### 3/5 — 3年だけ？

*2025-07-30, version 1.16*

内容はいいけど課金しないと3年以降ができないのがダメなんだよなぁ

### 1/5 — NOT A FULL GAME

*2025-04-04*

They lied to you in the title. It’s not deluxe, it’s not the full version. It’s a demo. Don’t waste your time unless you want to pay for the full game. Or are curious about the full game. But this is not a standalone game as advertised.

### 5/5 — very fun

*2024-11-18*

have a good time

### 3/5 — 好み

*2024-02-03, version 1.08*

単純だがハマると面白い
天井を迎えると飽きる

### 1/5 — 蛤

*2023-09-07, version 1.08*

虫合，第二次就開不了

### 1/5 — 3年以降もしたい

*2023-08-29, version 1.08*

3年以降もしたい

### 1/5 — 開けない

*2023-08-09, version 1.08*

アプリ起動中満タンになると、ずっと真っ暗でなにも出来ません

### 1/5 — 星５もつけたくない

*2023-07-31, version 1.08*

続きするには課金だと？わざわざ製品版あるのにそこで課金させるのほんま詐欺やん。

### 1/5 — 게임 시작

*2023-05-08, version 1.08*

시작할때 한글로 바꾸고 로딩걸리다 검은화면으로 바뀌고 몇분동안 계속 그상태에요 시작이 안 되네요

### 1/5 — 初めは起動できたのに

*2023-05-05, version 1.08*

2時間後くらいにまたアプリを開こうとしたら他の方のレビューの通り、ゲーム機の外枠だけ表示されてあとは真っ暗な画面で右下にはバージョン1.08となったまま起動ができなくなりました。製品版を購入前でしたが、お試しは時間制限でもあったのかな？面白そうだったのに残念。
