Heavily monetised.
I’ll start off by saying the art is wonderful & the writing is intriguing. I’ve played Is it Love? games on and off since I was a teenager and there is only one reason I consistently end up dropping them each time - energy.
The amount of energy you get daily gets you through the TINIEST speck of the story. I’ve seen other apps use a system where energy will fill up slowly over the course of a few hours, but that isn’t the case here. The energy is limited to just a daily refill. This feels really harsh considering how little progress you can make based off of that tiny amount of daily energy.
The energy shop has some pretty egregious prices. I’ve considered buying a little bit before, but when I think about just how little of the story it will get me through, I’m always turned off.
I’ve not played the newer Is it Love? games so I can’t say if those are the same, but Carter, Matt & Colin all have the same system and are equally as frustrating to try and play.
Please, please consider adding a way to just pay for the stories outright!
Not only would it likely be more appealing to players who wouldn’t mind paying for the games, but it could also be a way of making sure people can still play if they ever got removed from the AppStore or if servers shut down. People wouldn’t be stuck with a broken in-app purchase system, or worse, a completely accessible game.

Omg
The best app
There is a lot of sex I love it

Problem with my story
I love the story but there is a problem I just finished the 1st season and With my player not in good terms with Gabriel I made it end like I will be with Matt but when I started the 2nd season when they show what happened previously they showed a date with Gabriel and on that date me and Gabriel declared our love but I never had that date in season one and the 2nd season so far seems like I’m dating Gabriel when I should not be because I had them not be together in 1st season so the game messed my story up the way I didn’t want it because I want my player to end up with Matt not Gabriel. So I’m disappointed that they made me still be dating Gabriel when my choices led me to leave Gabriel and have my player have closed fist leaving him at the end of season one with the last picture you can get in season one it even shows Gabriel and me walking away with him.

Awesome, awesome story but plz plz can I buy this story without ads plz.
Disappointed
Please make individual apps for Mark and Victor because I played the new one months ago and I lost all my progress on 4 of my games and all my hidden images disappeared and I asked support for help they didn’t reply for weeks so I deleted the new app. And why are they cutting the story in half to just 5 short chapters like we all know that we won’t be able to develop a good relationships with Mark and Victor. Is it Love ? World please listen to your fans because we aren’t liking this one bit and some of us have been waiting since the announcement back in 2016 for Marks and we thought we were going to get the 11 chapters not 5 short chapters. Please reconsider and make the 11 chapters like every other story and again please make the Individual Apps.

Patience Cultivator or Money Trap
First let me say that the storyline is fun and engaging. (I’m in the midst of reading Nicolae and Part 2 of Gabriel.) You will be drawn in and want to see where the story leads BUT I swear this app tests my patience like no other. When you first start your story the app does not charge energy and you can get a fair way through Chapter 1. Once you are invested in the story the trap is sprung. You discover you have exhausted all your energy. To continue your story you will either need to have patience and wait for your daily 500 allotment of energy, (plus a potential 100 every 10+ hours by watching ads) or you will need money to purchase vials of energy. The energy purchases can get to be expensive because this is a multi chapter story and many of the lower end vials are not even enough to get you through a chapter. Whichever route you choose, you will use 10 points for every page. So when the character only says “Ugh” on the page you get annoyed. (Play the game to see what I mean). You don’t have to give the app one dime but a potential 700 points a day is in reality only 70 screens. You won’t get far. Also be aware that if you choose the patience route your ad points will not stack with the 500 allotment. If you earn it you must use it or face a potential loss when you earn your next allotment. I emailed the company on this and received an “We’re sorry. The points don’t stack.”, for my troubles. I give the storyline 4 stars because I did find some glitches and grammatical errors, (for the arm I give in support of this app they need to be darn near perfect IMO). For the terrible return on your investment I give it 2 stars. So my average rate on this app is 3 stars.

Energy
I love this game but, every day I need to get energy to continue, still I get 500 energy per day but I’m thinking if the developers can upgrade the energy for the day
Awesome
I love this app
Is it love?~Mark
This game is very amazing I’ve downloaded nearly all of them! However, why isn’t there a love story for MARK!??🥺👎
The game
Idk if the story is good yet because it takes too long to finish😐tbh I think u only made the game so people would buy energy because the energy doesn’t even last that long, I can only read like 3-5 pages with the energy and then I have to wait 24 hours for more? And it still doesn’t even last that long

Good but.....
It’s a good game love the music love when it vibrates your phone when she gets embarrassed or senses someone behind her or falls over. And it’s good with its spelling good with the art good with everything..........But THE energies are so annoying Like I haven’t even finished a chapter in 2 DAYS:0 if you know this app episode
It’s just like this but has different story’s I think on episode I read a story in a week it does have energies but you can like finsh 1 chapter every day or 3 BUT WITH THIS APP AND the money if you wanna buy energies is soooooo expensive for what it is like GO play episode it’s sooooo much better on episode u unlock 2 stories to read then 4 Then so many of them and if you sign in you can make your own story’s read like 1 chapter once a day so yeah go try it.!

I like it but
Don’t get me wrong I love this game but why energy bars? I just wish we could just go through the story like I wasn’t even starting well I mean I was still at the beginning and yet I needed energy bars to keep going! -_-
Doesn’t give enough energy.
It’s a good game, but it gives 300 daily energy points that don’t even let you read the full chapter. I get through 4-5 sentences and you run out of energy. The videos to get more energy only gives you 20 energy points. Game is good if you decide to buy energy, I won’t be doing that. There’s other romance games out there where you don’t have to spend money. I will stick with those.
