утверждало, что жаждет покоя, но пройдет немного времени, прежде чем Бестия поддастся своей врожденной жестокости и учинит массовую резню.
Третья дверь ведет в 1869 год.
В эту эпоху стремительно развивающихся технологий люди никогда не стоят на месте. Хозяином особняка является амбициозный бизнесмен, который инвестировал средства в железнодорожную промышленность. Однако одержимость богатством и властью приводят его к пренебрежительному и жестокому отношению к собственной жене.
Четвертая дверь ведет в 1099 год.
Служанка говорит Тебе, что это последняя история. В этой эпохе Твоему взору предстает юноша, утверждающий, что он проклят и девушка с белыми волосами, зовущаяся Жизель, которую заклеймили как ведьму и приговорили к смерти.
Став свидетелем этих четырех трагедий, произошедших в разное время и в разных местах, теперь Ты волен выбирать, завершить Свою историю здесь и сейчас… или же двигаться дальше.
Но кое-кто скажет тебе:
"Ты смог их вынести, только потому, что они не были Твоими трагедиями."

this game ruined my life and im not even joking
I played this game on Switch and honestly if you have a chance play that version. Switch versions improvements really works great on it. That being said you can very well play this version too without issues and believe me you absolutely MUST experience this story.
"It's time to let go, Morgana."
10/10 very personal story to me.
Letting go does not always equate to forgiving; yet perhaps with letting go, you can set at least one person free, someone who deserves it most—and that is you.

I am now emotionally broken... thank you
peak writing. bawling my eyes out
Peak fiction
one of the best stories imo, i read this back in 2018 and until now i still shill it to anyone who'd listen. without fail every single person who i got to finish this game also love it
One of the best novels if not the best novel I've had the pleasure of reading.
1000/10
I was so impressed with this game, so I replayed it maybe 4 times. I feel this story like it`s real. And I must say, that I kinda felt this story because from my childhood I felt like I really forgot something, like from past life. Like I also need to find someone specific, the special for me.
Also I cried a lot, but not for fourth door. Beause it was lie. And it felt like really sad story, but jut story. (for the first time I didn`t notice Morgana speach). So it was great also in this way. Perfect manipulation with my feelings about this all.
The music is stunning. Two songs (Bianco o nero and sanctus) was in my top of the year in spotify last year. And I was in 1% of listeners of spotify account novectacle.
There were only one thing I disliked but it didn`t have much influence on my impression. However I must say it, and I hope that creator will give me the answer if it as so importan to make Jacopo kinda ped o file, cuz even since Morgana acted so adult like, 10 years gap and he fell in love when she was like ???twelve??? this excuse not helping o understand why at least not 16 and 20, and if Morgana died at 20 or 12 and 16, still strange but more understandable. It would have sense. Hower, I kinda feel bad for Jacopo and hope he and Morgana will be without so big age gap.
Also my story can feel kinda unreliable since I bought it only last week and had just 15 hours in it, but the answer is simple. I played pirated version. Even since it was time when in society piracy was kinda normalized and I didn`t even consider other options, no I feel kinda bad for it and I want to apologise before whole team of creators. In my defence I ned to say that I also bought this game last year for one my friend and I will buy for another tommorow or day after tommorow to another. Firstly I felt important to buy it at all, because this game too good not to pay for i and secondly I wanted to make this game even more popular, because it worth to be one of the mos popular visual novels ever.
I am really big fan of it because it touched every string of my soul. I would like to say it personaly, but since I have not this possiility, I`ll say i here. Thank you. It helped me in my life to come through really dark hours. And sorry again that I played pirated version. I know I could not o say this, but I am really feel bad.
Me: So how much depression is in this visual novel?
NOVECT/Hanada Keika: Yes
Absolute cinema.

this game looks bright and hopeful <3
the apogee of story writing
The game is good at drawing out emotion, but all of the characters are very frustrating
except Morgana . I do understand that is part of the point, however the game tries really hard to evoke a sense of sympathy in the reader for characters that did not feel earned at all.
None of the game's endings felt satisfying to me.
great story, worth it

