Community Insight:
Can we date Fenn or Guys dads.
When will you update new characters? How often will you do it? Some characters are like one to two months apart and its almost been three months since the last one since guy was released thanks. We enjoy the game. Id love to see more.
It is an amazing game, however, it is really hard to get diamonds to access special stuff so we would ask if you could make it easier to get diamonds.
So this game can be fun. The stories are silly and the dialogue feels like its written by a 15 year old but its really not unenjoyable and Ive certainly read worse. However, when it comes to missions and events the only way to finish them is to pay money for gems or power for missions. Thats why Im rating it 2 stars, if you dont pay for these things it will take forever to accrue gems and it would be impossible to fully finish the events. If you dont finish events storylines you miss out on cool/cute avatar items. Our next biggest complaint are the mission events, it takes a really long time (it can sometimes take us several days) to finish a mission to be able to move onto the next chapter. We swear it feels like the creators of this app have been slowing down the rate of ardor points given via missions. We have (unfortunately) spent a ton of money on this app, we really should exercise some more self control, but clearly we like it enough to keep playing. Its just frustrating because you absolutely will not get ahead if you dont spent money on this app.
It wont let us choose our avatar or select anything. And we like gay things.
We think its a good ideia to remove the symbol, thats make many people discomfortable, if you click, a star with a circle, please remove that thanks.
Best Mc x others game we ever played right aside Obey us.
Its very fun and very cool. We prefer you guys download it.
We have a lot of fun playing this game. We really enjoyed Ayakashi romance reborn and most of the other voltage games, we do have one request though. Voltage can you please make it so the japanese version of ayakashi is available globally. There are so many fans who would learn Japanese just to play the game.
Its honestly a great app. Great story telling. Great stories, great consorts. But we did come across an issue. We downloaded the app a while ago and deleted it, because we finished Guys story, then we decided to re-download it and transfer the data all of the data transferred, except for our spirit points, and our story with Guy was restarted. Not only that we started to lous path and then when it came to the first interlude, it said normal or premium, and we ended up buying the clothes with our room money for the premium and it still didnt give us the premium. Im not going to go throughout the whole story just to end up at another Interlude, and it give us the choice and spend money that we dont need to spend in order to get the story we want to. It honestly was a waste of our money. We contacted them, but they still havent got back with us. We ended up deleting the app because it made us so upset otherwise we wouldve kept it. Like we said, great storytelling. And great consorts. But its just too hard to get gems if you want the premium Interlude, then youre out of luck there, youre gonna have to buy it with your own money. We will continue playing princess in the mirror, and we will keep love 365, but we are not sure if Ill ever download this app again. Ive been playing voltage games for a while now. But we come across the same issue, in every single one of the apps its way too hard to get gems or even hearts Otome games are mostly targeted towards a younger girl audience, also, its becoming more popular in America, but we do know that Japan is not the same from America and in Japan we think kids have an allowance now in America not all of us have that. They cant expect young girls to have money to read their stories. Some young women are privileged to have enough money to spend on whatever, but some are not. Its too hard to get coins/gems/hearts, and almost every single case you will have to spend your own money, unless you login every single day and get coins or gems that way. We really do love their stories theres no other games like voltages apps, but its just too hard to reach their expectations. We cant all of afford to read the stories we went to read. We saw another review, and we agree please make this game more accessible, and all the voltage games more accessible to other readers/players! If that was the case, Im sure you guys could get more downloads.
Guy seems abusive, or at the very least controlling and possessive.
Our character is always talking bout going home but imma stay here we like it better than our world.
We really like how this is going so far its not to dramatic nor is it bland Im having a great time.
We really enjoy the game and think it should be more well known. Just a suggestion that would make it all the more better. When the Love Passes refresh, Id like it to add to the ones we had already had from the day before(if we didnt use them) All in all its a good game, would definitely recommend.
We wish this game was on the Nintendo switch along with other titles like The Princess In The Mirror, Be our Princess and Pirates In Love.
We wish the free Grayson first book counted for the sparkles in the event but they dont since they arent using passes Im not wasting money on the game because of the past experience below. Keeping this: we finished Tinos path in the incantations event and it hadnt given us completion reward or allowed us to get his epilogue. We hoped theyd fix this before the epilogues arent available anymore. And yes it completed it said the end like it does when you finish a story completely then loaded the events result page we didnt even get a response from them in any way. We even said just let us buy the epilogue for him and still got nothing. We stopped playing it we might eventually play it again but not any time soon.
When we saw an ad for this game we wanted to play it because we LOVE story games! But when we went to play it we were greeted with DARKNESS! And we always put some music on when we play our games and this game Completely cut off our music!! HATE THIS GAME.
