Didn’t see where else to share me concern. ### 4/5 — Yes *2017-12-31* It’s a little buggy now and then but it’s great so far ### 2/5 — Disappointed *2017-12-10, version 2.1.38* There are a lot of crashes and a lot of lags. ### 4/5 — Loading *2017-10-06, version 2.0.38* The game all in all is amazing. Great storyline and graphics. You get the occasional hiccup from the game where it hasn’t translated from French to English but no game is completely perfect. Only issue I’ve had is since updating a few days ago, I’m unable to access the game. It leaves me on the pink loading screen at the start before menu. Patiently awaiting another update to stop it. ### 2/5 — Frustrated... *2017-10-03, version 2.0.38* I am unable to play any of the tictales games. I’m not sure what’s going on with the apps but they are not working. I love these love story games. I don’t want to have to delete the apps or restart. ### 2/5 — Good story but major programming issues *2017-10-01, version 2.0.32* I'm enjoying the story so far but programming issues with the text in the first chapter (at least) make it a train-wreck to try and read. The text often repeats itself to the point that whole portions of a conversation will play itself over again. Makes it really frustrating considering that you use AP every time you progress a conversation and repeating text prompts force you to use more AP on a part of the story you've already read. ### 2/5 — Nope *2017-09-10, version 1.7.13* Lots of lags and crashes i liked the other one before that much more it locked better too ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2017-08-12, version 1.7.13* I like that there are always 3 options for the choice you have to make. Better than most I've played. Get a good long play for the AP you have/use. ### 4/5 — Want more AP? *2017-08-08, version 1.7.13* TAKsDJp ### 4/5 — Cool *2017-08-06, version 1.7.13* Très bien ### 3/5 — Good *2017-07-26, version 1.7.13* Passes time ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bog toujours *2018-09-05, version 2.2.40* Très décevant, l’histoire bog beaucoup et finalement fonctionne plus ### 1/5 — Constantly freezing *2018-05-26* I installed the app and it got stuck on the opening screen. Even rebooting and uninstalling and reinstalling did not work. Please fix. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2018-03-26* Takes forever just to get Ap. Instead of refilling it in a few hours you have to collect it every 30 mins in small amounts. ### 1/5 — Buggy phone scenes make it unplayable *2017-10-29* I can’t make it past chapter 8 thanks to a glitch with the phone scene that makes the next dialogue unable to load. Reported it but haven’t seen any progress or heard about it in a week. Previous phone scenes appear to have been glitchy anyway, freezing upon opening up and only working after closing and reopening the app. This time, it’s completely immovable. Will delete this in a few days time as my phone is running out of space anyways. ### 1/5 — Racist *2017-08-02, version 1.7.13* no black people ### 1/5 — The bank is killing me *2017-01-12, version 1.6.54* The bank won't give me the stuff that I bought don't download it ### 1/5 — Can't even play *2017-01-04, version 1.6.38* I barely started chapter 1 and the dialogue is unreadable. It flashes for a second then goes away. I'm basically staring at the background waiting and tapping the screen for something to happen. Then occasionally, new dialogue appears over the old dialogue and I struggle again to read it as it disappears after a second. Please fix it! ### 2/5 — AP points run out to fast *2018-11-03* You get maybe four sayings before you are out of AP points. I feel like it could be better. I am thinking about deleting. ### 2/5 — Love / Hate relationship with Tictales *2018-05-26* I enjoy their stories, but get errors all the time. Have never been able to register with Facebook and never been able to be in contact with support. Now this app won’t load and I have paid energy and a lot of progress I am afraid to lose. ### 2/5 — Updates *2018-05-25* It has been difficult to update this game. Also you can’t get the videos to get the extra PA points. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I love it but...one question *2019-01-08* I love this game, and I even enjoy that we get to dress our avatar. 😁😌 But here’s my question to dress your avatar you need to spend your earnings. So for “us” who don’t want to spend money for it can we wait and just let the earning stack up? 🤔Because In the older games you couldn’t do this. ### 5/5 — Rising Lovers *2018-02-28* So far I’m enjoying the game ### 5/5 — Love this app! I WANT MORE BEN, ALEX, & PIERRE!💋 *2018-01-18* This app is visually beautiful, the storyline is fun and interactive, albeit sometimes very devastating/dramatic, the music is soothing, and the variety of romance options are overall appealing even though the two guys I adore have very limited interaction and heartbreaking results. (I fell for Ben during Chapter 4, but he only has one big scene, and much to my disappointment, he wasn't a date option afterwards, and he hasn't been seen or referenced to since, despite being one of the main 3 guys in their photos for the app💔 Then later on, Pierre came into the picture and lit up my heart again, but despite them being close, there's never an option to reconcile.) Anywho, the energy system WAS very good. You can do social media tasks to gain AP, and every 6 hours now you can open chests for small amounts of AP before it fully restores once a day at 5 PM CST. It used to be AP chests were available every hour, but unfortunately, not anymore. The prices for AP aren't outrageous like other apps and are fair; so I'm more than happy to purchase it to continue read this intriguing story like I have been! I heard that a new chapter is coming soon, and I cannot wait! I chose to end the relationship at the end and go to Paris, where I met up with Alex! I hope they bring him back as a romance option! So sick of the drama with Julian, the BS from Alan, and the ridiculous mess that is Seb!😑 To address other low star reviews, when I first downloaded this app, it had quite a few glitches, like the terrible freezing phone screen scenes, but after bearing with it for a few days after sending my bug report in, this app came out with several updates to fix the problems right away, and I haven't had any issues in the many months since! They're clearly dedicated to the satisfaction of their fanbase and the stability of their product! P.S.: a final personal note (couple spoilers so beware) from a devoted and emotionally invested fan to the writers/developers♥️ WHY IS PIERRE NOT A FULL BLOWN ROMANCE OPTION?! Seriously, he's honestly the most interesting character in this app, and I want him so bad!😭There is so much substance in Pierre's relation to the MC that should dictate they could be together again, especially after all he did for the MC, and his attitude towards her is a classic indicator he still cares about her and having an attraction to her in particular despite his revelation later on. So disappointed Pierre's character was passed over, and the reader is stuck to be with troubled/open relationship Seb, I come with major baggage Allan, or "I'm not yours!" I do what I want Julien as the final romance options!😣 Come on TicTales give us Ben, Alex, or Pierre when the new chapters come out! ### 5/5 — Mrs *2017-11-25* Great game ### 5/5 — Amazing!!! *2017-10-15* This is absolutely my favorite game! ### 5/5 — Its great game *2017-09-16, version 1.7.13* I like the game, its interisting. ### 5/5 — Free AP *2017-09-02, version 1.7.13* 20wagpt ### 5/5 — Jenifeal24 *2017-08-21, version 1.7.13* Good job ### 5/5 — Great *2017-07-27, version 1.7.13* Love it ### 5/5 — Great game! *2017-07-23, version 1.7.13* Love the game just hate how long it takes to refill action points! Love the story so far though :) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
