I'm still siding with those that say the 1 star reviews are ridiculous (and probably dishonest). In what universe would this game deserve the worst possible rating ?
That's the thing about community ratings systems: Everyone has their own scale. You have your definition of what the stars represent, and other people have theirs.
If you had each star represent the quality of writing, renders, story, gameplay, and fappability, what would this be worth? The writing is in serious need of a proofreader, so no star there. The renders are good, so there's a star. The story is an absolute mess, junking what started out as promising for a bunch of garbage diversions that confuse almost everyone. I'd give it a negative star for that. Gameplay would probably be half a star for being a VN with little in the way of player interaction. This game isn't jerkoff material and it just had a Christmas update with no lewd scenes (seriously misunderstanding how most devs treat holiday specials), so no star for fappability. I'm even tempted to give a negative star for making us watch the MC fuck a crack whore in that one update, but I'll be generous and give it a half for scrapping that plus having fuckable characters.
Total: 0 + 1 + -1 + 1/2 + 1/2 = 1 star!
The other thing is that the ratings are supposed to help other users know whether they should waste their time on it or not, so for some people the 1 star reviews are helpful. When you download an app, don't you check the low reviews first to make sure you're not installing some crap you don't actually want?
