Going by the preview pictures... the game should be named "The Thinker".

 

[darlic]

Art looks... mediocre at best. Awaiting for a proper review.

 

[mysterious stranger]

I have to ask - what has this to do with teeth?

 

[notamasochist]

Guy looks like he's embarrassed by his chin's shape. Just hoping no one will notice if he keeps his hand there. That, or he is in the middle of shooting a Gillette commercial. XD

I have to ask - what has this to do with teeth?

Haha right? If he turns out to be a werewolf or something, then I guess it makes sense even if it would be weird. Maybe there's a Russian word that uses a sharp tooth as a euphemism and it gets lost in English translation?

If the author meant Cupid and the title of his game is literally a typo, that would make my day.

 

[vengefulspirit]

I think the game would be better if it was about budget Geralt and his construction adventures, rather than Thinky McChinChin.

 

[Oiz]

Why is he always checking his face for stubble? Is he hoping he might grow a beard 24/7?

 

[ThunderRob]

saw the title Cuspid and thought"at least the "bi" is missing" heh

 

[Goblin Baily: DILF]

just the fact that i dont know if this is about the MC or the girls..
if its the girl, then its just a "corruption" ...
if its the MC, then i have no idea how this gonna happen and try to guess.

 

[ThunderRob]

The positives about this game is that for once a dev eschewed any fancy navigation bullshit. Clicking things to get from place to place is about as quick and easy as any game I've ever played. I always scratch my head when devs put who knows how many hours into coding "creative" navigation systems that almost no one wants or likes that just extends the time it takes to move from one place to another. Also, the English translation is surprisingly fine, and stat-building is clear, simple, and easy.

The negatives? There's no direction at all. Or story. Or motivation to continue building stats. Or an interesting MC. Or interesting nPCs. The MC is a blank slate who remains completely blank well into the story game. You go to class in the morning, then go to the mall to work in the cafe to earn money OR talk with people on the street to build your self-confidence. You meet your professor, another student, your landlady, your boss at the cafe, and a girl in the nightclub. Ph, and apparently there's a tourist you meet, but I never did. They are all blank slates, and they remain that way as well. After two weeks of trying to talk to them every day, there's NO change, and also no quest log or any suggestions of what you need to do differently to progress the game, other than to build stats. I had everything over 12 except hacking, which I never stumbled across how to progress. I checked the images, and it certainly seems like the game is just building stats until... something?

The main issue is that there is zero motivation to keep playing. The girls aren't that attractive physically and there's nothing to motivate you to work towards progressing with them for any other reason, since they have zero personality through 15 days of gameplay. I don't mind grindy stat-building games. I like MOTH and Lucky Mark and games like that. But I stopped playing after about 45 minutes. Not out of frustration--the game is "fine"--but simply out of boredom. If interesting things happen because, I dunno, you finally get 20 self-confidence points...?, maybe I'll check it out later.

I think he's holding his mouth closed so he won't throw up ,the game is that bad.

Maybe that's the genius new way of building suspense in the paying/supporting patrons???
