This was an interesting game. When it started I wasn't sure if I was going to like it at all, especially with that model for the player character who is honestly very distracting, but as the game progressed he sort of faded into the backround a little more and it didn't feel like I was piloting a meme model on rails. I liked most of the girls and despite some of the back and forth i've seen I actually don't mind at all how the relationships progressed.
What I do mind is the fact that this definitely feels like what should be the part one of a multi-part game and I worry whether or not that will actually happen. I think there is a lot more to explore, with your girls but also with the dynamics that would come from them all starting to interact with each other. We get little pockets of girls who are connected to one another or get introduced but by the time we get to the ending which if it had been 10 minutes shorter would have been the equivalent of an end scene jump scare we don't really have a ton. They all are just existing within their own bubbles for the most part within their group.
Not to mention the driving force behind our characters revenge and what not just falling flat and being wiped up almost like an after thought. I don't even mind that part so much, there are other games with huge overreaching plotlines to enjoy, whether it was on purpose or not I think there is potential to continue off from the darker plotline to one that is more light hearted and far more involved with all the girls you have gotten involved with. Hell take it down an xfiles monster of the week type route where you continue to actually work as an agent but you are getting into weird hijinks and slowly all the girls get involved with your weird out of pocket job assignments, it would certainly make for an interesting box to play in.
I think in its current state if I knew for certain that nothing was coming after I would technically give this 3 stars, it kept my interest and I enjoyed my time with it, but the ending really knocks it down. But I don't know for certain if this is the end, so I will be optomistic and give it a 4 star because I think this could be a good launching off point for more.
