fun game, but…
this game’s fun so far, but the English translation is not very good. It can be confusing, and inconsistent. Pronouns are especially inconsistent, many characters are referred to as ‘he’ and ‘she’ at different times so I have no idea what Drossel’s gender is. I know Japanese doesn’t use pronouns and that example isn’t a big deal to me, but in general the story can be hard to follow. I’d love to buy the Golden Lantern package but I currently don’t think it is worth it as an English speaking player.
Please find someone to fix the English translation! I really like this game and I want to support its developers but right now it is difficult to justify paying for a game that isn’t very enjoyable.

One of their best games imo
This game had a creepy vibe, but kept me interested the whole time. The plot twist gad me bawling my eyes out and everything that I had read up until that point and being SO confused, all made sense.
SPOILERS
As others have stated, the MC had a relationship with the lord of the castle all along and lost her baby to a miscarriage, and went crazy over it losing her memory. A lot of people see to be disturbed by the fact that she married a man and had sex at 16, but as people should know, in the olden days, it was common for girls to marry at 16. I was just taking this as a hint that this game is set in the olden days. It sure looks like it in the game. So because I am seeing this game in timeline where this kind of thing was acceptable, it didn’t bother me. The MC didn't appear to upset by any of this too. She loved her baby and looked like she loved the master. They loved each other so much, they both killed themselves so they could be together with their baby. I lost i5 at the end and am still crying.
Aside from the English translation not being very good and lots if typos, overall I thoroughly enjoyed this game and think it’s one of SEEK’s best games. And I’ve played quite a few if them.

It was fantastic until….
So overall the story was really interesting. The mystery kept me guessing and the characters were unique. The art was very well done too. But I’m sad to say the Love Nest ending really killed my vibe. Or rather it was more what came directly before it that did me in.
*******Spoilers below********
I’m so sick of writers making the conscious choice to have a romance between a literal child and a grown man. Seriously, she was 13 when she met the master who instantly had feelings for her. He then bought her, groomed her, and married her once she turned 16. He got her pregnant at age 16 too. For anyone thinking 16 is old enough, I remember when I was 16 and I was 100% not mentally mature enough to be called an adult. It would have been easy to make her older or him younger. Or figure out some way to have them meet at a different time if they were the same/similar age and the master wasn’t yet old enough to make such a purchase. Either way this ruined it for me. In this day and age you’d think we’d be past the trend of having young girls romantically involved with adult men but I seem to be finding it in this type of media often lately. Just, why?🙄😒

Amazing
The story line. The art! Everything was amazing. I cried the ending is shocking..
a very good game, except for 'the thing'
i really enjoyed playing this game and i almost feel guilty for doing so. the plot had wonderful twists and turns you can least expect and memorable characters that enhanced the story. they are extremely interesting and unique, including the MC herself whose plain character gives her a sense of identity.
i played through this whole game (all endings plus the epilogue) in about 8 hours. it's not at all difficult to obtain energy since you can watch ads as many times as you want to gain candles. it takes time to grind for this item, but it's really the only item you really need unless you want the extras. skipping through the text can be a bit of a problem especially when replaying, but it's not that big of an issue to really get in the way of enjoying the game.
-spoilers ahead-
the only thing i didn't enjoy was the explicit implication that the mc and the lord of the castle had a relationship with each other when she was very young. it felt very uncomfortable to have that truth revealed during the last three endings. i understand that it is a dark themed game, so i should expect that there are very dark themes involved. however, i think that a warning should be given out to anyone who is interested in playing since this is a possible trigger for people.

Good game with bad English
The game itself is well-made but texts are unnatural

Great except for “that”
===SPOILERS BELOW===
The whole.... guy buying a 13 year old girl to groom to be his wife thing really just kind of grossed me out. The whole time, I had this really weird feeling of sexual tension or something between the two, but I was like “No, she’s just 17, he’s an adult who paid to bring her from an orphanage.” But oh no, I WISH he bought a 17 year old from the orphanage to marry. Yeugh.
