Reviews:

“The early '10s-teenage-summer-beach atmosphere and the amazing soundtrack create the perfect setting for the themes of friendship, love, growing up and moving on. In general, I am a huge fan of the whole 'cute things turn scary' trope, but please understand that this game is so much more than that. I don't mean to compare, but if you're a fan of DDLC, you'll most likely enjoy Siren's Call.”

“This is, hands down, one of the best visual novel experiences I have ever been through, if not the best. You absolutely will not know what you are about to witness when you play this. Every character feels alive. You will grow to care about every one of them, especially the main character[..]Everything in this game is treated about how it should be in real life, making for a realistic experience that really sits with you.”

“Siren’s Call: Escape Velocity is a thoughtful coming-of-age story wrapped in a slow-burn mystery that artfully tackles its themes and cleverly takes advantage of the possibilities of the visual novel medium. Come for the thrill and atmosphere and stay for the heart.”
9/10 – Nook Gaming

Story:

After a summer of deadly fights with supernatural creatures known only as "Sirens," you and your friends finally have time to relax and enjoy yourselves. But in the wreckage of a job well done...it's become obvious just how fleeting their time with you actually is. Even so, it's your job to say goodbye to each of them and go to college. It's your job to be an adult.

Still, it's five of them versus one of you. And after years of friendship and an entire summer of fighting side-by-side, these people know exactly what it takes to make you want to stay home...for just a bit longer.

A game that's designed to make you as unsure of yourself as humanly possible, Siren's Call takes full advantage of every aspect of the visual novel format to deliver a mind-warping storytelling experience. Can you get the "Hell" out of Florida? Will you reach Escape Velocity?

Developer Note: Runs fantastic on Steam Deck as well! So you can be cozy while being trapped in Florida!
