Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“Play Ankake Spa's previous release, Scarlet Curiosity, instead. This game reuses a lot of gameplay patterns, music, assets, etc compared to Scarlet Curiosity. But especially aspects such as the music fits in the previous game way better…”
“Sadly, a bit of a yikes from me. Not because the game isn't fun, IF it worked properly. May not happen for you, but for me, there's massive FPS drops during heavy particle moments in boss fights causing such awful lag that I often get hit…”
