I genuinely cannot believe I got suckered into playing out what appeared to be a beautiful romance story, only for the game's single, unambiguously, objectively good ending to be locked behind you turning the relationship between the protag and the love interest not just poly, but OPEN. I get that some people have relationships like that, but a little bit of dang warning would've been nice before I paid $20 to get cucked.

listen, this did something good enough to give me a feeling, just a feeling that the Dev might have seen Revolutionary Girl Utena. I could be wrong about that though, so please take what i say with a grain of salt. i just love the story that this has. If you have a love for interesting stories and characters, please take the time to play this.
Clever writing, fun and well-written characters, plenty of lore, gorgeous art and music, and a lot of charm. Pretty much everything you could ask for in a visual novel and absolutely worth checking out.
Great story, Great characters, Great VN