Pretty much the best visual novel I've ever played with amazing visuals, a hauntingly beautiful soundtrack and multiple dark, compelling stories with an overarching narrative
(Also the best intersex character I've experienced in video games since Kainé nier)
Absolute peak fiction! Characters, writing, suspense, story is all top tier! I recommend this game heavily
the best story i've experienced across any medium of fiction, just play it.
thought it would be a vampire yuri but this was pretty good as well, dont know why the game made me play e1m3 of quake before every chapter. (oh wait thats cause quake rules and I would open it up to play it). If you love men kissing women and stuff like that this has one (1) moment of that, and a whole lot of sad stuff that made me cry.
Can't describe how beautiful this story is. I've tried VNs before but none were able to pull me in quite like this and I feel way more open to the genre as a whole after this wonderful experience.
This story is a tragedy connecting 3 seemingly different stories together and building up one of arguably the best casts I've ever laid eyes upon, I doubt I'll have the pleasure of reading a story like this again any time soon so I will say thank you to Novect for this amazing masterpiece. It is a little bit slow at points but it's unfathomably brilliant in nearly all other aspects and I would recommend this unbelievable experience of a visual novel.
i will never procrastinate again

Absolute Masterpiece.
Disorganized thoughts after just reading this:
This is not only a masterpiece of a visual novel, but a masterpiece piece of fiction. If you take a step back the story is simple and not overly complex or convoluted but it is conveyed in such a masterful and beautiful way, with characters that have deep and complex motivations and personalities. While there are tropes present, they are not used as heavily and they are not as exaggerated as those in other works. After reading this, you might start looking at characters from other works of fiction and consider them one dimensional in comparison to the characters in Fata Morgana. The plot and the characters are such a breath of fresh air with how deep and genuine they are, and the writing is so good it makes the writing of other visual novels and especially video games look juvenile. There are also disturbing or dark topics that are handled in a very mature way and are treated with the seriousness and gravity they deserve.
The pacing is also excellent. Many visual novels have a problem with pacing and end up bloated and filled with unnecessary padding. This is not the case here. The beginning can be slow but the scenes are absolutely necessary and not there to waste your time and you come to appreciate them later on. This is why this visual novel is much shorter than other works which can be as long 80 plus hours. You should be able to read through the story in around 40 hours. I took longer because i'm a slow reader. It is much shorter than other visual novels and yet it can leave as deep if not a greater impression on you than much longer works. That is a testament to the quality of the writing.
Finally, the aesthetics are exquisite. The music, the character and background art the text boxes, the font, everything. every visual and aural design choice has had so much love and consideration put into it and they are all consistent and match the themes and Gothic aesthetic.
11/10
Words cannot describe how much I love this game but I will try. This is probably the best story I have ever read. The characters have such depth that I am never bored no matter how many times I replay this game. The music is amazing, the art is great, you will not regret playing this game.
House in Fata Morgana is a masterpiece that deserves your attention. I hope that you are blessed by this game as I have been.
10/10
i went into this game going. theres no way its as good as what everyone online says it is. well im here to say that it in fact very much is. this is an incredibly good vn, and despite the slower start, i promise the initial investment is worth the final pay off
Without a doubt one of the best stories ever written. I don't think I need to say any more than that.
Seems like I'm in the minority of people who didn't like this VN. I really liked the beginning - it had a dark atmosphere and raised a lot of questions that made me ask myself "What is this place? Who is the main character? Who is this maid?".
But after the first two chapters (a small portion of the game) I started getting annoyed. The writing is extremely verbose, with uninteresting conversations taking much longer than they could. For some reason when one side in a conversation doesn't say anything, the character's dialogue would often just say "(...)" which you need to click through to continue. At several points in the story I started wondering why I'm reading something that feels like it belongs in a rom-com rather than a mystery or a darker work.
The resolution to most mysteries and arcs felt extremely unsatisfying. I more or less guessed how the first chapter ends after reading it for a couple minutes (though I kept hoping the VN wouldn't go that route). The second chapter was also predictable, but included an unforeshadowed twist that would make it more tragic.
The game's approach to revealing important characters' backstory are info dumps - you won't get them piece by piece with an opportunity to fit the pieces together yourself in the meantime. No - you'll sit down and listen to the characters as they tell you their history from birth til' now.
And the sad thing is that this continues until the end of the VN, until all mysteries are resolved and there is nothing else to see. It doesn't help that some of the main characters feel bland and lacking any sort of personality (maybe aside from being "nice" / yasashii)
On the plus side, the music is quite good. "Hex" is really beautiful. "Ciao carina" made me stop for a while and just vibe to the tune.
game good
How to make The House in Fata Morgana:
Take a few handfuls of pain and suffering
Mix it with misery and agony
Sprinkle some anguish
Simmer for a few hundred years
Top it off with a tablespoon of sorrow and torment
Delicious.
Pacing problems but overall I like it

