So, let me just start with this. The game is damn near a masterpiece. There is really only one complaint, which I'll talk about below, but its minor compared to the overall game. This is now easily my #2 game, behind only Acting Lessons, and I simply cannot wait to see more. That being said, lets move on.
Plot --- The plot is excellent. Well thought out, and through the current release, well executed. You get some backstory to start, enough to entice you, but not enough to annoy you. Throughout the game, that story gets expanded upon. Again, never enough to take you from the game, but enough to make you want more. As you (the MC) develop into who you are meant to be, its not some magical overnight change. You figure out your role in the world through effort and time.
Graphics --- Superb. I will not try to pretend that they are the absolute best in the industry, but top 10%? Easily. The girls look beautiful. The scenes are well constructed. The locations are detailed and expansive. But more importantly......
Animations --- The animations are amazing. Again, I won't say its the BEST, but damn if its not in the top 5 games overall. Beautiful. Well crafted. Dev obviously spent a significant amount of time not just with the planning, but with the execution. There are small touches added that add to the realism, that even the top people sometimes forget.
Gameplay --- So, you actually have a choice from the start. You can either do Sandbox, or standard VN style. I'll speak to the Sandbox side, as that is what I played. It was fairly standard. Interface was good, and the tutorials were brief and relevant. There are a significant number of items in the game, most of which you don't need until quite far into it. There is SOME grind, but its easy to push through. For money, the Dev was smart enough to include a built in method to get cash without having to grind for it. I did SOME of the grind, but yeah, you're going to be using the "cheat". Guaranteed. Also, it has a built in hint system. You don't need a walkthrough. If you are lost, it'll tell you what to do next.
Characters --- The women in the game are FANTASTIC. All characters look appropriately aged. Each has their own unique personality. Backstories are in depth, and develop throughout the course of the game. There are two characters in particular that you WILL become emotionally attached to. And I (like apparently 75.2% of other players as of this review) desperately hope we won't have to make a choice between.
And that brings us to the ONE negative. And I say negative only because it feels like the Dev tried, but didn't quite have the heart for it. The game audio. When I first opened the game, just at the opening menu, I knew IMMEDIATELY I'd be joining his Patreon. You'll know why when you play it. But then, upon actually starting the game, I was immensely disappointed when all music/audio stopped. Throughout the remainder of the game, there is audio added back in, but its hit or miss. There is ONE track that gets played in EVERY sex scene, which gets old after a while. Really wish the Dev would spend just a little time working on this aspect. Audio is incredibly important in games, especially one like this that is meant to be dramatic.
So yeah, you want to play this game. I am happily becoming a supporter, and can't wait to see what comes next. So long as the dev doesn't make me choose. DONT MAKE US CHOOSE!
