    • “My most annoying part about this game was how it just threw you into it, no explanation, no leading into the story, just *plop* 'you are immigrant kids making a clubhouse, go do your thing.' This was honestly a weird choice in my opinion.”
    • “As well, the daytime menu music can become grating in one of the storylines.”
    • “Gameplay: I also like that replays include hints to let you know when you'd be straight-up repeating a storyline.”

    • “The daytime menu music can become grating in one of the storylines.”
    • “I don't know if this is intentional, but some music tracks can seem a little off-time, or the separate character audio tracks (awesome touch, by the way) can kind of go off time.”
