Unity - Completed - Love n Life: Happy Student [v1.1.0_2] [Reborn Entertainment]

3,5/5
There isnt enough h-content here for how long the game is. but there are 2-3 high quality scenes.

Im still giving 4 stars bcs there are multiple gameplay systems here with which you engage.
From backpack battles, the foreplay mini game from WAKUWAKU games they shamelessly copied or a by the books fishing and cooking game.

Presentation is good but the game is to big to keep installed on your drive for what it offers. *shrug

A chinese knock-off of a popular genre, made with AI art. The game has too many bugs even now, though the devs are releasing regular fixes for it, which is good to see. The story is pretty ludicrous. NASA is the bad guy. But with these types of games we don't exactly expect a Scorsese epic. It's not the worst story I've seen, but it is very much Chinese (anti-American, China is a utopia, etc...). The UI is pretty bad, even for these types of games. The inventory system is the worst I've ever seen in any game. They did recently release an update to address it, but it's a half-step. The voice overs are not great, and very repetitive. One of the girls has a really annoying puppy voice that just... ugh.

The AI art isn't terrible. Some of the scenes are pretty hot. But there's just not enough of them. In this current state, the game is a pass for me. Lucky Teacher, the studio's other game, is far better. Maybe in a year or two after several updates, the game would warrant another go, but for now... much better alternatives out there.

Love n Life: Happy Student [v1.0.4]

The game has important bugs that make it impossible to advance in the game, such as not being able to advance in relationships with girls.

It's a shame, the game promised, but as it is it doesn't deserve more than this, I don't recommend it.

At the time of writing this review, the game contains numerous bugs. However, as far as I understand, the developers are actively working on fixing them, so this might no longer be an issue in a few days or weeks.

Here's a brief overview of what to expect from this game:

it's 50% a visual novel with no real branching. Yes, the character can choose the order in which to build relationships and which stats to level up, but the player has absolutely no choices — neither on a global scale nor on a local one. It's a kinetic novel. The story is dull and narrowly focused, and it evoked no emotions in me except fatigue.

40% of the game is combat in the form of “Your social skills vs. your opponent’s social skills.” It’s actually done quite interestingly and is fairly well-polished. I wouldn’t say it’s a breakthrough in game mechanics, but I personally found the first 2–3 hours engaging enough to play around with it.

10% of the game is sex scenes. They’re visually appealing, bright, and juicy... but completely devoid of emotion, character development, or even fetishes. Moreover, the sex scenes are extremely detached from the core gameplay and serve more as a "gallery" for the main game. In the end, you could say that the sex content feels like a very small DLC added just to boost sales.

(Just to be clear, here’s what I saw: each main heroine has 8–15 sex scenes, 3 main heroines, plus 4–6 additional ones. Each scene has two buttons — fast and slow — and an orgasm meter. The sex scenes have absolutely no impact on the game whatsoever.)

Conclusion: As a family-friendly game with some erotic elements to enjoy for an evening or two — maybe. As an NSFW game with deep character development and meaningful sex scenes — definitely not

this review is for the demo version of the game.
to start out with i will say the art and game concept are great! the art on the gyaru style girl (forget her name) was what originally drew me to check this out! now im not sure how long the demo was supposed to be but there was a lot of stuff i felt like i was missing because i either couldnt find a way to progress or i had so little energy to work with it became a juggling act.

i felt like sleeping didnt give you enough energy back to do anything! +40 energy restored out of 100 for sleeping? unless there are ways to increase the energy you get back later as the game goes on this is gonna be a huge hurdle! i also chose easy difficulty but found that after the first few wins in "socialize" i was getting my but kicked... on easy!! this might be fixed with a few adjustments to the items. the big one i can point out is items that expand your deployment area for other items are not specified as a base item that expands the box zone! those items also show up less frequently than other items so you end up buying an item and not being able to use it because you dont have a large enough are to put it in! i had to eventually buy an item that gave me a shield every couple turns to be able to finish the objective of getting the girls affection to 90!

once again i dont know how long the demo is supposed to be but i never ran across any lewd scenes and eventually got stuck when it told me to raise my intelligence to 30 but when looking at my stats it said i had to read books or make smart choices to raise my intelligence! i never ran across either of those things and was unable to upgrade any of my stats! maybe i missed something but idk! another quest i was stuck on was fishing for the teacher! it wanted you to collect 5 fish and i had way more than 5 fish but couldnt figure out how to give them to her to finish the quest! at that point i just figured i had done all i could and gave up!

i want to like this game and i realize its only a demo but going forward these issues are gonna be things that will put off a casual player! if some of these things are tweaked and made easier for the player to manage then i can see this being a pretty good title! right now its a bit difficult to get any progress going and thats my experience while playing on easy! playing on hard must be a nightmare! keep at it dev! i hope this gets polished up into the gem it could possibly be!
