It’s incredibly frustrating to review a game like Tsukihime, because there is just so much to dig into with its narrative and thematic depth. I want to pull this thing apart piece by piece and examine the characters, dynamics, and brilliant use of language, that the need to avoid spoilers means that I can’t really talk about it. All I can say is that there is so much depth and intensity to the narrative that it works as a piece of literature, and for this remake that’s backed with utterly gorgeous art and presentation that pushes to the very boundaries of the visual novel format. It is such a good thing that we finally have this masterpiece on our Switches, easily accessible and wonderfully translated.
TSUKIHIME: A piece of blue glass moon is a visual novel masterpiece. It was one of the biggest games in the genre that I hadn’t played at all, and I’m glad to have finally experienced it through this remake on both Switch and PS5. Regardless of whether you enjoy Type Moon’s works or are new to the developer, Tsukihime is an essential.

ABSOLUTE CINEMA.
I can count on my two hands the number of VNs I've played in my life but GDI this is a piece of art.
Can't wait for The Other Side of Red Garden.

Tsukihime -A piece of blue glass moon- is not the original Tsukihime. But it is a fascinating update and expansion of the original game’s first two routes. I’ll definitely be looking forward to the second part of this remake, and so should you.
For as many creative liberties as it takes in remaking Type-Moon’s first-ever visual novel, Tsukihime -A piece of blue glass moon- exhibits a respect for the source material that borders on reverence. It feels as though every bit of the game has been carefully and lovingly crafted for the purpose of creating the definitive version of Tsukihime — one in which the shocking narrative developments hit harder, the action sequences are even more exhilarating, and the core story of life, death, and love is all the more bewitching. For fans of the original, it’s not only a dream remake, but a triumphant affirmation to the rest of the world that, yes, we really have been missing out on something special for all this time.
Tsukihime: A piece of blue glass moon is a great entry game for new Type-Moon fans and a fantastic remake for old ones. Though players can dive right in without A Witch on the Holy Night, I do recommend playing that one first if you haven’t! It helps to further your understanding of the story and world. The explanations and narration from Shiki’s point of view make it a really easy story to digest, as new fans of Nasu’s works might feel daunted by how complex the in-universe systems can be. The magic of Nasuverse is on full display in this beautiful remake, and it’s my new recommendation for those who want an action-packed visual novel.
Tsukihime: A Piece of Blue Glass Moon features compelling storytelling, complex characters, and rich thematic depth. Despite minor flaws and oversights, the remake is a must-play for fans of dark fantasy and narrative-driven visual novels.
It’s a long summer’s read, but it may be too intense for some: it certainly was for me.
One of the best visual novels I've played, without a doubt. I loved the story, and the remake compared to the original version is very noticeable. I've only finished Arcueid's route, but without a doubt, I can say it's one of the best I've played in this genre.

Tsukihime Remake was announced back in 2008.
In other words, I've been waiting 16 years for this game.
Type Moon did not let me down. This is one of the most beautiful and intricate stories in a long time. I don't play a lot of visual novels, but when I played the original Tsukihime back in the early 2000's, I fell in love.
Each character is portryaed with psychological depth, Shiki's psychological issues feel real, the characters struggles are relatable.
So far all the changes from the original feel like a step in the right direction, including the removal of adult content.
Nasu has never been good at writing nsfw scenes, and removing it from an otherwise masterpiece **** was a step in the right direction.
Overall, any fans who enjoy reading books (or visual novels) should stop and give this a chance.
If I had one complaint, it would only be that I couldn't get this on my steam deck or play it on steam.
