  • story173 mentions

    The story primarily revolves around three main characters, focusing on their interactions and relationships, but lacks meaningful choices that affect the narrative, making it feel more like a passive experience.

    • “The story keeps you half paying attention, and the lewds are pretty good.”
    • “Overall, the story's theme of friendship and proving oneself reached its natural and comfortable conclusion, leaving the story open for continuation.”

    • “The story is absolutely horrendous.”
    • “The plot dragged along at a snail's pace and the girls offered nothing of interest, so unfortunately, I don't remember much else.”
  • graphics43 mentions

    • “The graphics are beautiful and the music is perfectly fitting.”
    • “Stunning visuals.”
    • “Amazing artwork as we have come to expect from the designers at Winged Cloud, this time around we have a modern setting in the city and its surrounding areas.”
    • “The 'combat' is written in text but the artworks don't even show the monsters... they just show the scenery, and in 99% of the cases not even a sign of combat (at the beginning a pistol and that's it) -> unlovingly rushed and priority definitely not on the story.”
    • “This game really needs more graphics to make it feel less static and more alive: more poses, more expressions.”
    • “The characters feel like they should have had a few more expressions, and there weren't that many background visuals or different in-game locations for that matter.”
  • music29 mentions

    The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some players finding it fitting and effective, while others describe it as repetitive, bland, or even annoying.

    • “The graphics are beautiful and the music is perfectly fitting.”

    • “After a few hours of gameplay, I can assure you the game is great 10/10.”
