It's a game that could've easily been 4 stars, but ends up being 3 stars due to corners being cut.
Pros:
-The FMC and her companions are all pretty hot. Plus, their bodies are drawn in a surprisingly realistic way (smaller boobs, boobs don't look like watermelons but kinda like water balloons), which makes them more attractive
-Translation is pretty decent. Didn't see any engrish or MTL from my memory
-There's an INSANE amount of customization. Outfits, bras, panties, socks, accessories, titles, tattoos, tanlines, nipple size, etc. It's genuinely hot to mix and match her outfits, and polishing this alone could've made this game 4/5 ALONE.
-WASD compatable. It's default. Hot DAMN.
-The overworld is standard JRPG, but indoors is this interesting sidescrolling 2d pixel. It's honestly kinda nice.
Cons:
-I would argue that the customization is one of the strongest points of this game, but you need to individually look for each piece of clothing and hairstyle. Where are they? Sparkles around the map, and in the drawers/cabnets of the houses. Does the game tell you the latter part? No. I accidentally discovered it by accidentally spamming spacebar while inside. Even then, for the majority of the scenes don't really care about what outfit you wear, and default to the event outfit, your default outfit, or being butt naked.
-The "game" is flat out multiple choice trivia. This game taught me about Hitler's speech, unironically. There's no punishment for failing the trivia, but you DO need to redo everything, which ends up making it feel like a hurdle in front of your CG. There's an option to turn it off in your inventory, and I heavily recommend you do so.
-Nearly all NPCs use a default avatar, even if they have a special portrait. So, the boss of the underground gang looks EXACTLY like the henchman he's standing next to.
-The game has no sense of direction, making the entire game feel weird. Some CGs are highlighted with a heart, but some only appear when you talk to an NPC...and since all NPCs look the same, it blows. Plus, the game doesn't even tell you the general area of things. The main and biggest example is when you talk to a fortune teller (this game's version of a guide) and she says "go to cathedral zone to talk to the tailer!", but doesn't tell you WHERE cathedral zone is. I assumed cathedral zone was next to, you know, the CHURCH, and ended up spending around 20 minutes in the wrong part of town.
-The game's fps dips HARD when you enter houses. Goes from a smooth experience to glitchy controls. At one point my game lagged so hard after entering a tent that I had to save and reload my save to continue playing.
-It's extremely inconsistant. The FMC and her friends are all angels, but don't bat an eye about sex. However, they all later talk about how their sense of chastity is loosened due to the city. HOWEVER, the game lets you walk around naked from the moment you start the game. HOWEVER, there are CGs where the FMC complains about things saying "I can't wear that! That's too exposed!". It's a "corruption" system, in the same way pornsites have a foolproof gatekeeping by asking if you're older than 18.
All in all, could have comfortably rested at 4/5, and even a 5/5 with polish and thought...but it seems as if the CGs were made first, and everything else was made a brief afterthought...which is a shame, because I did enjoy the little bit I did play.
