  While A Summer’s End: Hong Kong 1986 isn’t without its downfalls, I’m glad it exists. The dialogue needs some work, but it’s still a valuable addition to the visual novel genre. Not only because of its awesome setting, but because it’s exciting to see a project proudly and loudly waving its LGBTQ+ story. With two different endings, A Summer’s End is worth two playthroughs – even just to admire the fantastic artwork, music and creative concepts a second time around.

  A Summer’s End – Hong Kong 1986 provides a beautiful snapshot of a love story befitting of the time. With that said, it still feels contemporary and captures struggles which many deal with today. The message it presents is valid for anyone who chooses to play, no matter how they identify. For those who have experiences similar to those explored in the game, however, this will immediately become a treasured title.
