“Good game, nice few story ways and endings, sure that could be more, but its fine for 2-3 hours to find all little paths and ways and what big or little changes they bring. So its a short game and some speaks you want…”
“Pretty interesting and exciting interpretation of Goethe's Faust. Every choice you make really matters so it isn't boring to replay this game over and over to see everything there is and unlock all achievements, though…”
“Soul Gambler is a really fun and short visual novel which is a modern retelling of Faust. The novel follows on Faust. He works a boring job and has a mundane life, but all of that changes when he sells his soul to a…”

“Well, there have been quite a few well documented issues with this game that persisted for way too long, such as the white screen loading issue. I am happy to report that this has finally been addressed with what I…”
“That gypsy lady reminds me of Yzma (Emperor's New Groove) lol Anyways! The story was interesting and the different choices certainly had you involved. However, being one that wants to get 100% of the story and…”

“An intriguing and magical choice driven visual novel. We make choices with our life every day but for Faust he makes choice with his soul. Think your soul as a type of currency and you can use it to make magic happens.…”
“Great Visual Novel game. You can explore and build your own fate at your own. This game has a good concept about soul and destiny. I really love the idea about spend pieces of your soul to achieve something that…”

“A nice short game. Played two playthroughs for just under 2 hours. I bought it @ 90% off and I enjoyed it. Another good thing is I finished a game this month!”

“Do I like this game? Yes, I do. I spent enough time goofing off with it to make it worth the investment, and I have had friends play it while over and like the play. I also got it VERY cheaply, so that helps. Do I…”
“6/10 Pretty decent game! I'm not really in to visual novels, but I enjoyed this. Is pretty short and relatively easy to get all achievements, plus the story is interesting. Pros: Good story. Has different endings. Cheap…”

“Interesting story with interesting twists, turns and reveals. Many different choices which leads to many different out comes. Really likeable. Only sad point of the game is that it is too short and and the story supporting pictures need a bit of more work to make it even more…”

Games that reinterpret classic books usually end up…”

The story telling in this game is quick enough to not get bored with a lot of conversation that you have no influence over, but deep enough to have a good time through several playthroughs.”
