Suddenly, in October of 2022, they announced there would be no more updates, but the game would still be available to play. November 20th, my iPhone updated, and I was locked out of the game. This made me mad, because I had paid for features and items that were unused, and didn’t even get to finish out the monthly bonus I paid for. Sloppy way to close out a game. My review would have been 5 star had it not ended in such an abrupt way. ### 4/5 — Great characters 👍 *2022-07-27, version 1.24.1* Nice characters, they each have a backstory that makes you curious. Was a little surprised that this game doesn’t offer two or more choices during the story. The mc could be a little annoying at times (personal opinion) but, overall it’s a nice game. ### 4/5 — 🧍🏽‍♀️ *2022-02-06* Good game ### 4/5 — It’s a great game, just get ready to grind a lot *2021-12-31, version 1.21.1* Pls make diamonds easier to get :( ### 3/5 — please help lol *2021-11-11* While it’s still and always will be an amazing game, i’ve noticed quite a few mishaps and glitches. i’ve recently been getting doubles upon doubles of cards i only bought once, and there’s been times where a character says another characters lines. it’s probably just a mistake or a twitch in the coding or something, but it’s still caused me quite a stir. i’ve gotten a total of approximately 230+ of the same cards, and still more. i hope this issue is resolved quickly, while i’m getting money from exchanging the cards i’m losing patience. do hope for updates in the future and love the effort so far. ### 4/5 — Cute game..💕 *2021-05-21* I actually think that Kuya looks like Kuroo-(just the hair-style..) also, I like the game, but I read that there is no Romance. Even tho I wish 😅😅. Btw, Good Game! :> (Im still new T_T) ### 4/5 — 👍 *2021-03-28, version 1.16.1* I like this game a lot, even though they have yet to release the Book 1 (Night) I care about and thus the romance route I want (Yakumo); my main problem with it, is I really hate MC, and that they don’t let you have any dialog options, or your own character. They force you to do and say things you never would, and I totally disagree with MC’s choice like 95% of the time. It is basically just a book you’re reading, AUs of the same girl’s life. edit, spoilers for Book 1 (Night): Having now read the book I was waiting for (although the romance routes have yet to be released) I can say I agree more with the dialogue put into your mouth as MC, however I still wish there were options, a little permutations in the plot— especially if they could manage not to divide it up into routes but let you play with all the guys as potential mates that you rule out through your own choices/interactions/intimacy scores/whatever system they’d like to implement. They have been hinting, mostly through snippets delivered outside of the story (for example Facebook posts) that Yakumo may be a darker character than he lets on, however if what the story seems to be implying (spoilers! that he is the doctor experimenting on ayakashi), this would be the writers pulling a D&D from Game of Thrones on us, Daenerys-style. Everything’s been so curated so we only got hints and never actually interacted with anything but a facade, if so, and I think that’s weak writing. Let the villain/anti-villain be themselves the whole time, let the readers be thinking, ‘I can’t believe I never put the pieces together’ not ‘where did this come from?’ It feels like the writers had an idea of where they wanted his character to go/the role they wanted him to play, and then wrote a character that would purposely mislead us from guessing at his true nature. Of course, this is conjecture, they could take the story in an entirely different direction than they seem to be.. On the cons I’ve seen in other reviews: if you log in daily, you actually accumulate diamonds very quickly, as for every event they usually have 25 diamonds as the final login reward, and then for each patrol you can get 9 diamonds once you unlock the patrol dialogue and the different challenges for that patrol; there’s usually 5 patrols per event, meaning you earn upwards of 70 diamonds, and that’s not even figuring in event rewards. I’ve never once paid to participate in this game; I do sometimes not have enough diamonds because the amount needed for draws is so much (250)— so even if you have 1000 diamonds, that’s only five 10 card draws. But you do get binding bells and those can sometimes be used to get the card you want if you didn’t get it while drawing new ones. ### 5/5 — Its good *2020-11-02, version 1.10.0* Not gonna lie this game is good in its own way and i love it so much but one thing is a prob here, i wish that you would add more platforms for sign in just like love365 where you can use email and all. And overall this game is so much fun, thank you ### 5/5 — 👍 *2020-11-02, version 1.10.0* Stan Koga ### 5/5 — Hooked. *2020-10-30, version 1.10.0* Bruh. I cannot say how much I love this game >”< hdsjhssjdjsj this is the best one I’ve ever played. The storyline is quite good. It’s all very interesting and I can’t wait to level up. I will always stay true to my Oji uwu ### 4/5 — The struggle is real *2020-10-25, version 1.10.0* Leveling up has to be one of the hardest things to do in the game. But the story is just to good.