### 5/5 — 面白い

*2024-05-12*

バグ等はありませんでしたしっかりプレイできます！
お値段的にも内容的にも満足です！！！

### 5/5 — 今だったら

*2023-10-13*

2023年現在
セールで購入して、
何不自由なく最後まで
楽しめました。
定期的に本編と合わせて
読みたくなる作品です。
ただ、定価だと今時高いかなぁ…。

### 5/5 — Nice game but……

*2023-07-15*

Could you please update this app to add English or Chinese？PLZ！！！

### 4/5 — ゲーム自体は最高

*2020-04-29*

今更見直されることもないでしょうが、未だにクラッシュ、音声バグあり。

ゲーム自体は感情移入して泣いちゃうぐらいでしたが、バグのせいで変に現実に戻されてしまうのがショックでした。

### 2/5 — クラッシュバグ健在、その他バグも…

*2020-04-26*

プレイ環境:iPad 第6世代　iOS:13.3.1
まず数年前のレビューからある章のクラッシュバグは
直っていませんでした。(落ちる箇所も同じでした)
この数年間で対策をしてこなかったのか、なんのアプデをしたのかを問いただしたくなりますが、まだ他にもバグを多数見つけました。

•オート機能発動時のセリフがそのセリフ終了まで消えない
•アプリをホームボタン経由で一度別のアプリに移動したのち戻ってくると、主題歌のような曲がプレイ中であろうとタイトルに戻ろうと流れる。
•携帯電話を使用した会話の際閉じないと会話が進められない場合がある
•通知確認画面をスライドさせると謎のSEが聞こえる
•BGMにノイズが走る、ブツブツになる、もはや消える
など、数多くありました。
しかし、進行不能バグを加味しても値段以上の内容はありますし
今後のアプデでこれらが修正がされた場合には星5相応のアプリになると思います！
しかし、今回は進行不能という致命的なバグがあったため、星は2つにさせていただきます。

### 1/5 — iPhone6s

*2019-11-28*

アプリ開いた瞬間クラッシュします

### 4/5 — ファンディスク

*2019-11-27*

無事プレイできたのでバグは直ってるかと。内容に関しては二次創作感が否めないですが個人的には、るかのシナリオが好みです。
sound libraryで曲を聴いたままアプリ画面外でもバックグラウンドで再生し続けてくれる点が最高です。

### 5/5 — 問題なし

*2019-10-15*

他の古いレビューではバグ報告が多数挙げられてますが、なんの不具合もなく全シナリオ網羅出来ました（iPhone8 iOS13.1.2）。
内容については好みがわかれるかもしれませんが、複数シナリオでバラエティに富んでおりシュタゲファンなら抑えておいて損はないかと。まゆりシナリオが最も胸を打ちました。
メールツリーの仕様はコンプしたい人にとってありがたい作り。
音楽も相変わらず素晴らしい。
私は買って良かったと思っています。
またこのようなシュタゲ派生作品が出ることを強く希望。

### 4/5 — 最終章はプレイ出来ない仕様です

*2017-12-20*

現状、というより前からですが、
最終章『三世因果のアブダクション』は
アプリ版では途中で落ちるので最後までプレイ出来ません。

pc.psを持っている方はそちらを購入した方がいいです。

※章ごとに続いてる訳ではないので最終章が無くても線形拘束のフェノグラム自体は面白いです。
pc.ps版が買えないのであれば、アプリ版でも充分楽しめます。

### 1/5 — 画面小さすぎ

*2017-06-04*

タイトル通り。
正直買わない方がいいです。
例えるならスマホ画面Windowsサイズをやっている感じです。
改善する気無さそうですしユーザーを舐めているのかと。
敢えてもう一度言います。
買わない方がいいです。
