*2026-07-29, version 2.0.2*

This game is super well-produced, can see that a lot of effort went into it and it’s worth every penny

### 5/5 — What a lovely game and story

*2026-07-27, version 2.0.2*

This is a choice based movie that has a story timeline to allow the player to do alternative options.  Quality of cinematic experience and music are great. Story is extensive and you can play this for 2
10-20 hours.  

You guide the course of a young woman’s journey to become the Supreme empress.  There is a lot of character depth of the main character and supporting roles.  

I’d love to see more titles from this company.

*2026-07-23, version 2.0.2*

I’m always a bit hesitant when it comes to interactive choice games like this but I can confidently say you will not regret buying this game. The storyline is so intriguing and with all of the collectibles and different things you can unlock, it’s definitely worth buying the full game!

### 1/5 — It’s just pay to play bull

*2026-08-09, version 2.0.2*

I can only do one chapter after paying $1 plus tax? Screw you ppl fr, I’m not paying $20 or more to unlock more chapters this is such bull. If I could get a refund I would, this is ridiculous.

### 1/5 — 打不开

*2026-08-06, version 2.0.2*

### 1/5 — Arnaque

*2026-07-24, version 2.0.2*

Le jeux est bien mais tu n'a le droit que à quelques chapitres le reste est payant il faut prévenir à l'avance avant d'acheter le jeux .

### 1/5 — First game is great - second, not so much.

*2026-07-22, version 2.0.2*

TLDR; No warnings of AI use, frustrating endings, and weird visuals for the second game.

The title is exactly what this review is about.

The first game was genuinely phenomenal. Great storyline along with choices, and amazing visuals. I played it multiple times over just to see where the story goes if I make this choice vs. this choice, and obviously, the visuals. (trying not to give spoilers lol) Really, really happy with this game.

The second? 

I hated it. Not immediately, it slowly built up throughout the game.

1st. The visuals looked… kinda different this time around. I can’t put my finger on it, but I just didn’t like it compared to the first. Whatever. I kept playing, not a huge deal.

2nd. I started to notice how dumb some of the endings were. “Haha, you shouldn’t have done that!” For something as tiny as picking up a cup or something. Obviously the first game had its fair share of endings that I would consider “dumb”, but never to this extent and never this many. I moved on and kept playing, though annoyed.

3rd. I finally got down to an ending. Not a good one, but still an ending. You wanna know what the first thing I noticed was? Entire ending was made by AI. Legitimately the entire thing.

Now, this was a text ending. I got real used to these since they appeared throughout the entire game, with the text appearing on the BLACK screen (you know, like a normal game 😒). But this time, it had actual scenes behind it that were entirely “curated” by AI, that could’ve easily just been the same black screen the rest of the game had.

I noticed this afterwards, but at least a majority of the captions also were likely created by AI.

That was the straw that broke the camel’s back.

I wanna make it very clear that, if it’s not obvious enough, I despise AI. I would not have paid for these games had I been informed that there was use of AI in them, simply because I refuse to support companies that pull this BS under our noses.

There were absolutely no notices or obvious ways to know that this game had been created by AI, especially with all of the good reviews. This is the part that outrages me the most, because again, I would’ve never supported this game series had I known.

I get it. Sometimes you have to cut corners as game devs. But let’s maybe cut corners as in hire-way-less-qualified-people rather than let’s-use-an-ai-that-doesn’t-know-what-the-f-it’s-doing.

Please do not buy these games.

### 1/5 — 充钱的时候能完 现在玩不了了

*2026-07-16, version 2.0.2*

留学生的账号在国外要下载学校的东西ip改不回来。我在澳洲买的玩了一个晚上好端端的，回国后强制更新后就地域限制玩不了了。如果是这样子的话请你把钱退给我，不要既要又要，我不是羊毛。

### 1/5 — เล่นได้น้อย

*2026-07-11, version 2.0.2*

เล่นได้นิดเดียวต้องซื้อเพิ่มถึงจะเล่นได้ต่อ

### 1/5 — 李泰ルートに非常に失望しました

*2026-06-30*

李泰ルートを楽しみにしていましたが、ハッピーエンドの内容にまったく満足できませんでした。展開が短く、主人公と長い時間を共に歩むような幸せな結末もなく、期待していたものとは大きく違いました。
別ルートと比べても描写の差が大きく、李泰ルートの扱いには強い不満があります。改善されない限り、評価は1つ星のままです。

### 1/5 — เริ่ด

*2026-06-30, version 2.0.1*

### 1/5 — ครั้งเดียวพอ

*2026-06-28, version 2.0.1*

เสียเงินซื้อ29บาทเล่นได้ไม่กี่ตอน แล้วต้องมาเสียอีก รายค่ายครบทุกตอน400กว่าบาทนู้นไม่น่าหลงมาเลย หนีไปๆ

### 1/5 — จ้า

*2026-06-26, version 2.0.1*

สนุกนะแต่เสียเงินซ้ำซ้อนไม่รู้จะเล่นไปทำไม

### 5/5 — Love love love

*2026-08-12, version 2.0.2*

Really well written and directed, im very emotionally invested in the story 🥲 I’ve completed part 1 and currently on part 2, the paths are more complex such as having pivotal choices that catch up to you later down the line. Absolutely worth it (and the cast are fineeee)

### 5/5 — Sooo Good!

### 5/5 — รีวิววววว !

*2026-08-01, version 2.0.2*

ตัวเกมส์ถือว่าคุ้มในราคา 29 บาท แบบภาพ ซาวด์ นักแสดง เนื้อเรื่องดีมาก แต่ก็จะมีค่าใช้จ่ายในเกมส์อีกที อาจจะแพงไปในบางมุมมองแต่สำหรับเราก็ถือว่ายอมจ่ายได้ คือทั้งบท นักแสดง การกำกับ คอสตูม ฉากอีก คุ้มแหละในราคานี้ สนุกๆ
