### 2/5 — Heavily monetised.

*2025-07-03, version 1.15.517*

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.

### 3/5 — Dommage...

*2025-06-20*

Le jeu est bien mais 500 energie c'est très peu par jour... Bien dommage qu'il n'y ai pas un système de publicité a chaque fin de scène au lieu d'attendre le lendemain pour pouvoir y jouer même pas 5min.
Cela devient lassant c'est dommage.

### 2/5 — Lag

*2022-04-11, version 1.5.420*

I saw someone else with this problem I started playing and now it won’t open I try too but it doesn’t load at all-🗿

### 2/5 — Love the book but I didn’t get my energy

*2022-02-27, version 1.5.420*

I love the book so far but I purchased energy and it’s been two days I’m very disappointed.

### 4/5 — .

*2021-11-06*

deveriam dar mais energias já que toda vez que aquela p0rr4 de gato mia tem que gastar energia

### 4/5 — Problem with my story

*2021-09-21, version 1.4.387*

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.

### 4/5 — Gasta muita energia

*2021-08-31*

Esse jogo é uma falta de consideração com gente pobre e ansiosa, dois textos dos personagens já come 100 de energia, ou vocês aumentam pra 1000 a energia ou vocês abaixam a energia que um texto consome ou seja 20, sério se continuar assim vou demorar 1 ano pra terminar a história, colaborem ai por favor pq fora isso o jogo é bom

### 4/5 — 🔝

*2021-08-29*

Franchement tout les jeux is it love sont super, comme les autre commentaire le disent c’est un peu dommage d’attendre aussi longtemps pour continuer l’histoire mais sinon j’aime beaucoup. Après je pense que se serait une bonne idée de faire des histoires girlxgirl et boyxboy d’autre personne pourrais s’identifier au personnage(et personnellement je suis bisexuelle donc voir des jeux lgbt ou lgbt+ c’est super agréable à voir. 
Voilà sinon j’adore continuer comme sa ≛

### 3/5 — Patience Cultivator or Money Trap

*2021-04-04, version 1.3.350*

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.

### 4/5 — Cenas secretas

*2021-03-17*

Sempre amei esse jogo e amo agr ainda mais que as energias de graça aumentaram para 500! Mas será q daria pra diminuir o valor das cenas secretas? Qnd eu baixei primeiramente, era 1 real. Depois aumentou pra 5 e depois pra 10. Se puder voltar ao valor de 1 real, o jogo ficaria PERFEITO! Pq afinal, já tem q gastar dinheiro nas energias

### 4/5 — Energy

*2021-02-20, version 1.3.350*

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

### 4/5 — Energia

*2021-01-29*

O jogo é bom, mas poderiam diminuir o gasto de energia por diálogo. Tirar 5 de energia pra cada um seria bom, mas 10? 
Tirando isso, jogo interessante

### 3/5 — The game

*2020-12-22, version 1.3.344*

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

### 2/5 — Good but.....

*2020-12-18, version 1.3.344*

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.!

*2026-03-15*

Passa ano entra ano ele não tira esse negócio de energia tem vários jogos bom sem ter que paga tipo romance chapter  paga pelos diamantes mais age bota vidro para genro ter diamante eu não instalo mais

### 1/5 — Paguei e não recebi minha energia

*2024-08-14*

Comprei um pacote de energia e informaram que ouve um problema, mas foi debitado da minha conta e no suporte não aparece a opção pra eu colocar o id da compra pra resolver o problema, até agora nada de devolverem meu dinheiro e nem energias 😤

### 1/5 — Energia do jogo atrapalha!!

*2024-07-26*

Literalmente 20 energia da só pra um texto, oq acaba com o jogo.
vou desinstalar ruim nessa questão.

### 1/5 — Do not get the app

*2024-04-09, version 1.15.517*

It is terrible, and nothing happened

### 1/5 — Horrível

*2022-09-26*

Não baixem , não vale a pena, horrível só perda de tempo, energias acabam rápido, só no dia seguinte

### 1/5 — A

*2021-12-27*

Jogo legal, só poderia colaborar com as energias!! Demorar um dia p recarregar ?? Pelo amor! Poderia dar logo 1000 energias pra nós

### 1/5 — Die Energie ist ein Witz

*2021-05-18*

Die Story ist bis jetzt ganz gut aber die Energie ist der totale Witz. Wenn man nicht ein heiden Geld ausgeben möchte benutzt man die App 2 Minuten pro Tag + 3-5 min Werbung schauen um noch 2,3 Sätze zu lesen. Daran bitte arbeiten! Andernfalls lösche ich diese App wieder, da mir der Speicherplatz dafür zu schade ist! Es gibt etliche bessere Apps bei denen das lesevergnügen viel länger ist.

**Developer response:** Hallo. Es tut uns leid, dass dir das Spiel in letzter Zeit nicht mehr so viel Spaß gemacht hat. Wir haben deine Nachricht an unser Team weitergeleitet und hoffen, dass zukünftige Verbesserungen deine Meinung ändern können.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2021-04-08, version 1.3.350*

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.
