This is a Japanese modern fantasy adventure game/visual novel.
Featuring gorgeous artwork and great voice acting, the story unravels as you join the journey into the world of Ley-Line.
Koga Michiru is a newly enrolled first-year student at a academy with a notably large clock tower located deep in the mountains. Unfortunately, on his first day of teachings, he gets caught up in some sudden trouble and accidentally breaks an expensive-looking statue.
In order to compensate for the broken statue, the principal orders him and the boy who caused the incident to work for the school’s “Bureau for the Investigation of Special Affairs.”
When they arrive at the Bureau’s headquarters, a room situated in the academy’s enormous underground library, a girl is waiting for them there with an apathetic look on her face.
The girl informs the confused pair of the situation: Magic exists in this academy.
When the clock tower chimes, the “Realm of Night” appears, and merges with the school building. The Bureau’s job is to take care of the supernatural problems that arise. And so, Koga struggles to protect the school from troublesome magical items known as “Mists”…
- Full Japanese voice acting featuring talents such as Moriya Misono, Kawashima Rino, Kadokura Souichi and Moka Choko
- Branching storyline points, allowing the player to seek new routes each playthrough.
- Artwork by prolific industry artists Pero and Urabi

This is being written after only finishing this visual novel and not its two sequels.
A Clockwork Ley-Line: The Borderline of Dusk suffers a bit from being the first chapter in a series of visual novels. They spend a good amount of time setting up an interesting world and characters, but there is very little payoff in this title. Music is good. Story is fine but a bit basic. Nothing too surprising happens. There are 6 decent H-scenes present.
Really there's not a lot to write home about in this title as it is just a setup for what I'm hoping is more interesting sequels. Because of all that I'd recommend picking it up on sale if possible, unless you're really interested in the premise.
Wil suck you and make you keep on reading til the end, wising for more !
Lucky its got 2 sequals ;)
The game is visually pleasing, has good audio, and has decent writing. I'm not sure it was worth the $20 but it was fun!
Starts out a bit slow, but really holds it's own once you get on the "true route." The art and music are pretty damn outstanding, and I feel that the writing is solid (not perfect, but good.) One nice bonus, the voice audio is aimed toward the side of the screen the character is on. just a nice little touch.
Actually digs into a few magic situations, and explains the school's inner workings... kinda.
The audio commentary for the BGM is really neat.
MC is not the typical clueless jackass, and his bickering with classmates is entertaining.
Downsides:
the side routes are really short. I did enjoy Tsubaki's route.
the game is buggy - time doesn't track properly in Steam without using "leyline-localizer" - it's in a pinned comment somewhere. Also, if you are skipping ahead a lot, save FREQUENTLY because the game likes to crash.
No cloud saves or achievements.
Mooko's route ended up a bit ... non consentually. I didn't care for that, I feel that she deserved a more delicate outcome.
R18 content is available from .... Denpasoft, I believe. It's free. Heavily pixilated.
Overall, I enjoyed this installment and will play the followups.
The principal has the most annoying laugh ever.
