Review	This is a moege and in terms of what it tries to do, it's pretty good. It's up there on the levels of Yuzusoft and it can be a good thing or a bad thing. For me it's the latter. However, there isn't really too much to hate about the game when you consider Sylvia and Ria's routes. The other three routes aren't honestly worth reading and very tame. The game's story is pretty dry already and these routes don't do much. Ria's route does try to do some type of actual story telling unlike the other four routes, but it's not that spectacular enough to redeem most of the novel. It is however, sad and does tug some of your heart strings. You should play it if you have time to waste, it's pretty ok in that regard for the two routes I mentioned. Why do people even like Yuzusoft games?/10

#2 by kiru 2021-06-05 at 06:54	< report >No. The enforced route order is warranted enough. One of the few cases where it's quite important. That said, given the fandisc existing, this game isn't worth playing at all. Without it was already meh enough, but given its existence, what little value this game had kinda extinguished. This game also suffers from "better girl exists" syndrome. Sylvia is a princess and the amount of BS you'd need to go through to actually date a girl like that is obviously insane. Disregarding how much it'd change your life for the worse on top of it. Nobody would do that even remotely though, given how many much more likeable (and realistically available) girls exist. Sure, if you fall in love you fall in love. But again, given the obvious distance that automatically exists, that's incredibly unlikely. So her route.. doesn't make a lot of sense, yet is somewhat important. Quite a messy work, in a lot of ways. And with the FD very clearly showing that the writer had no idea why people criticized certain points, it's just a sad work.

You just say all this because the developers were extremely smart to lock the main route and force us to play all routes. This feels a small scale of the situation with muvluv, where you wont ever know how much you lost by skipping on extra and/or unlimited to just play alternative.

But to be honest, if you just thought a little you could see the thing with Ria a mile away before you get to her route.
#6 by animenger 2021-07-09 at 06:54	< report >#3 I'm all for routes leading into other routes but comparing this to Muv Luv of all things doesn't quite work imo. The quality of the 2 things being compared is MILES apart. Like they aren't even in the same dimmension. That said I'm not the "You're wrong I'm right!!!" type so if you had a good time with this VN then power to you!
