### 3/5 — Nice!!

*2026-08-13, version 1.8.4*

I do like the stories & all, but there could be an easier way to get diamonds and hearts and so on, but good!

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2026-08-09, version 1.8.4*

I have only read 1 book so far but fantastic

### 5/5 — WOW

*2026-08-07, version 1.8.4*

Cuuuuute

### 3/5 — could be way more enjoyable

*2026-07-23, version 1.8.4*

Hi! so this game is super fun, definitely something i like to play in my free time. but there’s a couple things that stop this game from being 5 stars and being the best simulation game. In this game all the good paths cost gems, usually like 17 gems, and you only get 1 gem for completing a chapter and one gem for watching a ad that’s like 3 minutes long. i find it so hard to find this game enjoyable when i basically go broke choosing one good path. my only request is maybe giving us one or two more gems per chapter or ad, or maybe make the ads not 3 minutes long😭🙏

### 5/5 — LGBTQ

*2026-07-11, version 1.8.4*

Love it thank you

### 2/5 — Ads and earning

*2026-07-11, version 1.8.4*

There are too many ads. I will be in the middle of reading something and it goes to an ad. Also, there’s now way to earn more diamonds. I mean a decent amount. Each choice is way too many and you only earn 1 per ad.

### 3/5 — Great game but..

*2026-07-08, version 1.8.4*

I really like this game. The many choices to be made are far superior to any similar game I’ve found..
HOWEVER, it’s ridiculously expensive to make any premium choices. 
I’ve spent over $50 on 1 full story plus 3 or 4 chapters of another and I still wasn’t able to make all the premium choices. I don’t believe I’ll keep the 2 monthly subscriptions I purchased simply for that reason. I would HATE this game if I didn’t have the $ and had to only play the free version.

### 5/5 — 10/10

*2026-06-13, version 1.8.4*

It’s so good the drama and romance in the one I’m watching is so good i 
love it

### 1/5 — Decent options require payment

*2026-06-07, version 1.8.4*

I don't like that decent options within the stories require purchase. The non purchase options are horrible (ie. Clothing) and the characters say mean things when the paid clothing options are not chosen.

### 2/5 — ads

*2026-05-31, version 1.8.4*

was a good app but now you can’t even finish a chapter without having three ads minimum in between, its gone down so i’m deleting
