The Girl of Glass: A Summer Birds Tale
Join Kristal as she sets out on her journey to better understand herself and the world around her in a point and click adventure game, featuring turn-based combat and hand-painted environments. The Girl of Glass is set in a fictional mid-20th-century European country ruled by a tyrant eagle. You play as Kristal, the girl of glass, who is struggling with growing up, letting go of the past, and finding a future to believe in. On your journey of discovery, you will visit numerous places and meet a wonderful cast of characters to interact with – all in very detailed, hand-painted graphics. The Girl of Glass tells a charming coming-of-age tale with its unique characters, beautiful settings, and many dialogue options and choices that impact the story. You first meet Kristal at a circus where she is slaving for an ungrateful circus crew. One day a boy arrives and convinces her to run away with him. Together, they embark on the adventure of their lives. But it seems every road only leads her closer towards an inevitable confrontation with the eagle.

This was a perfect game for me, I really enjoyed the mix of point-and-click, visual novel, and turn-based combat. That last one was a bit tough to figure out, but once you get started it's easy to pick up. This is a game with a lot of deep cuts and social commentary - it's a game that makes you think. All-in-all, I would recommend because I personally enjoyed this game, and I think there's something here for everyone to relate to.
