It's pretty rare to find an actually good h-game. I do wish some of the endings were more positive but the game has some realistic roots and sticks with that for the endings.
Story 6/10
A year ago you confess to Maika... who flat out rejects you. Since then you've spent time in the library club with your senior who you've grown to love. You finally plan to confess to her at end of the week. However, coincidentally the girl you confessed to get bored and decides to play a confession game where she and 2 of her friends will try to extract a confession out of you. Each day the girls escalate their attempts but if you survive until the end, then you end up confessing to your senior.
As the game progresses, you get to see a bit more and more of each of the three girls. It's quite nice that they're not 1-dimensional and have unique personalities. e.g. Rin likes books and so you've noticed her around the library prior to the confession game.
For each girl's personality, Maika is mean spirited, Rin is hedonistically curious, and Aoi's approach to love never grew past elementary school (she's mean to you and that means she actually likes you). Ironically Shiori, your senior, has the least personality development as she's not the main focus of the game. You just get along well with her.
The epilogue is a nice touch. Two years later, you're in a sexless-ish relationship with Shiori because both of you are shy nerds. You have a chance to cheat on her with each of the 3 girls, 2 of whom you're now good friends with. Make it to the end without cheating and you got a christmas date with Shiori and break your dry spell.
The story isn't super complex because there's no world ending plot. It's a slice-of-life h-game with 3 very forward girls competing for your confession. It's nice.
Gameplay 7/10
The game dev used RPG maker without including any RPG elements. There's no inventory, there's no sprites, there's no maps that you have to walk around.
There game lasts 3 days where you interact with each girl once a day and the final day where the girl you succumbed to the most has an option for an ending alongside Shiori. Each interaction is interactive where you either get away successfully or jizz your pants. Going through all of the options to see what was available was quite fun.
Again, it's not world shaking gameplay, but this game interweaved h and gameplay. The entire game revolved around h and that's what makes it a great h-game experience.
Art 8/10
Everything was custom art. And I also think everything had custom music. There was good effort put into this game and you can see it plain as day.
I love this art style. There's something about the anime-ish art sytle with the thick eyeshadow that really does it for me.
I liked how each scene slowly progressed forward from mild lewdness to full on lewdness. In other words, each scene was very well scripted and executed.
I would have liked a little more variation CGIs. But that would have required the MC to not be a quick shot (a reoccurring theme throughout the game, though not the focus).
Overall 7/10
I rarely rate games higher than 3 stars. Only actually good games get 4 stars or higher. And this game really belongs up there. From start to finish, this game is a polished experience where h interweaves with gameplay.
I didn't rate this game 5 stars because there would have needed to be more. More scenes, more hotness, more situations. Maybe a harem ending (why wasn't there a harem ending?). But this was still a good solid h-game.
