《奧林匹亞的晚宴 Catharsis》是由Idea Factory旗下品牌Otomate製作的女性向戀愛冒險遊戲《奧林匹亞的晚宴》的續作，官方網站已於近期公開，並釋出世界觀及角色設定的首波情報。作為系列的延伸作品，本作延續前作的色彩幻想世界，但在故事深度、角色互動與情感描寫上都有更大幅度的進化與擴展。

故事背景仍然設定在由神祇創造的孤島「天供島」上。在原作中，社會由三種色彩階級構成：【青】控制魂魄回歸天上的力量，【黃】則擁有傾聽神意的能力，【赤】擁有被詛咒的血脈與土地，而主角奧林匹亞則擁有稀世之色【白】，象徵罕見與特殊。玩家將從她的視角出發，經歷尋找靈魂伴侶的旅程，探索愛與信任的意義。在續作中，故事發生於前作事件兩年半之後，一名白髮男子意外流落島上，他曾被認定已死，但奇蹟般甦醒，將逐步顛覆島上既有秩序，牽引並揭露島上居民的「詛咒」，為原本穩定的世界帶來新的衝突與變化。

在劇情設計上，保持系列一貫的浪漫奇幻風格，融合色彩幻想與情感深度，著重刻畫角色間的心理互動與內心糾葛。除重新遇見前作中的主要角色，如朱砂、玄葉、璃空、天草四郎時貞、緣與火向等，也能透過多分支路線探索他們各自的故事背景與情感發展。遊戲劇情以日常互動與特殊事件相結合，交織出人性、愛情與命運的糾葛，強化玩家對角色的情感投入。

操作上，延續傳統文字冒險（Visual Novel）玩法，透過選擇不同的對話或行動來影響劇情走向與角色關係，決定故事分支與最終結局。遊戲中所有主要角色均全程配音，並由松岡禎丞、杉田智和、島崎信長、上村祐翔、內田雄馬、堀江瞬等人氣聲優演出，使角色表情、語調與情感變化更加細膩生動。此外，本作在立繪表現上採用細緻的動畫效果，透過微表情與動態演出強化角色互動的臨場感，玩家可以透過這些細膩的表現深入了解角色心理與情感層次。

市場方面，由於前作在女性向戀愛冒險玩家群中口碑極佳，續作自官方公開以來便引發高度關注。玩家與媒體對於劇情深度、角色回歸與豪華聲優陣容的期待值極高。系列老玩家特別關注主要角色延續的故事線以及對世界觀的進一步擴展，而新玩家則可透過前作世界觀的簡介與續作的教學模式快速融入，享受戀愛冒險與奇幻設定的結合。評論普遍認為，遊戲以細膩的互動劇情、精美立繪及全語音演出，成功營造出沉浸感強烈的戀愛體驗，對喜愛女性向文字冒險與幻想題材的玩家具有高度吸引力。

整體而言，《奧林匹亞的晚宴 Catharsis》不僅承襲前作的浪漫與奇幻魅力，更在情感描寫、劇情深度與角色互動上進一步強化，使玩家能夠體驗到既溫馨又帶有神秘色彩的愛情故事。無論是重視角色劇情與情感投入的戀愛冒險玩家，還是追求世界觀與幻想設定完整性的玩家，都能在本作中找到沉浸感與獨特魅力。

"Olympia Soirée: Catharsis" is the sequel to the otome visual novel Olympia Soirée, developed by Otomate, a brand under Idea Factory. The official website was recently launched, revealing the first wave of information about the game’s world and character settings. As an extension of the series, this installment continues the vibrant fantasy world of its predecessor, while evolving further in story depth, character interaction, and emotional portrayal.

The story remains set on the isolated island of Tenguu Island, a land created by the gods. In the original game, society was divided into three color-based classes: Blue, who control the power of returning souls to the heavens; Yellow, who can hear the will of the gods; and Red, cursed by their bloodline and land. The heroine, Olympia, possesses the rare color White, symbolizing rarity and uniqueness. From her perspective, players experience a journey of seeking a soulmate and discovering the meaning of love and trust. In the sequel, the events take place two and a half years after the original story. A mysterious white-haired man washes ashore—someone once thought dead, now miraculously revived. His presence gradually destabilizes the island’s established order and reveals the hidden “curse” of its people, sparking new conflicts and changes in their world.

In terms of narrative, the game preserves the series’ signature romantic fantasy style, blending its vivid color-based mythology with profound emotional storytelling. It emphasizes the psychological dynamics and inner struggles between characters. Players will reunite with key figures from the previous title—such as Junsui, Gen’ya, Rikuu, Amakusa Shirou Tokisada, En, and Hiromune—while exploring their stories and emotional growth through branching routes. The plot weaves together daily interactions and extraordinary events, delving into themes of humanity, love, and destiny, and heightening the player’s emotional investment in the characters.

Gameplay continues the traditional visual novel format, where choices in dialogue and actions influence story progression, character relationships, branching routes, and endings. All main characters are fully voiced, featuring a star-studded cast including Yoshitsugu Matsuoka, Tomokazu Sugita, Nobunaga Shimazaki, Yūto Uemura, Yūma Uchida, and Shun Horie. Their performances bring nuance to each character’s expressions, tone, and emotional depth. The visual presentation has also been enhanced, with refined animated illustrations that use subtle facial expressions and dynamic movements to heighten immersion, allowing players to grasp the characters’ psychology and feelings more vividly.

From a market perspective, the first game received critical acclaim among otome visual novel fans, and anticipation for the sequel has been extremely high since its official announcement. Both players and media are eager for the expanded storyline, the return of beloved characters, and the impressive voice cast. Longtime fans are especially interested in how the characters’ arcs will continue and how the worldbuilding will expand, while new players will be able to catch up quickly thanks to an accessible introduction to the original’s lore and tutorial systems. Early impressions and commentary suggest that the game successfully delivers a highly immersive romance experience, combining intricate storytelling, beautiful artwork, and full voice acting.

Overall, Olympia Soirée: Catharsis not only inherits the romance and fantasy charm of its predecessor but also strengthens its emotional depth, narrative complexity, and character dynamics. It offers players a love story that is both heartwarming and shrouded in mystery. Whether for those who value character-driven emotional arcs in otome games, or for those who seek a richly constructed fantasy world, this sequel promises a captivating and uniquely immersive experience.
