It's kinda hard to mention how I really feel about this game. This is because overall, I feel like the games positives has more going for it than the negatives. I'll start with the positives. The presentation for the game is phenomenal. The art is beautiful. The music is incredible while being super catchy and easily something I would listen to on my own time. I love the voice acting that is present in this game. The common route is also quite good, as I find it pretty enjoyable due to how funny it is and how much it involves pretty much the important characters for the game. The main cast is also super strong and pretty memorable. When it comes to the negatives for the game, it's what really prevents me from giving this game a really high score. This is mainly because of the protagonist. For WHATEVER REASON, the character pretty much completely changes the moment you are locked into a character route. In the common route, Kohei is a pretty funny character. That changes the moment you get into a route and the character just becomes incredibly different depending on the route you are on. The "Reasons" given absolutely make no sense in the long run and results in some baffling outcomes. This results in the games writing becoming noticeably worse once you know you are on a route. In my opinion, I felt like half of the possible routes in the game were incredibly weak and not that enjoyable. The routes I did enjoy are quite good, although sadly I experienced all of them first without realizing how weak the worse routes were. With what was mentioned in the paragraph above, the other bad thing about these routes is that you know how everything is going to get resolved in the end after your completion of a second route (Besides one). So anything negative that happened in a route is basically going to get negated when you realize how the solution is going to happen! The negatives of the game don't make up the majority of the gameplay experience, but they are strong enough to influence how much I enjoyed this game overall. The first 80%, I'm enjoying the game quite a lot! The other 20% is basically huge ??? appearing in my mind and it makes me question why I'm even trying to finish this game towards completion. With that being said, I still think the game is worth experiencing. But don't expect it to be some sort of masterpiece you'll want to replay multiple times.

If it's the first time you've heard of the game, it's highly recommended, but you have to prepare for the Nagamori route

A very interesting old gem that's been polished to shine. Great story beats and nostalgic kind of narrative flow. Only personal complaint is a mixed bag of heroines. Three of them are great. The other two behave like they haven't reached mental maturity yet, and thus looks strange next to the aformentioned three. Although one of them can be forgiven for being a very... Clannad-esque character of the times. All in all, highly recommended. It's visually beautiful, emotionally touching, and a lot of fun.
