NAIRI: The Tower of Shirin takes us to a fairytale world inhabited by people and intelligent animals. The player takes on the role of an aristocratic girl named Nairi. The heroine gets into trouble by messing up with the cat gang and discovering the conspiracy surrounding the mysterious Shirin Tower. Rex, a converted criminal who has become a scholar, and many other colorful characters help her get out of trouble. The whole story is kept in a humorous and fairy-tale tone.
NAIRI: Tower of Shirin is a classic visual novel in which plot is conveyed through dialogues enriched with 2D portraits of characters. However, the title has elements of a logical game and point-and-click adventures. Each location visited by Nairi is shown as a single illustration. Players can interact with elements of the environment by selecting them with the cursor. You can collect and combine found items and then use them at selected locations. There are also various kinds of puzzles.
NAIRI: Tower of Shirin has an intriguing graphic design, combining the style of typical fairy tale illustrations for children with cartoon drawings. The world's projects are inspired by Middle Eastern cultures. It is worth noting that all dialogues present in the game have no voice-overs, so while playing, we have to rely only on the text.

GamePitt: 7.9 / 10 by Rob Pitt
I really enjoyed my time with NAIRI: Tower of Shirin, it felt like an interactive storybook with delightful puzzles. Visually, this game is up there with the most artistically beautiful games of the last 12 months yet it also has a decent selection of unique and interesting puzzles to help it stand up as a great game to play. I had a few mild annoyances with the UX such as the lack of a map/fast travel, no interactive highlighters, and it’s rather easy to accidentally click to move to another screen, but I still felt compelled to move on and venture further into the story. Despite the lack of voice acting, NAIRI: Tower of Shirin‘s narrative is funny and witty along with the overall story the further into the game you get. Don’t be put off by the lack of voices though, use your imagination and make the characters sound however you imagine them to sound.
