Mediocre, but fun
Worst thing about the game is by far the protagonist. He's introduced as this middle aged degenerate who couldn't get anywhere in life, and presented as a wannabe womanizer who happens to be too ugly to score. But upon going back to the past his flaws of character basically get reduced to that of a horny teenager.
Worse still, he's a horny teenager only in so far as the story needs him to be, because as soon as it is convenient he is suddenly a very charming, thoughtful person whose allegedly shit life still gave him whatever skill he needs to impress the girls around him in any given situation.
It's a bad way to build him up as a likable protagonist, especially because not enough happens to endear him to the player.
Apart from that, the game is fine. It's as tropey and cliched as you probably expected from the tags.
The girls are kind of generic but they're developed ok.
The dialogue is good, even if there are many instances of broken english. It does constantly tell the reader directly what the girls are thinking mid conversation, which I particularly dislike as a crutch, but it's not too bad.
All in all a solid 3/5
