The story kicks off quickly, without much explanation, but you can pick up the gist fairly easily. At first, it’s impressive — you can tell a lot of care went into the plot, dialogue, and world-building. The writing is strong, with believable characters who have distinct backgrounds and motivations. Interactions feel meaningful and add depth, making the early game genuinely engaging.
Unfortunately, this doesn’t last. What starts as a promising, lore-rich experience eventually becomes a slog. The developer leans far too hard on the “novel” aspect of the visual novel, saturating the story with endless new characters, facts, and conflicts. Instead of being immersive, it becomes exhausting. While the characters are well-constructed overall, with distinct personalities and realistic goals, the sheer amount of content makes it difficult to stay invested. If this were a book, it could’ve worked — but as an adult game, it drags down the experience.
Choices exist, but not in a satisfying way. They mostly affect how the MC approaches problems and can influence the story’s direction and endings. However, given the game’s overwhelming length, testing different paths isn’t appealing — the replay value just isn’t there. And despite the extensive narrative, the number of actual player decisions is surprisingly limited, which makes the imbalance between story depth and interactivity even more glaring.
Visually, the game doesn’t stand out. The characters are decent but not remarkable, and while they’re easy enough to tell apart, remembering who’s who in such a large cast becomes tricky. There’s a good variety of wardrobes, expressions, and backgrounds, but repetition becomes obvious the longer you play. On top of that, the chosen aesthetic sometimes works against itself: brightness and visibility issues occasionally make it hard to tell what’s happening on screen.
Sex scenes are particularly disappointing. They’re sparse, unremarkable, and lack animations. When they finally arrive, they don’t feel like a reward — just more static renders with the same flaws as regular scenes. Given the adult-game context, this is a major letdown.
This game is ambitious but ultimately undone by the developer’s choices. The extensive length, heavy focus on lore, and limited interactivity overwhelm what could’ve been a strong experience. There’s clear effort in the writing, world-building, and character creation, but it feels wasted in a format that fails to capitalize on its strengths. For an adult game, the lackluster visuals and sparse, forgettable sex scenes only add to the disappointment.
Based on everything:
Overall Score → 5.1/10
