### 5/5 — AMAZING !!!

*2024-10-27*

This is genuinely one of the best games I’ve ever played. I downloaded it out of boredom because I saw it and thought it looked interesting and the art was cute. I didn’t know it was even one of those story games; and if anything, I thought it was more like a mini game. But this game is absolutely amazing. The story is so interesting and fun, the characters are funny, deep, and memorable. I have never been more impressed by a random game in my entire life. It makes you think about things deeper, suspect those you won’t, and is genuinely so fun to play. The main character, Sayla, is enjoyable to experience the story with and the game itself is so amazingly put together and pulls you into the story. It has it intense moments, funny moments, and other things that tie the story into the beauty that it is…and currently as of writing this, I have only made it to episode 2!!! That already goes to show how amazing it is. The episodes are worth the price and the story is incredible. I am unsure if this game is even continuing to be updated, but regardless, I have very strong positive feelings towards this game and I feel that it will remain one of my favorites even after I finish it! ^__^ The art is adorable and beautiful and so detailed as well. I enjoy all the backgrounds and character designs. Everything pieces together so well and beautifully. I appreciate even the smaller details. The fact you can click on the colored words to understand their meaning and relevance to the story, the world building, the fun dynamics explored through the characters, the fact there are so many endings, the fact you can save the game whenever. I value this game highly. I have to say, it is one of the funnest games I’ve played. I don’t bother skipping things and I enjoy pausing it to think of things and clues myself as the story plays out. The characters are amazing and I just love it all so much. It has so much replay value as well. I do not feel bored with it because I can explore all the endings and see what else happens. I will treasure this game and my experience playing it as I continue the next few episodes. I LOVE it !!!!!!!!!

### 4/5 — Definitely Recommended

*2022-09-23*

A fun visual novel mystery series, completely free! There is no filler in the story, and a few endings and ways to get bad ends. Also, you gotta love the classic dynamic of the passionate and prissy princess with her polite and professional butler.

### 4/5 — 良作だと思います

*2019-04-06*

まずノベル系ゲームの中で、有料とは言えここまで絵が綺麗なのは中々ないと思います。

肝心のストーリーについても、十分に楽しめました。続編を期待しています。

幾つか気になる点があったので、書き記してみたいと思います。ネタバレ失礼します。

・2話について
偽の鍵は言うほど簡単に作れるかなぁという疑問があります。合鍵と同じくらい邪道な気もするんですが。

・3話について
怪盗が盗みに来るという話ですから、プレイヤーが真っ先に疑うのは最近勤め始めたメイドだと思います。その点、分身たる姫様があまり用心していなかったのが残念でした。

・4話について
ミステリの定番という感じのストーリーでした。トリックとしては仕方ないのですが、何故被害者は直前に殴られた所を会談場所に指定したのだろうか、と思いました。凶器に被害者の指紋だけついていたのも謎でした。犯人は手袋着用で、被害者が即死せずナイフを抜こうとした時についた指紋……という事だろうと考えていたのですが、揉み合ったすえの過失致死ということなら両者の指紋が付いている気がします。
また、ダイイングメッセージには呼び慣れた名前で書くという話でしたが、彼なら3人目のひらこさんのことを名前で呼んでいてもおかしくないかなとも感じました。

### 1/5 — 絵が動く演出がわたしには合わなかった

*2019-02-09*

キャラクターが話すときに絵が動きますが、画面酔いが激しいわたしにとっては、そういった演出は疲れてしまうため、合いませんでした。

### 1/5 — なんなの

*2018-11-30*

まずゲームはじめられない
スタートボタンらしきものがない
何回やってもなにもはじまらない
本当は星1つもつけたくないけど…
消します。

### 5/5 — めちゃくちゃ面白いです！

*2018-10-16*

難易度はありますが、謎解きゲームがあまり得意ではない私も楽しく解くことが出来ました。

### 4/5 — I have a request

*2017-11-03*

Please send the English version I want to try play this but I can’t because I don’t understand so if you please let me test your game then please send the English version thank you for the attention

### 5/5 — 自分は好きな部類です

*2017-09-06*

難易度もそこそこ高いのか良いですね

### 5/5 — 最終話までやって

*2017-07-31*

非常に面白かったです。話毎にマルチエンディングが用意されてるのも◎
個人的には4話目が中々気付けずに苦戦しましたが、解答まで辿り着けた時に納得しました。
続編期待してる作品です。

### 5/5 — なかなかに難しいですな

*2017-07-27*

でも面白いやっぱ矛盾を疑うところから考えればきっと真実にたどり着きますよおすすめです
