### 5/5 — Most underrated game ever!!

*2026-08-23, version 4.23.5*

There are so much positive things I could say about this game so far, the characters all have their own unique personalities and lore, interactions are actually interesting to see, character outfits are extremely impressive and well-designed in game, you can get most desirable recourses early in game, especially if you farm a lot, the story is pretty good to dive into and pretty simple to understand in my opinion, and the combat is very simple, yet can be challenging/strategic at times, making it still doable to do. THE ART IS AMAZINGLY INCREDIBLE IN THIS GAME!! Especially when they present food, it genuinely makes me hunger for it…Overall, more people should know about this game it’s worth your time!

### 4/5 — 始めて1日目の感想

*2026-05-02, version 4.23.5*

◼︎戦闘について
お手軽ではありつつもスキルの使い時やどの敵を狙うかなどの戦略を考える楽しさがあり、楽しい

◼︎キャラ・成長要素について
ソシャゲのガチャに苦手意識のある私にとってはベストに感じる。
それぞれのキャラに個性があり、成長の手段が複数ある+着せ替えや拠点に家具などを置ける点も○

◼︎ストーリーについて
目的がそれなりにはっきりしているため、進めるモチベーションに繋がるが、たまに台詞の文字数が多く勝手にスクロールされてしまい前半に何と言っているかわからないことがある。
この点はマイナス

総合的には高評価で、これからも続けたいと思う。

### 5/5 — ハイクオリティな作品

*2026-04-29, version 4.23.5*

無課金だとシナリオを読むのにも膨大な時間がかかるが、その分達成感も大きい。
かかる時間としては2章が1番長くてしんどいので、そこさえクリアしてしまえばシナリオ読破まではそう遠くないかな（全難易度クリアとなると話は別）。

グラフィックやSE、BGMも世界観を充分に表現できていてかなり高品質だし、バトルも結構PSで差が出る。

この手のゲームだとシナリオはおまけのカスになりがちだけど、これはちゃんと読めるシナリオだった。正直時間がかかりすぎる以外に不満なところは無い。総じてやる価値のあるゲームだと思う。

### 5/5 — Keep up the great work dev

*2026-03-24, version 4.23.5*

Great game really, nice and at least fun to play

### 5/5 — My love

*2026-03-16, version 4.23.5*

Came back to replay it from the start after playing garden of witches 0.9 beta. Game is as awesome as i remember. No wonder 14y.o. me liked it so much

### 5/5 — まったり遊べて楽しい！！💗

*2026-03-02, version 4.23.5*

ストーリーはキャラクターたちが次々と色んな登場人物に出会ってその度に新しい食材と美味しそうな料理が追加されるって感じで、キャラクターたちのビジュアルも絵柄もすごく可愛くて癒されます😽💗

それに料理がものすごく美味しそうで深夜にゲームを進めているとお腹が空いちゃいます…🤤

だいたいのゲームのホーム画面には音楽のbgmがありますが、このゲームの環境音のbgmがあります…！

個人的に曲じゃなくて環境音なのがすごく好きでゲームを遊ぶためだけじゃなく本を読むときや勉強をするときにこのゲームを開いて作業用bgmとして活用することもあります😽😽

育成もすごく簡単で料理を作って稼いだお金でHPと攻撃力を上げる感じで各キャラクターづつレベルが上がるんじゃなく全員まとめてレベルを上げてくれるので新しく入手したキャラクターも1Lvからじゃなく元々持っているキャラクターと同じレベルなので育成で詰むことは無いです…！！

それとガチャを引かなくてもストーリーを進めれば新しいキャラクターが貰えるので好きなキャラを確実に貰えるのもありがたい…！

まったり、ゆったり遊べるので少しでも雰囲気が気になってたり落ち着いたゲームをやりたい！と思ってる方は是非やってみてください🫶🏻🫶🏻


それと…レビューで利用規約が中国語だとか英語で読めない！と言ってる方が居ましたが普通に日本語でした……！改善されてると思うので心配せずやってみてください…！

### 5/5 — Good game

*2026-03-01, version 4.23.5*

Keep it up Dev love the game so much.

### 1/5 — Файлед?!?….Иди туда откуда

*2025-11-06, version 4.23.4*

Не работает

### 5/5 — 出现问题(There is a problem)

*2025-10-31, version 4.23.4*

为什么新版本更新后不显示战斗数字
( Why is the battle number not displayed after the new version is updated ? )

### 5/5 — かわええのー

*2025-08-05, version 4.23.3*

団長に惚れてやり始めましたご飯も美味しそうだしバトルも楽しいので最高です！！
