I was really disappointed with this visual novel. In my opinion, the story was somewhat flat and predictable, though it had its funny moments. For example, the carrot incident, which is immediately cut off by the game over.
Speaking of which, the game gives you little to no freedom and forces you to take on the role of a character you know nothing about and guess what they're into. Sure, these choices are made fairly obvious by adhering to some humble hero standard, but doesn't that just make it less exciting? And if you make the wrong choice, you are sent to the beginning of the stage (which makes sense since you are in a game, but is still annoying as crap).
Also, the art was actually painful to look at. There were few instances where I saw any of the characters as attractive, and it was really only the princess.
I had my doubts about this VN to begin with, but seeing all the praise it was receiving as well as it being one of the few visual novels in the app store, I decided to buy it. After playing the VNs "Scar of the Doll" and "Moe Cure Net" for both a dollar each, I may have had high expectations from more expensive novels. "Kira*Kira" and "Tears 9, 10" were able to satisfy, but this just didn't seem well worth the price to me. Sorry.
3/5 Would not recommend.
