    • “Its a really good game; so far the story has been captivating, and the different game mechanics for different scenarios have made for an enjoyable gaming experience.”
    • “There's a lot to learn about the world that you and your daughter live in and the lives of everyone surrounding you, meaning that the story does keep you captivated.”
    • “The premise is not bad, but the story is poorly executed.”
    • “It really felt rushed to me, as if the storywriter was phoning it in and just picked out a stock character plotline off the shelf.”

  • gameplay
    36 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some players finding it addictive and engaging due to its stat-building mechanics and various activities, while others criticize it for being slow, repetitive, and bogged down by poorly executed narrative elements. Many users noted that the game relies heavily on text and lacks sufficient incentives for exploration, leading to a tedious experience at times. Overall, while the mechanics can be enjoyable, they often feel bloated and underdeveloped, detracting from the overall gaming experience.

    • “Its a really good game; so far the story has been captivating and the different game mechanics for different scenarios have made for an enjoyable gaming experience.”
    • “Awesome game with rewarding gameplay, engaging story, and very comfy nonetheless.”
    • “The developers failed one of the most basic, fundamental requirements of game design: 'show, don't tell.' You'll spend a huge amount of time not playing the game, but clicking through endless lines of poorly written visual novel text cutscenes because the developers couldn't figure out how to relate their narrative through the game mechanics.”
    • “For gameplay purposes, the user interface for this game is mostly just 2D static text/images... it might as well be a web page.”
    • “Writing and worldbuilding is decent, but the gameplay itself is slow and painfully boring.”
  • music
    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has received positive feedback, with many players praising the soundtrack as "amazing" and enjoyable, even if some choose to play with the music muted.

    • “I'll probably look around if I can get my hands on the OST instead of relying on the in-game music room.”
  • graphics
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game have received mixed reviews, with many users criticizing the simplistic 2D art assets and lack of substantial visual improvements, leading to a lackluster presentation reminiscent of older games.

Overall, the graphics are seen as serviceable but not particularly impressive.

    • “Simple but good graphics.”
    • “Audio/visuals: the art is nice and anime style, the colors are easy on the eyes, and it gives you plenty of indicators on what you can do, where you can go, etc.”
    • “The overall design and UI of the game is clunky, but this is an indie game, and the game mood & artwork are soft and cozy.”
    • “While there are options to change the resolution for the game, all this does is scale up the simplistic 2D art assets used to make the game, which makes little or no difference to the graphics quality.”
    • “While the artwork itself might be considered passable, the visual presentation here is negligible; it might as well be a slideshow or a YouTube video.”
    • “Pac-Man, Space Invaders, and Asteroids had more advanced animation and visuals than this game does.”

    Players generally find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and overly lengthy, often detracting from the overall enjoyment of the story.

  • replayability