😤😖 ### 5/5 — I love it!! *2020-10-08, version 1.9.0* I love it very much!! I just started but it's definitely a favorite of mine!! My favorite characters are Kuro, Gaku and Kuya! Well so far! ### 5/5 — Beautiful cards design and lovely logical stories *2020-10-06* Really lovely game with the nice interface. I like reading the stories because all of them are well structured, logical and have the finished idea. Also, there are lots of different evens and it’s possible to play old events that were released earlier, so if you start playing only now there is still a chance to obtain previous cards. <3 Thank you for your work guys. I will buy diamonds to support you ;) ### 4/5 — Русский язык *2020-09-07* Добавьте пожалуйста русский язык 😊 ### 4/5 — Add a gender chooser *2020-09-07* A option to choose your gender would be nice for the gay pepole,the graphics are great and i love the story! ### 4/5 — Daddy issues *2020-09-03* Make the father a love interest ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I could not even get into the game *2021-05-31, version 1.17.0* When I tried to start a new game it tells me to put name and username put every time I put something it just keeps saying it don’t know, am I doing something wrong or is it just the game?? ### 1/5 — E *2021-04-23* I’ll play when I can be with the teacher. ### 1/5 — No sound *2020-08-25, version 1.7.0* There is no sound ### 1/5 — Жесть *2020-08-08* Почему нельзя перевести на русский?так се преложение((( Стимуляторы сейчас очень популярны , но нет перевода на русский,очень плохо... ### 1/5 — Why can’t I skip man cards!!!! *2020-08-01, version 1.7.0* I haven’t even gotten to the main game or even the prelude because of this. I uninstalled the app once because I didn’t like what I got and even the second time as well. I don’t wanna have to keep deleting the game and reinstalling just to try to get the team I would like. Please add a skip option at the beginning. Does say I can ‘choose’ ten cards, but then doesn’t offer that as a choice. Highly disappointed. ### 1/5 — Could Change if problem is fixed *2020-06-08, version 1.4.1* After the latest updates to the game, it has continued to crash. It is a fun game but I am unable to play the way I used to because the game reconnects or goes to the title page so often. I hope they can fix this problem because it would get a higher rate from me. ### 1/5 — Hey! *2020-03-21* Portuguese, please!!! ### 1/5 — Diamonds disappeared! *2019-12-19, version 1.0.10* I just transferred my acc from another device and I saw that all my diamonds disappeared! 300+ diamonds gone in a second! Please solve this issue! I’m very disappointed! ### 1/5 — Português *2019-08-26* Queria em português ### 1/5 — Meh *2019-06-20* Not really an otome game, quite boring and repetitive. Uninstalled. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love this game *2026-01-14, version 1.24.1* Please keep this game up permanently, this has been one of my favorite games for the past six years! Highly recommend to everyone ### 5/5 — 😭 *2025-05-28* Saudades desse jogo 😭 ### 5/5 — Amazing *2022-04-09* I stopped playing forever a lot of the set up has change but the stories the illustrations are as good as ever!!!!! Beautiful and enjoyable to read still getting used to the new stuff but it amazing! And yes it makes us go get the keys (tickets) to read the story but it’s worth it as you keep the story after you don’t have to go through the trouble again^u^ ### 5/5 — Best story line that’s free *2022-03-08* I don’t do many reviews on phone apps. But this game is honestly so fun. You don’t need to spend money ever if you don’t want to. You still get the same amazing story lines and fun love outcomes. Each love story with each character has its own unique adding to the main story. I honestly didn’t expect that I thought for sure it be like most and keeP it basically the same but with different guys. But nope it’s amazing app :). ### 5/5 — This game needs more attention! *2021-09-30, version 1.19.2* This game caught my heart 2 years ago. I played The Dawn and Twilight Book including the Lovers parts. This game is truly amazing. Try making new ads for the game to get more attention from people! :D ### 5/5 — Love this game *2021-07-25, version 1.18.0* I’ve played this game since July of 2019 and I absolutely adore it. The characters are amazing and the story is so intriguing. I like the layout of the game and how it operates. You also don’t have to pay to play which is a huge plus! ### 5/5 — Great Characters, lots of content *2021-04-19, version 1.16.1* I feel like all of the characters are much more developed than other mobile dating sims I’ve played, and each of their stories vary enough that it’s not dull to go through all of them. It does help with the draws to spend a bit of money, but if you’re patient, you don’t have to, and it doesn’t leave you missing out on anything. All around very good game. ### 5/5 — ♡ *2021-02-10* I really love this game and its stories! But it saddens me that people underestimate the app simply because they don't know English. ### 5/5 — Obey Me *2021-01-13, version 1.12.1* If u like staid then maybe go to “Obey Me”10/10 keys and the story line is perfect and the only thing you have to do to go to the next chapter is dance battles ### 5/5 — Tiddy man hot. *2020-12-15* When are they gonna kiss tho? 😤 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
