Aside from some grammer errors and lack of a soundtrack it's a nice game story wise. You may have to play with a friend so they can have side commentary to help make it more cozy of an experience but it's nice and charming for the price.

I absolutely loved this game, this game involves an old time chat session maybe similar to myspace or something but i never used myspace before. in this game you make choices to have conversations between three people, lucas, joanna, and serena. what made this game unique to me was the fact was that it kinda felt like talking with real poeple besides well..not, it can be dull like for example no music in the background except the main menu but it makes since at the same time, trying not to spoil to much, i think for the price its just fine, with atleast a couple endings, this game only took me 2 and a half hours, maybe 3 if you get another ending, i love the designs of all the characters and the chats they have, felt like talking with a friend or boyfriend/girlfriend. I did a playthrough on it, still on going at the time of this review if you want to see if its worth the purchase. https://youtu.be/eyDwb1EvJKI

First of all, i am curious about this game because this is still freshly released by an indie company and it's appear on my search results when i am looking for visual novels (for killing time obviously). Then i purchase this game because good price and i took interest on the gameplay. So, here's what i can say : 1. This game is VERY SHORT because technically it's just like our real life internet chatting, but we do that with three characters. 2. Do not expect much from this game because, remember, this game is more like "WORD GAME" than your usual dating sims. 3. So many typos i found on this game but that's not really bad. 4. If you ask me about the story, let's just say it's more like your usual youthful situation, about school and college life. And the story aspect is really got me good because somehow, i am touched a bit by how all of the characters tell about their life or stuffs that they do and share to us (the hero). I must admit, yeah the story is kinda good but not that really bad. 5. I want to say that ummmmm this game is kinda play with your emotions. Ok, so my final verdict is : 7/ 10 because it's simplicity and ummm, very short plot especially. If this game also add more visual novel elements like scenes and your heroine with background scene (yeah i know it's hard to say), maybe this game will be good and yeah, extend a bit about the plot. Aside from that, i have a good time while play this and appreciate dev's workhard. Additional notes : I think yeah, should this game is combine visual novel aspect with this game chat system, definitely a beautiful works. I think for devs, can consider this review of mine. That's all what i can say due my personal experiences, Once again, thank you for make a beautiful game. Update : Already play the newly updated chapter 9 and the devs is really makes me got my feelings played again. But that's good improvement actually.
