Welp, this is a thoroughly disappointing game... I suppose that to an extent, I should have expected this from OneCoin given their other works... but still. As always, they took an idea that's somewhat popular for a quick cash grab and didn't really have a particularly impressive execution for it....
What do I mean by that?
Well, the only quality thing about this game is the art. Everything else is garbage.
First of all, its island survival stuff is as basic bitch as it can possibly get, to the point where for the most part, odds are that they just used pre-made plug-ins and didn't need to change much if anything. Second of all, you have a time limit that you're not told about until you run into a specific bull, and it's a short one, 20 days to be exact... when what's basically the tutorial that limits your movements and whatnot takes 4 days and you only gain full autonomy on the 5th... Then there's the fact that every character that can pursue Meryl, including the MC, only have 5 scenes each...
Worse yet, the way the action for the "bulls" progresses is by going to sleep away from the base while Meryl is left at the base, or by having MC's stamina reduced to zero when Meryl is at the base... Now, that'd be fine... except, you pick what happens then. There's no specific interactions. No gameplay, nothing. It's just "do you want the dude to get cucked? Pick who cucks him~ We threw in a random Futa too for no particular reason". That's it. The NTR in this game isn't so much avoidable as you have to go out of your way to find it at all...
Why do I say that?
Because once you grasp the mechanics of the game, there's absolutely NO gameplay reason to every sleep at camp or have stamina reach zero without Meryl. There's no reason to not take her with the MC every time as is, because the game conditions you that you can only meaningfully interact with NPCs when she's around anyway, and there's the random date spots too, so why leave her at base anyway? At least on the 1st playthrough anyway. It's not like there's any reason to leave her back, because Meryl doesn't do absolutely anything if left alone. Not that she's useful with the MC once you're recruited all the bulls, but still, you won't know that the 1st time you play.
However, it's worse than that. MC's stamina is only consumed when going between areas far enough from the base, with consumption increasing depending on the difficulty of the terrain. So forest eats up 50 per transition, Mountain eats up 80, volcano cave eats up 110. All well and good... except on top of that, resources respawn every time you clean an area, go to a new one, then come back... Which means that you can pick up stuff that lets you restore stamina over and over even in the non-stamina consuming place, build up a huge amount of consumables in short order, go to the more advanced areas, repeat as much as you like.
You can literally finish the game on the very day that you gain fully autonomy in, which is to say, Day5, without needing to sleep the night at all.
On top of that, sleeping away from the base, with or without Meryl, is pointless, because sleeping in camp doesn't restore stamina anyway... and Camps have a function that lets you teleport back to base at no stamina cost anyway... and then you can teleport back to camp too, again, without any stamina cost... It's just so UGH...
You'd think at least the NTR or whatever would be satisfying... but it's not. As I said, there's only 5 scenes per bull, and worse than that, the 5th forcibly ends the game, giving you a half-assed ending of sorts for no reason... This means that the build-up is basically non-existent, there's no repeatable events, there's no proper corruption, there's... nothing really. It's all just plain stupid. I suppose the scenes are decently hot enough if you like the art and whatnot... but that's all I can say about it.
The translation is also meh, it's Saikey after all. It's passable, but as a commercial product, it has its issues... and the fact that they're visible in such a tiny game says a lot.
Oh, and... There's no full gallery unlock that I could find, so if you want all the scenes in a single gallery, you need to replay the game at least 6 times and the tutorial a 7th time to have them all in the same journal!
"Fun."
Ugh...
Honestly. It's like no one who takes this idea knows what to do with it. The only game that I remember that tried to do anything interesting with the whole NTR Castaway thing was that old Gal Wife game... at least that one gave you reasons to pair the sloot with the bulls and stuff.
I suppose it's not a horrible time-waster or anything. You can get some material out of it at least and it's not hard to set-up a save that lets you do any of the bull's progression up too and including the ending whenever you want... However, it's still pathetic and it could have been a much better game with only a little more effort and a little more polish.
But nope. It's just a cheap cash grab. I suppose I should have expected this from OneCoin... :|

Huh... I didn't realize that that was a thing... Is it mentioned in the readme or something?
Granted, I will admit that after a point I wasn't trying very hard, given how weak the game was... I'm still at least somewhat curious about where this is communicated.
I actually don't know. Maybe the dev's blog? I only found it by opening the game in RPG Maker
Android Ver. gets/keeps crashing whenever I try to access the menu. Saying that its having a problem loading face3 of sort

I will never understand how it's so hard to believe that people get offended by the concept of cheating. And yeah i get the "don't play an NTR game if you don't want NTR" BS, but just because a game has NTR, doesn't mean i have to participate in it. That's the part of it being a game as opposed to a book or movie, it might have cheating in it, but if someone doesn't want it, they can just not do it. Like Mass Effect for example: i romance one person and there's zero cheating in it, but i've seen some freaks that somehow romance 5 characters in one PT. I fucking hate drama like that and try to avoid it as much as possible, if a game lets me be a sweetheart and romance a sweetheart, most likely i'll fuck with it. And the weirdos that want to build a harem and step on people's hearts/get stepped on can get their fix too. But "avoidable" is important for an NTR fan too, because everything is SO MUCH better when YOU choose to do it, rather than the dev feeding you a linear script.
By the way this game has VERY avoidable NTR, you literally have to intentionally lose for it to happen. Doesn't change the fact that all your fiance needs to betray you is you not being home. So just never let her out of your site and you'll be good... like a fucking toddler, or a wallet. But it's rare to see an NTR game where you get NTRd by a woman, so it gets a +1 for that.
