March 2025
Hoshizora no Memoria's presentation is absolutely stunning. The art in this visual novel is breathtaking, and the music — especially during the stargazing and Mare segments — is nothing short of beautiful. That said, the writing often feels repetitive and bland compared to other visual novels. While this isn’t unusual for a slice-of-life, it still leaves much to be desired. The comedy, though lighthearted at first, quickly becomes repetitive, with many jokes feeling poorly recycled by the five-hour mark. Additionally, most of the heroines show little meaningful development by the end, making their routes feel underwhelming. Also, the fact that a Chinami ending exists is downright disgusting. 7/10

this is a very heartwarming albeit sad at times, visual novel. i would suggest following a guide to get the routes in order as they build off of eachother. also if this is your first visual novel, i would start elsewhere, but if you're not new to the format, definitely give it a read, i enjoyed it thoroughly. i never read the non HD version so i cant speak to the differences, this one looks and plays great though. however the font is a little small, so it might not be ideal for handhelds or otherwise small monitors.

First off, this game has a patch, though it probably isn't necessary to the story as a whole, the VN has great music, entertaining humor and an engaging story, and likable characters, except for the sister. one of my only real gripes with it is that there isn't a skip to next option so that you can just get to the next choices when you want to get the rest of the endings

I'm a bit torn on this one. It has many well-paced emotional segments that almost drove me to tears, but the conherence and quality of the storytelling vary dramatically throughout different parts of the story. I guess a way to enjoy the story more is not expecting this to be a romance story, but instead a story about "light" (for lack of better terms), about emotional intelligence, and about the meaning of family. The story actually shines in these non-romance departments. Hoshimemo is a heartwarming story with splended production quality and atmosphere, with a bit of supernatural element. The music is seriously good here. This actually reads, looks, and sounds like a typical Yuzusoft moege, with a bit more overarching melodrama, half the amount of sugar, and also way more than double the amount of suspension of disbelief needed. Character-wise, most characters are pretty fleshed out but are also extraordinarily terrible at communicating, yet so much of the plot in some routes depends on miscommunication and teenager angsty... To be honest, I almost dropped this title after finishing my first route, Minahoshi Asuho's. The chemistry is terrible, and the development and resolution have fairly bad pacing. However, my next route, Hisakaki Komomo's, is pretty good. It has solid chemistry development, intertwining well with the unraveling of a supernatural mystery. The immersiveness of the mystery part is also quite good. Like, the story is kind of obvious, with some small twists dropped here and there, but I still enjoyed it. On the technical side, the HD version has an uncompromisingly huge window size and uncompromisingly tiny font, which makes it hard to read without a big monitor that can handle the HDness. I recommend getting familiar with Windows Magnifier tool to assist reading (Windows 10's magnifier can be set to only magnify a part of the screen).

I only bought this VN because it was cheap and I saw that it had an absurd long playtime on vndb, I didn't really have high expectations for it and boy was I wrong. The story was really good and the artwork in this game was beautiful especially in Aoi's route and Yume's Route . you have to play all the routes to unlock the ''True Heroine'' considering the length of the routes in this game, your really gonna be in for a long ride. Some complaints that I have is the drama felt forced especially with Asuho and Aoi it was really hard to read because of how stupid the drama was but it was worth it since the True route was so good, also the game not having a ''skip to next choice option'' really ticked me off because you would literally have to restart everytime you switch to a new route. Overall this was a nice VN I give it a 7/10, the premise of chasing a childhood girl really hooked me into the game I just had to finish all the routes even if I didn't like it just so I can play the True route. Yume best girl
