This game is amazing, I’m on season 2 but I’m not sure why it won’t get past episode 9. The screen won’t load and I really want to finish the game! Please get back to me as soon as possible! Please and thank you!

### 2/5 — No choice

*2025-10-04, version 1.9*

I loved this game but it just got annoying, I’m only there for holly. I hate those boys, especially that emo one. he’s so annoying, and his jokes aren’t even funny. I’ll tweak if he calls me a nickname ONE MORE TIME. I hate how it so fricking buggy, and whenever I try getting a diamond it never works. And scams me into watching a ad,  yall are greedy and money hungry. Cause I get ads every the  I even TOUCH the game. Those dates are so boring if it’s not with the person you want :( 2/10 only put another star, cause they Atleast tried.

### 5/5 — A bit buggy

*2025-08-14, version 1.9*

I love the game, but episode 9 it says to download the new package that is available and it won’t download at all. Please help!

### 4/5 — Love this game

*2025-05-26, version 1.9*

I really love this game the storyline are so good and the characters they are amazing only problem I’m having is chapter 9 I think the load screen freezes I’ve tried to uninstall it then reinstall it but the chapter keeps freezing up I’m not sure if there’s a bug on the loading screen but it keeps doing this when I go on to it but apart from that the game is amazing

### 4/5 — No choice

*2025-03-01*

I love it but every time I want to have someone to be with it’s always some random person also there is barely any choices on who you like, so it’s pretty annoying when the person you don’t like the most. You have to go with.

### 4/5 — .

*2025-01-26, version 1.8*

I love this game but when I watch the adds for getting the crows and diamond it doesn’t give me anything, please fix this error

### 3/5 — Loved it but there’s a problem.

*2024-08-10, version 1.8*

So this game is really good! It has beautiful art work and intriguing storyline, I do have a problem however, when you watch ads for crowns the crowns don’t come through. Also when you lose crowns there is no other way to make them, so i would really like to see a way to make crowns. I know you can make them by levelling up characters but not all chapters have that opportunity. Also little thing about me, I hate saying no to virtual characters and I spent all my crowns on Killian 😭 (I’m a Dylan stan). Anyway, in conclusion, fix the bug and have a better way to make crowns as well as diamonds. I still enjoy playing the game and can’t wait to unlock all the scenes with Dylan 🤭🤪
