A good story based visual novel with some unique gameplay mechanics.
98% of the game is story with 2% being adult content. It is a slow burn and very verbose game. The game is literally like reading a paperback novel. No attempt is made to summarize things and keep the plot moving. The characters just won't shut their mouths.
Only a few of the sex scenes are animated. The first sex scene you'll encounter in the game is with Emma which is animated and then most of the following sex scenes just use pictures. Teasing animations and then pulling the rug out from underneath the player was a poor decision IMO.
Most of the sex scenes in the game are short and lackluster. I thought that only three sex scenes were done well - two with Emma and one with Lea. The story is the emphasis with the game and the sex scenes seem to be an afterthought. The player has to go through pages and pages of dialog to get to the sex scenes and then the majority of them are disappointing!
Most of the character models have these weird black lines on them. The black lines are mostly in the character's outline and shadow regions. It was quite distracting to be honest. The breasts aren't drawn well on the female character models. The renders seems to be low resolution which results in grainy skin too often. The faces on the character models are good and detailed and then the bodies are the opposite.
I do like the unique skill system used in the game but it is often too restrictive unless the player enables easy mode.
The game is designed so that you have to play through it multiple times in order to see all scenes (by making different choices and choosing different skills). No way in HELL am I going to play through this game a second or third time! After chapter 2, the verbose dialog and slow story progression were too annoying.
Overall, the writing is excellent and the story is solid!
There are plenty of English mistakes throughout the game, however most of them are minor.
Lea constantly blue balls the player to the point of frustration. Every time things start getting spicy, Lea says that she needs to leave. Groundhog day over and over again with Lea.
Brilliant dialog and banter between the MC and Emma!
There are some choices throughout the game but most of them just change the dialog and if a scene is enabled or disabled.
If you choose the wrong alcoholic drink, some scenes with Deb are disabled later. I was very disappointed with this gameplay decision.
The hottest girl in the game IMO is Olivia and she is mostly off limits until the end of chapter 6. I only found one scene with her.
The story is good but some of the choices that the MC makes pulled me out of immersion. Some of the story elements don't match the direction and choices that I would have made. This is normal with most games but this was especially the case with this one.
If you love reading and a good story, then I recommend this game. If you are here for the adult content then I would look elsewhere. All the reading you have to do to get to the sex scenes isn't worth it IMO. The sex scenes are then rushed and most of them lack animation.
In summary, a long verbose story with a little bit of adult content thrown in. As a novel, the game succeeds in spades. As an adult title, it fails miserably.
