Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“I played this game for the story and cute design. Eventually I got pretty bored with the story but I still continued to finish the game. From my opinion it was a pretty boring and slow paced story with no tension or excitement.”
“A cute and wholesome game, but the characters and story lack depth. There is no development or tension in the game that leaves you bored. Only recommend buying if on sale.”
