### 4/5 — Please update the game

*2021-07-22, version 1.0.3*

Ok so I played this a long time ago but deleted it cause there weren’t that much routes and I just got bored but I recently started playing again and I really like it. Although, not all the characters have routes yet and I really am looking forward to Okubo’s route. Also, I hate how you have to purchase coins in order to get a side story (although the prices aren’t that high which is good) but it’s still really annoying. I also noticed that there aren’t daily gifts or a present box like there is in the other cybrid game. I’m pretty sure cybrid stopped updating this game but I hope you guys do update it soon, it’s one of my favorites

### 5/5 — Please bring DTL back to life

*2021-07-08, version 1.0.3*

This was an amazing game. My first otome app and I seriously spent quite a bit on it ( and then other Cybird games) but they stopped having events and then just stopped updating. It was berry disappointing because I had been waiting to get Kondo’s story, as leader of the Shinsengumi who gets repeatedly lost, even in his own compound and who loves pets but apparently has an Anne-Happy type luck around them ( and I just pictured Yamazaki giving him one of his special rocks and the MC doodling eyes and a cat grin on it, so he’d have a “pet rock”), I just think he’s story would be very interesting!!!
Please bring back DTL! ( and MidCin too pls.)

### 3/5 — Needs updating

*2021-07-01, version 1.0.3*

As much as I love this it really needs some fixing. I know they might of abandoned this, but at least make it look decent enough to play!! I came back after some years to it still looking that same sadly. Please add an daily login so that it can last at least for a year. I also see some spelling errors in dialogue. I personally do not have any problem with it, but there might be some who do.

### 5/5 — Character

*2021-03-24, version 1.0.3*

I love the characters I just wish Kondo and Yukio was one for the characters you can chose to

### 4/5 — This game has changed

*2020-10-21, version 1.0.3*

I love this game so much, don’t get me wrong, but I really don’t like the new updates. I wish there was still the daily log in bonuses because getting gold is much harder. It now takes me ages to get gold to pass love challenges and getting gacha points is hard too. With the daily log in I could get gacha points, gold, affection tonics, grace perfumes, closet storage, chapter tickets, tea sets, and accessories all for free as long as i committed to playing everyday. Now I’d have to pay to get all of those things or hope I get something really good from perfecting tea time. I have played this game for over 4 years and have restarted many times. My old accounts are gone and getting chapter tickets and those things now are very difficult. I feel that there should be a way to get free coins such as taking surveys or watching ad videos. I also feel like there should be an option to hide your characters face in pictures. It would make me feel more submerged in the game. One more thing I think should be added is being able to change the characters skin color. Thank you for hearing me out.

### 5/5 — Love the game-hate how few story tickets it offers.

*2020-05-01, version 1.0.3*

The game is great and the storyline is actually followable, the characters are interesting too but I wish you could earn story tickets without having to pay. Game Creators make it so you can buy tickets with gold!!!! Pleaaaaase!

### 5/5 — Highly recommend!!

*2020-04-16, version 1.0.3*

I love this game, personally. I’ve had it on my phone for years and I play it off and on. I’ve done both endings for Hijikata and Katsura, and one ending for Keiki. Destined to Love gets a lot of hate in comparison to other Cybird games, but I don’t get it. Destined to Love is quite possibly my favorite of all the Cybird games. I love the characters and the plot, especially Katsura and Keiki. The only complaint I have is the length of chapters. They can be ridiculously short, but they’re still good. It is not the easiest to play for free at first but I’ve never spent a penny and I’ve done fine. This is a great otome game, and I hope you have as much fun with it as I have!

### 4/5 — Wish this would change...

*2020-04-01, version 1.0.3*

I am completely in love with this game, and I haven’t even finished one route yet! I originally played this game a year or two ago but lost interest, but got back into it about a month ago. One thing I do wish would be changed would be the choice of instead of paying to get the premium scenes would be to use a system where you download apps or something like that, like Tapjoy. 

 I would only do this though if the offers were actually good and reasonable, rather than having them all be for subscribing to a random cite that looks sketchy. If the offers were say, 1000 coins to get the citadel in a game to level 15, I would take the time and use it to get the coins so I could have that premium route. When I had Destiny Ninja 2+ (May it R.I.P.) I would spend so much time earning points to turn into coins so I could get the premium route. 

I personally don’t like continuing a game if I can’t get the CG or the special scene, but to some extent I will tolerate it. With not getting the premium route makes me feel like I’m missing something really good in the storyline. Yes, it may not effect it, but it adds more to the characters and shows how deep the relationship can be for being fictional. These are my opinions, but I do hope you consider them somewhat. I can’t wait to read more of the routes!

### 4/5 — What about Yuki??

*2019-07-30, version 1.0.3*

Are we not able to date Yuki AT ALL, or is his route just not released yet? ‘Cause he’s honestly so awesome. Anyway, pretty good, I wish the chapters were longer. Also, having more mature storylines (i.e. Katsura, Kirisato/Haru) would be awesome. Not much else to say. Wish updates were more often!

### 3/5 — Good, but could've been better

*2019-04-26, version 1.0.3*

I started the game when they stopped doing log in bonuses and that personally kills the game experience. You have to wait in order to get enough gold to advance and get past the avatar challenge, which is nearly impossible. I rely a lot on tea time and super lucky fortunes that are hard to get/do. I have to hoard my items and it's difficult to move on in the game when there is barely anything left (and you're still not even the amount of gold you need to get past avatar challenges). I understand that there is not enough demand for the game to continue those log in bonuses (hence being discontinued), but it would be a lot easier and less discouraging on the players who are still willing to keep going.

However, it's not all bad. It's a good game with nice characters and a good experience to work through. I do enjoy the game very much and I completed Haru's route in no time. I love it so much. But, it could've been better the second time through. It gets harder the second time around without the bonuses they give you and the prolonged periods of time to gain the right amount of materials to move on.

Destined to wait? Sure. It's good, but it can be way better than what it is right now.
