Read MoreNearly three years ago, Square Enix released the visual novel Paranormasight: The Seven Mysteries of Honjo. In his review, DDNet editor-in-chief Matt wrote that it was ” one of the better visual novels that [he’s] played in some time.” Today, Square Enix surprised the world by announcing its sequel, Paranormasight:…