This bad boy can fit so much trauma in it
The arrival of spring is always silent, quietly bringing vitality and hope.Everything awakens from its slumber, and the sound of flowers blooming can almost be heard, the most delicate whisper of nature. The entire spring, until summer, is a season of vitality and romance. There is abundant rain and wind and the sun and moon are bright. At that time, the fields are filled with joy, and the sky is filled with the spirit. The beauty of spring is also in this, in innocence and bravery, in being untouched by the world.
As the season progresses, this vitality becomes more and more intense, as if every inch of land, every flower and every leaf is proclaiming its existence to the world. The arrival of summer transforms the whispering of spring into a passionate song. The wheat in the fields rolls and tumbles, the fruit in the orchards gradually becomes heavy, everything is growing and advancing towards the light.
In the alternation of these two seasons, we see the spirit of the nature, which is undaunted by difficulties and perseveres. Every living thing tells the story of survival in its own way, showing the strength and beauty of life. It is a journey of growth, a journey of finding oneself and surpassing oneself in the face of wind and rain and sunshine.
Therefore, when we walk in the fields full of energy or look up at the clear night sky, our hearts are touched by this infinite vitality, and we learn to cherish our own lives and all the beautiful and strong lives in the world.
Very good.
Stalled on it several hours into the game. Came back months later and am grateful I did. A story about faith, remaining true to yourself, and understanding and forgiving others.
Our Father,
who art in Heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
is cool
I tried playing this game multiple times but I just can't stand it. I don't like the music, the dialogue rambles on endlessly about nothing and there's not any kind of hook at the start to make me even a little bit interested. Or are anime girls who call me master supposed to be the hook? I want to give it a chance, but it is too painful to try and sit through when I could be playing something else. I wish I hadn't put this on the back burner so that I could still refund it.
I wish I could sing praise for this to people outside the visual novel medium. It perfectly captures a theme of "Love that transcends time", and produces a compelling narrative that explores the intricacies of human emotion and persistence of love throughout each of the time periods and various fates of the respective characters. It masterfully intertwines that Gothic suspense with the deep narrative. Weaving each chapter into a rich tapestry of interconnected stories that progressively heighten towards the latter chapters.
The soundtrack is phenomenal and attributes to the experience immensely.
Even without voice acting, The House in Fata Morgana is a testament to the medium's storytelling experience.
It is definitely something that will leave a lifetime lasting effect on me.
Masterpiece
God didn't rest on the seventh day, He wrote The House in Fata Morgana.
One of the best visual novels ever created.
Before starting playing install this patch https://steamcommunity.com/app/804700/discussions/0/3805031043418019522/
You will thank me later
i wish i could wipe my memory of ever reading fatamoru just so i could experience it all over again
The second door (especially the beginning part) and some early interactions with the maid created a unique mystery experience. But the rest of the story developments were easy to guess and stereotypical of the genre. The dialogues and narration were unnecessarily verbose and usually unconvincing. I could tell what the author wants me to feel but the writing wasn't creative enough to accomplish that, like it keeps talking about pain and despair but the situations that arise weren't complex enough to get emotionally invested into. The villains of the stories were mostly portrayed as simple and narrow-minded people so the tragedies didn't have much weight or didn't feel fated, hence no despair (except for the second door which was complicated by the twist).
Context: I also had problems with Umineko being verbose but I was pretty invested in it.
