AURAPHOENIX1500'S PROFILE

Having just finished this game with the best ending (no thank you on the other ones, I'm good), I feel it'd be a crime not to leave a review. So here we go.

Hoo boy, what an experience. I haven't played a game that enveloped me in such a story - and an ending that made me cry - since Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky. (Hey, that rhymed)

But...wow, that was seriously one of the best RPG Maker games I've ever played. I absolutely loved how well you fused the dating sim and horror genres together. (The Haunting events were awesome too, but I couldn't get the Loop 3 2F Elevator event to work. Perhaps, instead of being random from when you enter a room, events like that and the gym events could instead have been triggered by standing still for a certain time? I don't know, it's already amazing on its own, and I did see the event compilation, so...eh).

By the way, I went for each of the girls in the order they were arranged on the title screen. I know you're meant to choose whoever you want in whatever order, and the general story doesn't change too much for it, but would you mind telling me what you picked, when playing through the game yourself?

Finally, if there were to be a "Golden Ending," I'd say it'd be something along the lines of "|Spoilers| sends Kyle back in time before the whole shebang even starts - maybe even before he transfers to St. Giles"...which would make for a pretty sweet visual novel, now that I think about it. Particularly if it's before Serena's accident...

(SPOILERS)



or maybe right after, when she's in the hospital, and Kyle choosing to stay with her gives her the very POWER TO CHEAT DEATH ITSELF, BECAUSE WHO THE HELL DOES IT THINK SHE IS!?



(*ahem*) Sorry, I've been listening to a lot of Super Robot Wars music (to the point where I was fully expecting Kyle to go all "Heroic Second Wind" during Prom Night and beat the **** out of You-Know-Who.

But, all in all, and ignoring my ramblings, this is an absolutely FANTASTIC game, one that I would recommend to...okay, well, not everyone, but to at least a lot of people.

9.9/10

I would pay for a REAL dating sim with these girls...even with You-Know-Who and |Spoilers|.

Keep making great games, and have a wonderful day!
