I simply love this game, have played it since its first release. I just have one simple thing to say, I think it's time that the MC says "I love you" to atleast lucy for now
I mean, writing is really amazing, and you really knows how write in style.
But, One component is missing.
Lovey-dovey is missing , its blunt, too formal.
There were many moments when i would have squeezed the life out of girl by hugging her…But mc in game got chocked and turned into formality, bit robotic , unemotional.
Anyway its still very good. As i said, youreally knows how to wrap words nicely and it was pleasant to read.
Spoiler free! This game is easily one of the best AVN's I've read so far, as for someone who plays these games mainly for the lore rather than the scenes. The romantic chemistry between everyone was very organic. The writing and setting were all neatly planned and executed. At first it was about internal problems and conflicts but it got dialed up to an 11 when the real story started about the shady happenings in the city that our protagonist has been living in. There's really nothing much else to say other than this was very well made! If i was to be ask if there was something to be improved on, i might stretch it and say "Speed of days" or "in game time". If you were to take the days and everything that's been happening in the story, it'd be pointing out that everything happened so fast within just days where as it shouldve taken at least a few months if it were to happen realistically. This isn't inherently bad though, as it avoided the thing that most AVN's do which is dragging out some bullshit for content padding. If it needs to be that fast then i don't mind that much as i understand that thinking of more content is not that easy of a task. But to be honest, i think im just biased about the pacing thing because i couldnt get enough of the storyline LMAO (so don't mind me about "realistic timing" this is an AVN afterall and like i said, im just salty that i reached the end so fast and i wanted more). On a serious note, it really is one of the best AVN's out there. I've read/played tons of AVN's (and story-driven sandboxes)and i can confidently say that this is the 7th game that i placed in my S-tier AVN's alongside the greatest AVN's in this site. I won't drop game names out of respect for the dev but i think if you know, you know (currently i only have 8 games on that list and i've played close to about 60 AVN's). Thank you for this wonderful piece that im happily attached to now. Keep up the good work and i hope for the best Cosy!!! PS: I was gonna rate this game much much earlier (like close to 2 months ago) i think but i forgot and got distracted by other AVN's lol.
I'd enjoy the rest of content especially after the 0.9 chapter but I hope that the next update will took longer time to finish because I love the story
This has quickly become one of my favorite AVNs ever. Of all time. It feels like it was made specifically for me:
Inheriting a business: check
Top tier love interests with good variety: check
Clear communication between the MC and the girls: check
And on top of that, all the intrigue with the Founding Families, and just generally being incredibly well written... I'm hooked, and I cannot wait to see what happens next!
I'm really enjoying this story. I like the girls and want to know more about each of them but I really wish there was more Lucy. She was so sweet and the interactions with her were cute in the beginning but I feel like she's been pushed out by all the others in the harem. It's hard to write content for so many but I feel like she needs more time with the MC so that she's "seen" like she was in the beginning.
I do agree that I feel as though furthering Lucy's story would be nice. To be honest, I was expecting some form of a follow-up 'retaliation' from her mother, to be honest. I mean, the cafe is really close to where she lives so there is no way her mother doesn't know where she is currently staying.
The challenge, I imagine, would be maintaining good pacing. Especially considering we are in the middle of establishing the dynamic between the MC and the other Founding Family heads and their daughters (Sarah, Hannah, Cathrine and Elizabeth).
I agree. I think this is one of the biggest issues with Harem themed games in general is pacing and development and giving everyone the attention they need/deserve.
Overall I think Cosy Cafe is doing a good job of managing that but as a player I can't help but want more. I think ultimately I just don't want anyone but particularly Lucy to be lost in the shuffle.
Yea, it is sort of a necessary evil, when you think about it. Everyone has their favorites and so no matter what someone will be wishing their favorite gets "more" attention. All you can really hope for is that the pacing remains solid, which I agree with you that Cosy does a great job of keeping the pace.
I think I mentioned it before in a comment, but I would love to know more about the clumsy white-haired girl, Isabelle.
I really do enjoy this game so far, every bit of it. But i gotta say that Sarah is my absolute favorite and I love the direction and pace its going at, i just simply need more of it. All of it even. Love the other girls too, but Sarah is precious.
I'm mixed between Sarah and kitten then again I'm 6'3 so small people are just precious in general to me, but I do like the others as well and I'm hoping for more with Hannah she seems she'd be fun to join the squad fully
I love this game. Definitely in top 5 story category. The characters are loveable, the story is engaging, the writing is good( no trying to understand what they are meaning due to bad English/translation) this is a must play!

Hello, may I ask when the sequel will be released?
0.11 should be out on patreon mid December some time.
I'm really looking forward to the sequel, and I hope that the sequel will be much longer than in 0.10, where 2 days of continuation were added.

Awesome review, thanks so much!
You're very much welcome ^^

0.11 is around 25k words, so a couple of hours probably, depending on how fast you get through it.
