My favourite dating sim!

I love this game, it has an amazing storyline, beautiful artwork, calming and story themed music.

The characters are compelling and diverse, each route gives you a different and distinct view on each character.

This is a game that makes me forget how much time has passed, it’s addicting and fun, I can connect to the characters and actually enjoy the character development and actions.

I love that there are options for pronouns, as a Genderfluid person it makes me feel happy that I have the choice of what I want to be referred as. I also love that you can change your name as many times as you want!

I also enjoy the fact that you can choose your backstory when making a oc/sona, although some backstory is described, it’s still left up to you.

I’ve seen a lot of people complain about how much the coins are to buy or that it gets annoying that you have to buy special options. But I feel like it makes it more exciting, I save up my coins and buy the chapter, it’s like a reward and it makes it all worth it!

Thankyou for making this game, it brings me so much joy, especially when I’ve had a bad day! 🥹☺️
