Wish they’d reconsider

This is a cute story, with decent plot lines, tons of interesting characters and event stories were unique compared to the main storyline. They had so much potential with this game but the downfall can be summed into one word: expensive. Compared to their other games, this game gave no ways for them to earn money without a straight purchase of gems. Some of their other games gave you little sets for events with both real life money or in game gems, a little monthly subscription plan, or even holiday bundles. But they gave up and ended the game too soon. What stories they have currently are still worth a read. But through events and such they introduced tons of other characters with the potential to have more stories, more character development, etc. The main storylines didn’t really give a full look into the characters, and their events really developed their characters more and more. The main storylines didn’t do them justice. I feel like they ended this game too soon without really trying, and it’s such a shame. Here’s hoping that one day they come back to continue to develop this game. If they marketed it better, I think they’d have a better outcome. Overall, a fun game but don’t get too invested because they’ve discontinued it.

Play Court of Darkness instead

I’ve been playing since around launch and this game has a lot of gameplay problems that make it very unkind to free to play players.

You don’t get enough wardrobe spaces for all the event items you obtain and it’s difficult to even complete half of events when you get less than chronically online friends. There needs to be more closet space rewards given in item events because more often than not I have to use premium currency to buy more space before they expire.

The gameplay itself is also somewhat janky. It doesn’t format to newer iPhone styles so it looks like it’s a Barbie game from 2012 with all the pastel colors and constant ui presence. The tap to load is awful.

I haven’t bothered to read more than two routes because I don’t like any of these characters and the events are way better. The events tone down problematic aspects of characters that are on full display in their storylines (Simeon’s panty jokes, Farris), but many are boring, problematic, or rushed due to time constraints.

Overall, I would recommend you play Court of Darkness (aka CoD, also by this company) instead. This game feels like a rough draft of it, so CoD is much better. And if you play CoD, don’t waste your time on this one, it is not as good.

Big issue here-

So uh- I finally got the app after I convinced my over-controlling mother to get it (everything on my device is controlled by her, google is blocked etc..) but uhm when i opened the app it had a webpage open. I don’t believe that was included in the description, When i told my mother to unblock it she said that she wouldn't because thats a form a phishing so uhm.. if you could fix that issue with the game when you open it, that would be awesome. (I wasn't able to play or see any art, dialogue, unless I looked at it on the app store…)

Money

Lovely and cute, I’ve loved the stories so far. I played through Joseph and I thought I was able to go through the alternative story but it made me start all over.
Also, the game is kinda expensive. I am now playing through Luca and can’t make much progress because of the need for affinity points and gems, and all that is pay to get. I can’t afford $5-$20 every time I start a new chapter or new event game. If was a little cheaper I’d be more inclined to buy stuff, and I have paid for gems a few times in Joseph’s story, but I can’t keep doing that with every suitor, it’s just getting to be too much for my wallet.

Gems

I love this game so much! its funny and entertaining but there is one problem... The gems are pretty hard to come by and i will not spend money on them. I wish there were daily login prizes like in court if darkness... please do somthing ab thissss

Just ok

A cute premise, but it’s hard to enjoy when all the characters are either flirtatious or possessive, manipulative, and rude…

Charming game, but…

Overall, the game is okay and it’s more story based, of course. There ARE times where the game makes you make decisions, and there aren’t any pop up ads at all! (So far for me, at least). But then there’s this problem; It would he really nice if there was an option to watch ads to obtain things like Poise Points, Crowns, gems, etc. But there aren’t, making you have to pay for such items or wait for the lessons that take FOREVER to regen.

But i like that im a pretty princess in a grand palace 😊

I love it!

But I’m wondering when the other lobe interests are going to be unlocked…?

Nintendo Switch

Please bring this game to the Nintendo switch!!

Good but room for improvement

Pros: Exciting routes, active fan base, fun events, easy to navigate, routes can be changed at any time without consequence.
Cons: Not free to play, basic features in comparison to older Voltage party games like Samurai Love Battle.
Would love if they’d bring back something like the tea garden and the ability to use coins to progress routes!
