### 2/5 — Broken game

*2024-10-14, version 1.0*

When I finally got the game it worked fine but when i took a break from it, it wouldn’t let me play and still won’t. But I think the animations and storyline are good.

### 4/5 — my review

*2023-12-04, version 1.0*

i played the game for a while , only on episode 4 and i love the storyline and the character information , but one thing that i saw , is that the  name thing keeps on popping up everytime you play the game , you have to keep on putting your name and i feel like it just takes time and its gets reptitive

### 4/5 — everything resets once u close it

*2023-06-26, version 1.0*

beside the flaw in the title, i do love the story and even wanted to buy coins but the game wont let me buy them so i cant even progress:(

### 4/5 — First time and some recommendations :D

*2022-12-03*

Hello and this is the first time I am writing a feedback so pls don’t take it to heart. The app was amazing and I loved the storyline and the art. The app will give us free coins enough to buy the main story so pick wisely for who you want to know at least you are a person that pays then go for it. Just to let you know that the game is not fully finished however there are at least three characters that are done but the two characters have no voice actor and the only one that had it was Jisung throughout the main story. 

Also developer I know this maybe difficult but there are some problems when I am playing it there are some translation that I am unable to understand as you can tell I’m a English player and while doing the story when I go to settings the whole thing is Korean I had a hard time trying to figure out what they mean also in the main story. As well that the title of the each place didn’t really fit to my screen as half of the word were cut off. 

I also recommend of putting some kind for f2p your choice to put some kind of daily to get coins yes I can see that you guys did it but it didn’t really add to my coins T-T and it’s just 4 coins. Another thing is about changing name I have already play it but it keeps repeating the same process of putting the name and it kinda annoys me each time it pop up and I have to keep changing the name to what I wanted each time I get off.  

For those players that like to see the ending they want from the character this is recommended again it’s not fully completed and only three is done expect that two don’t have voice actors. Unlike in a few apps where you have to pick a choice wisely to increase the character love this one will go straight towards the ending but there is one choice u must pick wisely which might lead to a different ending in one of the episodes. For those that are f2p you will have 45 coin to chose from the characters main story and that’s that which is sad cuz at first I be going on everyday thinking it will claim the coins but it didn’t T^T lucky for those that do pay. 

P.s developer I’ve been trying to email you guys about some problems but for some reason I am unable to find it so it’s the reason why I had to write it here.

*2021-01-07, version 1.0*

### 4/5 — It good but there a glitch

*2020-12-26, version 1.0*

I love the game! But there a glitch where when I get my daily coins and then I look to see how much I got it did not give me my coins and every time I click to go to the characters it would make me see the beginning cut scene and ask me to put the player name again.

*2020-12-09, version 1.0*

### 4/5 — Really cute but...

*2020-12-04, version 1.0*

I like this game but there are a few typos, text errors, and lack of navigation. When leaving one story route there isn’t any sort of back button so I have to close the app and go through the name input and intro multiple times.

### 1/5 — Ehh…

*2026-05-29, version 1.0*

I downloaded this app since it seemed fun to play, and I had plenty of time to kill respectably. I opened the app, watched the little five second clip at the beginning, and it just froze. I’ve tried reopening it several times but it hasn’t worked. Not sure if this is just a me thing, but nevertheless it is annoying and severely sucks. I just wanted a sappy romance!! I’m going to just stick with my digital mangas for now.

### 1/5 — Can’t get into the game

*2025-02-04, version 1.0*

The game won’t load and it says it works on iPhones and I’m trying to use it on my iPhone but it isn’t loading in.

### 1/5 — MY GAME ISN'T LOADING

*2024-05-02, version 1.0*

I can't even write a proper review since my game sadly won't load in past the either the games title or developer title (can't tell since it's in korean). and i've even tried it on both iphone 15 and my macbook pro 2022. I'd like some sort of sign of help since I would really like to enjoy this game. 

sincerely a random person who would like to enjoy this game.

### 1/5 — Still crashes

*2024-04-18, version 1.0*

Years later the game still doesn't load properly and there is no news on if it'll ever be updatedshould almost  write the story myself at this rate

### 1/5 — Game doesn’t work

It won’t load

### 1/5 — Won’t work but I wanna try it so badly

*2023-05-15, version 1.0*

So when I open the app it shows the characters one by one and then shows the whole group right? But the screen freezes after that. I tried to download and redownload for 4 weeks now since I’m desperate to try it but it won’t cooperate :(

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-03-19, version 1.0*

I tried to delete and redownload it but it doesn’t work. Like what another review said, after putting in my name, it loads and it seems like it never does. Which is a shame since it looks really interesting.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2023-11-01, version 1.0*

It’s a really good game I really hope you make more routes soon

### 5/5 — 업데이트 해주세요..

*2023-01-30, version 1.0*

웹사이트도 없어지고.. 재밌는데 딴애들 스토리도 안나오고.. 한국어판은 무한로딩이고.. 이상한 어플 업뎃하지마시고 이게임 업뎃해주세요 제발.. ㅠㅠㅠ

### 5/5 — Great game, but

*2022-08-12, version 1.0*

This is a great game, but a few concerns. They probably can be fixed easily. I played all 15 episodes of the main story. However, the 2 free coins a day aren’t working. I watch the video and it says it is awarded, but the coin count is still zero. Another suggestion I have is to have another way to gain more coins, because the epilogue is another 25 coins. The epilogue could open after so long or if someone choose to buy it. Also, the username does not save. It has to be reentered during each gameplay. I don’t know if this will be read or considered, but I hope so. This is actually a great game!!

### 5/5 — Updates?

*2021-01-29, version 1.0*

Hi! I absolutely loved this and enjoyed each route but.. I’m wondering when the others will be released??

I’ve seen the remake- except it’s in a different language besides English... TvT

Could you try and work on the English version again? 

I remembered playing this a year or two ago so.. I came back to go again.

Much love, An Otome Fantic

P.S The work and effort you put into this makes it a great game. <3

### 5/5 — 💕

*2021-01-12, version 1.0*

Release more characters plz
Also new games💕

### 5/5 — the storytelling is satisfactory

*2020-11-07, version 1.0*

this game is alright, i find it really fun and comedic to play. the script is a bit cliché and it’s a fun gameplay. so far, i’ve only played hyunwoo’s route due to shortage of coins. there a few bugs like having to insert your name every time, but i don’t have a problem with that since it’s a nice option that we get to choose our own name. overall it’s a really good game. the art is pretty and the storylines are alright. it’s very interesting and entertaining. nonetheless, i’m really excited for the other routes and hopefully i’ll have enough coins to play them.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2020-07-13, version 1.0*

I love this game even though I downloaded it 4 days ago. I Absolutely Love it! But I wish your other games were in English 😊

### 5/5 — Takes forever to load

*2020-06-23, version 1.0*

I haven’t been able to play the game yet because it takes hours to load for me but i’m sure the game is great

### 5/5 — It takes forever to load

*2020-06-15, version 1.0*

Its probably a great game but it just takes forever to load I haven’t even been able to play it

### 5/5 — Love it...question

*2020-06-06, version 1.0*

I love the game but how do i change the language in english in the setting ?
