Excellent game, I can't really put more into this atm. The ending was heavy.

It's a lovely little game/visual novel by DREAMFEEL. Very artsy, very gentle. It feels like... a warm blanket in a snowstorm. A little frightening, but not dangerous. And safe and warm.

Its length is short, maybe 2+ hrs. It's a lovely story about love, found family, and the trans experience. 9/10

I would suggest increasing the size of the eraser or pressing "F" on the keyboard to erase everything. My wrist -was- a little achy after it without it. Much easier with the accessibility options.

This game is lovely, interesting, and is extremely easy to get into. I honestly really appreciate how much they care for the players, and offer lots of accessibility options and content warnings. Overall, a great experience so far.

I wish there was a "Meh" setting for reviews.

This game seems to be extremely similar to another "Siege Survivor" game called This War of Mine, a fine game that doubles as a statement on the horrors of war and the UTTER desolation and despair that it tends to cause. Whereas that game was a deep pool of mechanics, including the impacts of murdering another person has on a person's psyche, this game was a bit shallower.

The story is a bit light on the ground and doesn't give the same emotional punch as its contemporaries. gameplay is fine, but just... yeah.

6/10

Played like a mobile management game. Very repetitive, gameplay loop wasn't fun for me due to the tediousness of actually growing the product. Feels like I should be holding it down with my finger on an Ipad or something similar.

Good rogue-like, very focused on storytelling and the concepts of family and love. Still very focused on battle.

Good for a solid 12+ hours of entertainment. Art direction interesting and definitely something I haven't seen before.

4/5

So!
Visuals: CGs are nice, crisp, a little simple, but their subject matter is criminally underrepresented. These girls are THICC. Good amount for your money, and overall, very lovely. B+

Vocals: These actresses are working their asses off, and you can really hear it! They each play their part very well, breathing a great life into their characters. Special recognition of the voice of Puppy! A+

Music: Well, It's... Simple, Not droning, and there's something to be said for the choices used in each scene. I'm not sure exactly what it is, but it's passable for the amount of time you'll be playing. C

Writing: I'm a little new to this genre, but I'm happy with the writing. None of it felt particularly stupid, and the characters are believable. There's definitely some tongue-in-cheekiness to be found, the writers seem to be very genre-aware, and rag on it a little without being obnoxious. B+

UI: Good, Quick, easy to use and well crafted. B

Bonus ♥♥♥♥: There's a LOT of extra ♥♥♥♥ in here, vocal stories, whole extra bonus scenes, and a blooper reel! It's great to see devs giving sweet bonuses for free, when there's so much paygating out there. Good Dev. A+ for you!

Overall: It's a very solid 3-5 hour VN, With a good variety of body and personality types, writers with self-awareness, cute girls and excellent voice acting, this is a treat for anyone who enjoys the subjects.

Overall Score: A- Good ♥♥♥♥!

Secret Word: Appreciate

An interesting test! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. For its price, it's very cheap, and fun for a hour or so

Good game. Cute Avatars. Fun games. Not much else to say

Good game.
