    The team behind the game did a great job with the art and story, and they deserve credit for it. However, I felt disappointed by how they included paid elements in the game. In the middle of the story, you have to pay to make important choices, which really bothered me. It's frustrating when you can't fully enjoy the story because you can't or don't want to pay for those options. I would prefer to just pay for the game upfront or for extra stories rather than be restricted from making decisions. I also dislike the wheel of fortune mechanic in games. It feels like you're just spending a lot of money or time hoping for good luck, even though the chances are slim, and sometimes the items you need aren't even available on the wheel. That, at least, is something you can choose to engage with, unlike being forced to pay for choices that affect the main story. Because of this, I decided to uninstall the game.

    The plot of this game is amazing, with well-written storylines complemented by some passionate love scenes that are just right and don't overshadow the storyline. The characters are all unique and have traits that you slowly uncover based on your decisions. The artwork is lively and vibrant, catching your eye. However, a downside is the need to purchase good choices, especially for romantic scenes that impact the game's outcome. This aspect can be frustrating for players as it pressures them to spend money to progress. Overall, though, the game is truly fantastic.

    I find the story routes really enjoyable, and I appreciate that the optional coin dialogue choices lead to bonus scenes without influencing the outcomes. As I've continued playing, I've realized that unlocking routes permanently through coins will be a lengthy process unless I choose to make real money purchases. It would be great if there were additional uses for the "spin the wheel" trinkets once all the stories are unlocked – perhaps the option to exchange them for coins.

    Wow, I absolutely adored this app! It's just fantastic! The story is just amazing (so far). I made the decision to pause my reading for now. During the game, you have to make many "choices". However, there are also "premium" choices that can be quite pricey. To be honest, some of them are so expensive that if you were to choose all of them, you could end up spending over $500 before reaching the end of the story. I personally feel that this is a bit unpleasant :(. I wouldn't have any issue with paying for chapters or the entire story! But spending over $500 for these "special choices" seems a bit excessive unfortunately :(

    I'm glad you like it! The art is amazing and the story is really captivating. I'm not usually into romance, but this is done so well and respectfully. It would be nice if there were simpler ways to get bonus content, but I get why it's like this. The gameplay is fantastic even without the extras. I'm hoping to gather enough coins to unlock all bonuses eventually and replay the whole thing. I'd definitely suggest it, 10/10!
