Hi Loren! Can you tell me more about these games? I really think my granddaughter in Georgia would really like it. She is 17 and loves all things anime. Art is her passion. She will be turning 18 in October and i think one of these would be the perfect gift. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Hi Katy! Absolutely! If she's an anime fan, then this one, Koriko, might be perfect for her! You can pick it up here: https://heartofthedeernicorn.com/product/koriko/?v=24d22e03afb2

Another game that I adore, and has a similar visual aesthetic, is called Colostle, in which you tell the story of an adventurer exploring a massive fantastical castle. It's really lovely: https://www.colostle.com/shop

For both of those, the main gameplay is through writing, but many people take it upon themselves to draw the characters and settings inspired by their gameplay--she'll get tons of inspiration from them. And there is a community of people online who share their artwork inspired by these games, too.
