### 3/5 — .....

*2025-11-14*

A game... Ig. Anyways I just would like to know how to get the shop achievement because there's no option for a shop. I want to complete all achievements because I like perfection.

### 5/5 — Hidden visual novel gem

*2022-03-31*

If you really enjoy Visual Novels and want to read a light hearted story then this is what you’re looking for and highly recommend checking this visual novel out. By playing the various routes you can experience the many situations. You can get funny endings to heartwarming endings which is just great how this small out of the way game contains such a variety of well done routes. It also has really good voice acting along with the games really nice song I enjoyed listening to. At the time I played the game the store was disabled for IOS which prevents getting achievements for HD wallpaper. Which fortunately this game has a great developer who I reach out to and got a link to the wallpaper.

Epic game

### 3/5 — Great game but I’ve been a bit confused about something also sometimes hard

*2021-06-01*

I’m just going to get one thing out of the way this is a wonderfully great game and it definitely deserves more players but with there’s this two achievements that I am trying really hard to get one of them is called ‘Just looking’ and your meant to visit the shop but I’ve never seen the shop before and I’ve try really hard too get it but I just can’t for some reason also the other one is called ‘Read 5000 lines’ or something like that I can’t remember I’d love to rate this game 3.5 stars anyway if anybody knows how to get the ‘Just looking’ achievement please tell me I’d love too know also I don’t know where to go to get help with these things.The characters in this game are GREAT love them so so much like I love Yui I also really like Keade the VAing in this game is also very nice the graphics are also wonderful I love this game so much and It will always have a special place in heart thanks for reading my review I hope you all have a beautiful day, night and or afternoon bye ^^!

### 5/5 — Yes

*2021-03-24*

The best visual novel I’ve ever played. That’s all I have to say about it. :)

### 5/5 — Great job

*2021-02-22*

I love visual novels and I’m glad I finally got around to playing this game. I loved it and the art is awesome thank you for making this.

### 5/5 — Just amazing

*2021-02-09*

I am surprised that a small free anime game like this exists, the soundtrack is catchy, the dialogue is hilarious, and the voice acting is surprisingly very good.

### 5/5 — I really enjoyed !!!!

*2021-01-31*

As the title says I really enjoyed this game ,and I would recommend it to everyone I know which isn’t a lot but still.You have nothing to lose by taking my word for it. It’s literally freee. Well mabye your time since you can never get that back ,but you certainly won’t be wasting your time on this game. Every one of the endings was interesting in its own way.Also if you get all the achievements they say you get a wallpaper which is pretty cool.I haven’t been able to get all of them yet but I’m definitely looking forward to it. It is also really funny sometimes.I won’t say how because I think it’s better when it’s a surprise. The song that plays is also really catchy got stuck in my head all night. I have a lot more to say about how good this game is ,but to keep it short you should definitely try the game out.

### 5/5 — Amazing game and developer

*2021-01-19*

The game is super fun to go through, trying to earn every achievement and discover each ending. The English voice acting is really good as well as funny. Every ending is unique and a few even caught me completely off guard. The art style is also really nice to look at while playing. The last thing I would like to mention is the superb customer support. I like all apple users could not earn every achievement required for the end game reward. This issue was remedied by the developer helping me to get the award. 
This game is worth your time for sure, and if you ever have a problem the developer is really nice and will try their best to help you.
