    What a nice surprise!

    I actually stumbled across this game, had some time on my hands and was looking for completed games. This one popped up, but it was for me like: weird graphics, lesbian only, kinetic novel.... should I even try it or not? I did and - I'm glad I did!

    My short conclusion: great story, characters with soul. And even the renders: a bit creepy at first, but after a short while I really loved them. The animations are also top notch. Yes, it's a bit short. But if it was stretched out more, the gameplay would have been longer, but maybe not as intense as it is now. Also the lack of choices - I kind of didn't miss that. The story is great as it is, adding them in would have distracted from the story rather than helped it for me.

    So everything is perfect? Almost. Maybe a tiny bit too short (would have liked more content with Vanessa). Also, there's no audio. But there is a solution for that.

    All in all, a great little game that I really enjoyed. One of the few games here that I remember for the story.


    A suggestion: as said, the game itself has no sound. If you're not completely against it, I recommend KoGa3's mod, again a great music addon for a game by him. Five stars for that, too.

    My first gut reaction seeing this was how weird the art style was. Not bad necessarily, but still weird. That had me questioning the quality of the game and if it was worth playing, but my love for lesbians overrode everything else so I had to at least give it a try, and that was absolutely the right decision.

    I quickly realized this was a straight up visual novel, with no choices or anything to do but read, which isn't exactly my favorite thing in a game, but by the time I realized it I was already emotionally invested in these beautiful, wonderful, fucked up girls. The writing drew me in. It's real. It's not some badly translated trash (I say that lovingly. I love the trash too) about fucking as much as possible or corrupting people. There's real feeling and emotion in there. Some of it extremely dark, scary, sad, and psychological but that's life. This game doesn't shy away from that, and it makes the sweeter parts shine that much brighter.

    I can tell a lot of love went into this project. There may have been a lack of music and sound, an undeniably unusual art style, and some will put it down for being a visual novel rather than a "game", but what it did have more than made up for that in my opinion. It seemed short but maybe it just felt that way because I couldn't stop. I played through it in one sitting. Could it have been longer? Maybe, but if it had dragged on too long without anything more to say this might be a different review.

    I've played a lot of games through this site and haven't yet left a single review. Say what you will about that, but I did feel compelled to review this one immediately after playing. That should say something. This game is a straight up fucking triumph. I'll absolutely be on the lookout for more from you in the future, Gaerax.

    5 stars immediately! Played it in one go (Chapter 1 to 4) and Chap 1 & 2 are really, really good. Characters are real ( a little too much => Chap 3 & 4) and you get attached to them. Little "downside" is characters trauma. It's very good for character development and all but, for some, it can be a little too disturbing for fapping. Overall a very good game, short yes, but intense.

    Will stay in my mind. Thank you :)

    This is the one that puts a decent amount of realism in the characters and the relationship, so much so that it is possible that this has elements of non-fiction. Some of it does invade the sex scenes a bit (strap on scene) which should be a rightful turn off for many people. Otherwise, the way that the relationship goes and the sexual acts performed does not require a large degree of suspension of disbelief.

    The looping animations are excellent and some of the POV shots are extremely hot.

    Definitely a top recommend for lesbian/female protagonist games.

    I give two stars for the writing on this one. The story itself was a little too simple for me, that's why the lower rating. It's a short game and I feel like that hurts it in a lot of ways.

    Visuals are not my thing at all, the characters look unnatural, and maybe that's the point, but unless you're into that, this won't do much for you.

    It's a short game, so if you have time go ahead and play it, but if you've there is other stuff only your list, save this for later.

    Undoubtedly, the best thing about this VN is the quality writing. The characters have an actual depth, a consistent development and act in (mostly) realistic ways.
    I also don't mind the artistic choice for models. It is easy to get used to while making for a more unique experience.

    If you are looking for a short, cute and kinda wholesome, kinda creepy experience, then this is for you.

    You will meet 2 cute characters that struggling with their personal problems, and you will see how it expressed externally in their sexual relationship.
    Although the models look a bit quirky, there is some charm to it compared to the copy pasted DAZ/HS models in almost every other game. When you add a nice animation to it, it gets elevated and more forgivable.

    Overall, there is something wholesome to this game while the last scene of the game borders on the creepy and disturbed side which left me partly shocked, but we live in a creepy and disturbed world, so I guess its cool. (the game ends on a good note if you wondered)

    I chose this game, because of the tags. I didn't expect 100% lesbian game so that is the first fully lesbian game I ever played.
    I have to say that I am very pleasantly surprised.
    I never really used to care about the story in porn games just FF to the lewd scenes yet it was different with this game. The story is erotic as fuck yet sweet - it was a pleasure to read it.
    The only criticism I have is that the story around the BFF is left unfinished.

    The models are cute as a button with big expressive eyes and gorgeous bodies. The lewd scenes are red hot. The animations are smooth.

    Despite that it wasn't what I expected I had lots of fun with this game.
    Great job all around!

    I'm not a fan of female protagonists games. Because almost all female protagonists games was like some creepy old guys or filthy rich dudes blackmailing and banging female MC. Of course in some games player can avoid it, then it was like skipping 80% of the game content. But this game is not like that.

    I tried this game because of the high rating. I'm glad I tried this one absolutely loved this game. Well this was a kinetic novel about lesbian relationship of two girls shizue and clementine. The story is heart warming and I can really feel their tension. Dev did really a good work in writing. There is no sound in this game but I can really hear the sounds while reading it. Artstyle was unique. And visual quality gradually increased from ch3. Seems like it is finished of course liked the ending. That being said I wouldn't mind seeing more of them.

