Game version: [v0.20b]
A sometimes quite charming game that stumbles over its own convoluted systems and despite appearances features shockingly little player choice.
The game does a great job with its pretty unique setup and with giving you multiple interesting girls to pursue. Unfortunately, the MC is just another wet blanket, no-face, horse-dicked schoolboy and you basically are given no choices as to how you interact with anybody.
The only actual choices in the game seem to be which girls you meet during any given time slot to increase your relationship points. It feels like a poor sandbox formula crowbarred into the VN format. The fact that the dev integrated the walkthrough mod into the game feels like an admission that the game is unplayable without it. But even the mod doesn't actually fix the problem. Figuring out which combination of girls you can pursue at the same time during a single playthrough is some kind of rocket science because "well, at this time slot you can get this important scene for character A, but also these minor scenes for characters B and C, while the scene for character A can be pushed back for X days, but this other scene is only available at time point Y. Also, you need X points by week 2 to not have that character's storyline end. Good luck."
That's not even mentioning the fact that every girl has certain other girls that produce extra scenes with both of them, which require that you keep both of their points up, which means if you like a certain girl and want to see all of her scenes you basically just have to slavishly follow a walkthrough and pursue girls you're not interested in.
Mind you, all of these systems exist in a game that literally has the most natural setup for a harem storyline of all time. You have to cum in as many girls as possible to save the world (yes, this is the plot of the game, and it's actually handled in a pretty funny, self-aware way.) I'm not even that much of a harem fan, but it's so fucking weird to have this extremely exclusionary system in a game about wanting to fuck as many girls as possible.
Sex scenes are another disappointment, they are uniformly bland and painfully vanilla. They're also incredibly short and while the writing in the rest of the game is actually pretty good, the writing during sex scenes falls off a cliff. Some sex scenes are literally a) she puts the penis in her mouth b) she sucks it once c) she sucks it twice d) "TIME TO CUM!" This is a personal preference thing, but the language used during sex scenes is also incredibly weird and inconsistent, waffling between lame poetry ("womanly flower") and vulgar ("cunt.") I personally like vulgar, it's just weird when it's mixed in with something from a 14-year-old girl's diary. Well, more like a 14-year-old girl from the 1920s.
In general, the game is just too wholesome, from the "nice guy" MC to almost every girl being shy and sweet (even the ones who are cunts, because you just have to be nice to them long enough, then they'll transform into being sweet too.) It just ends up very same-y and boring. Can't have a girl who's an arrogant cunt, we have to cure her with our dick and by being a nice guy. Also can't have a dumb bimbo, she's just faking it because she's actually the smart villain. But also, we can't have a villain, because she was just forced to be the villain and we can still rescue her and fuck her. The further you progress into the game the more all the girls meld into the same character and get more boring.
I liked Jules when she was an arrogant rich bitch. I liked Penny when she was a clueless bimbo. But we can't have those things, every character has to become the same vulnerable/shy/sweet waifu. I understand the trope of "taming" the bad girl or whatever, but it just feels like all the interesting edges get sanded off, and instead you have "well, this girl is technically an alien/robot/immortal, isn't that neat?" No, not really, you don't actually do anything interesting with that. All of this is also complemented by the terrible choice of playing sad/sentimental music during every sex scene. This game really has zero sexual energy. It actively works against you getting horny. I really wanted to like this game and I did enjoy some of the characters before they got hit with the wholesome-hammer, but overall it's just a chore to play, and the sex scenes are a disappointment.
