139 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Being able to influence the pace and nature of this relationship is one of the game's strongest features because affection feels like something that develops organically rather than a reward obtained by selecting a series of obviously correct dialogue choices.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
51 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Its approach to identity and relationships is particularly effective because customization serves the narrative rather than functioning purely as decoration.

sweet visual novel with a cosy story and characters and great soundtrack. i ended up buying some of the dlc for the weeks and the wedding as well as the soundtrack and i am so happy to support this game and its creators because i can see how much effort and love went into making it. its also longer than you think lol