    Overall I absolutely loved this game. Looking forward to your next project too. Even if you don't like playing female protagonist games just play this one this one was absolutely worth playing.

    I'm saying it again just play this game dude

    Nice story, with good balance of exposition and "utility". Didn't like characters very much, I prefer more functional members of society. But it 's nice that they somewhat resolved their mental issues in the end. Length of the game is reasonable, can be easily completed before one becomes bored.
    3D Models are subpar and even somewhat scary in animations, that why I can't give 5.
    Overall, good job! My recommendation to players and thank you to the author.

    One of the best stories i read in a long time, love the relationship between the two and hope to see more in the future. The only suggestions i would have is the brighten up a couple of the scene that take place in dark rooms because it can be hard to see what's going on.

    The game is really good but feels totally incomplete. Since the day Vanessa ahd a fight with her bf we didn't know what happened and that ending? Is something like "This is just part 1 lad, wait some time and the 2nd one is going to come soon". The art is good and thanks to the mods it was even better, just hearing the music makes it better, if it even had sounds (not talking about being dubbed) it would have been even better but generally talking this one is really good especially if something like this is said by someone (me) who doesn't really like yuris and female prot. Nicely done author, make a gallery too next time, keep it up.

    First thought: The design of the characters is weird. But I still gave it a try. Smooth animations and a wonderful, sad but romantic story with a happy end. The story itself needs to be read, 100%. Don't ever think about to just speedclick through it: You'll miss the game by a lot, and you'll regret it, promised.
    If you liked "A Petal Among Thorns": Go for it. It's a shorter and harder version of it, kinda. Really recommended and was baffled, how much heart Gearex did bring into this game. Dunno what to say...

    P.S.: Since the game sadly won't have any background music, just search at YouTube for some calming, relaxing guitar music: It really fits the theme.

    This is such a beautiful story... Just... play it and fall in love with the characters and the story <3

    The story is the sweetest thing, and chances are you will identify with one of the characters if you have a passing interest in BDSM.

    I loved every moment and just wish there was more... <3

    Absolutely excellent game thus far. Story is HOT while still maintaining it's innocence. Can't wait for the next chapter/update! Hopefully there will be some scenes that include Vanessa in the mix in the future!

    Reviewed version: 0.3.0 (Chapter 3)

    At first the odd looking faces gave me pause, but I'm happy I gave this game a chance. Simply put, the lewds get steamy as fuck, as the MC's behavior vacillates between "I'm straight" and "Beam me into the pussy, Scotty." There's some emotional impact besides horniness as well, because it seems that some of her behavior may be fueled by a dark past. The tentative feeling out of the emotional connection between the two girls feels like there are stormy horizons and sweet makeup sessions ahead.

    So far the number of characters in game is minimal, which is good in my book as it allows the dev to focus on moving the story forward. I'm quite curious to see where this will go. After getting shut down by Valve, the dev could use a little love with funding.

    I was surprised to get into a lesbian VN so much, but the sheer wantonness and emotional connection of the two girls is banging. This VN feels like it's worthy of being finished.

    I almost never rate the games here, but this one is so crazy good. I love the characters and surprisingly the graphics and animations are really hot as well! I hope you continue to make these games. Great story, scenes and characters.

    The characters look kind of ugly and thats the first time and maybe last time that you wont like someting about this game. Why?
    Well, first thing really good storytelling, the dialogue is awesome, the way they kind of connect emotionally, adn one specific scene that sold it for me, which is what i think a realistic scene should be. And i explain:
    Someone in denial of her own desires or her own hearts desires, finds something inside her moving, doesnt know how to act on it, at some point after ingesting some alcohol, gets brave and finally clics. And writer after this doesnt retcon or pulls some stuff to invalidate what happened (i have seen this type of thing way too many times). Instead makes the character kind of conflicted, but since the character is an adult, she faces the issue without false pretexts (to stall the plot) and moves forward wiht the new things learned.

    It can only get better if instead of "some time later" messages we could get the full story of how they keep getting close, but what is being told makes so much sense that doesnt become a problem.
    Its really well written in my opinion.

    The visuals as i said dont look good at first glance, but there is human contact, there is emotion, and good sex scenes that have both renders and animations. Those animations are very good in the animation quality and the fluidity. I wont say it is a masterpiece cause for some people the first contact with the characters can be a shock, and you need to read at least the first 10 lines of dialogue to understand how good the VN is.

    Im pretty picky specially about lesbian stuff and i got convinced, i guess it will have no problems convincing others.

    It feels totally different even if is telling a story that probably other VNS told, but in my opinon is told 10 times better. For me, i dont get this feeling many times, so that is why with all the above i give it 5 stars.

    I'm so positively surprised and impressed.

    Initially I was a bit put off by the art, particularly the eyes as some others have mentioned. But after the first couple of minutes I got over it completely and it actually felt fresh and original having something other than Honeyselect or Daz3d recycled models. It's the artist vision and I embraced it - and I'm glad that I did.

    The storytelling is excellent. It's (very) kinky, it's surprisingly romantic, but it's also really insightful and deep. Usually you just wait for the good parts, but this one actually made me want to learn more about the emotions and the psychology of all characters. It's unusually well balanced.

    Excellent work Gaerax.

    One of the best lesbian KN's on the market by a long shot pretty much anything the game lacks in a little bit of unsettling character design is made up for with great animation and some really heartwarming moments between two of the sweetest characters ever(clems happy squeal is the most adorable thing ever and should be protected by law). is truly wonderful to see so much love in the writing of these two characters and I wish the dev all the best in his work.