Nah he handsome and cute and the others are handsome idk who to choose.
So we were playing and then professor Hawke shower and we were like OH MY GAWD MAY we KISS HIM INSTEAD?? And now idk what to do.
The only thing we got to say is. We love fenns path.
Honestly its really annoying you guys keep pumping out generic routes for characters that are the literal embodiment of a golden retriever but refuse to acknowledge or consider making a route for violet or the other side characters girls in the story , Ive read many reviews literally begging for the girls to get a route but nope ig costumers wants dont matter not like you get money from us or anything. Just admit youre homophobic.
Will Hawke become a love interest? He seems interesting. And any other side characters? We do appreciate the plot and ease of access and the story. Thank you for a wonderful free to play ad free peaceful gameplay :).
We really like the story and the world building, but the events require a lot of ardor points, which is a hassle for anyone who wants to complete all paths. (Also Violet should totally be a dateable character).
We played the first day and ever since we cant get the app to open past the start page. We have deleted the app and redownloaded it almost ten times and it does nothing. It tells us to check our connection but our connection is just fine with all our other apps. Itll go to the loading screen and then after loading it freezes on the start screen and we cant even press any buttons. We even restarted our phone and still nothing. Sad bc we were looking forward to playing Guys route :(.
We have been playing for over a year now and gone through most of the characters.. Im glad theres 2 routes so we can play again. Our issue is the story events.. You need to spend too much money to ever complete the event. Its really unfortunate because it stops many of us from being able to really enjoy the events also add some more characters please.. We love the game.
Great voice acting, visuals, and story. We're surprised this doesn't have more downloads bc it's literally so fun. Lou is the best EVER.
This is probably the best mobile otome game Ive ever played! The artwork is beautiful, the storylines are engaging, and the main character is always quick to speak her mind and jump into action. Definitely worth playing.
Hi Ive been playing this game for awhile we love the designs and the storylines its fun to play.
We like the stories however its frustrating that we get so invested and have to wait a whole day to get 5 passes to read 1 chapter that isnt even a long read. We wish it was more generous in giving love passes because im not spending our money on a mobile app im not interested in replaying or keeping on our phone after we finish it. Since one story on the consorts path has a lot of chapters, it realistically, based on how long it takes to get the love passes, would take about a month to complete just one story. Its more tempting to look up someone playing it on youtube than wait for the love passes to refill every day.
Okay, well get the annoying gotta pay for stuff but for the most part, its free if youre patient. But we want to tell people this before they play the game. You will start off with the main story for the tutorial, but you will have to option to pursue a specific guy in the story called the consort path. Our suggestion it to read just the consort paths. We played the consort paths first and enjoyed it more, but when you play the main story called the Princess path, everyone feels greedy about. And without giving spoilers, its not because they like you for you. The princess path shows the worst sides of them and we feel like if we read through the princess path first, we wouldnt go after most of them. If you dont care about that and just wanna read the drama, absolutely go for it. But if you want to like the dateable characters, go for the consort path.
We have really been enjoying this game but we are incredibly frustrated by the events. It is quite literally impossible to finish them without spending money and its clear that voltage is knowingly doing that to make a greater profit. Ive already spent some money on the app, yet it wasnt enough to really make notable progress on the event.
We absolutely love the story-telling within this app, and getting to know more about all the characters. The ability to select any option we want without having to pay is wonderful in that regard as well. A great game for F2P people we would adore a route with Sherry and/or Violet, though! Violets the last valet without a route, we believe? And Sherrys such a staunch friend to MC, Id love the chance to romance her.
First of all, we'd like to mention how hilarious the MC and their thoughts are (the sole reason we came to write this review). The character design is beautiful, and the storyline is fantastic! It's a fun visual novel for those who don't like spending too much moneyor money at allto continue reading the story. We've had our fair share of P2P otome games that we had to drop mainly because of their pay-to-read system. This game, fortunately, does not force the players to buy items or story passes! Overall, we would recommend this game to any otome fanatics out there; 10/10 game.
Beautiful artwork and distinctive characters. Im enjoying the game thus far.
This is actually the most relatable game Ive played from you guys. From the writing to the choices of answers, we can honestly say this might be the best game made out like the character you play actually says stuff we would say in real life. You need to make the other games like this one & have the writer who made this game on the next few cause when we tell you we were laughing like we were talking to a friend while playing this game. Never had that kind of experience its worth it.
No need to spend money and the stories are. Absolutely. Delicious!! This game is so incredibly addicting.
We lost count how many times we would get stuck on a chapter in the story. We would have to wait for days or pay, pay,pay.
It was fine at first but the it just stopped working and when we exited the game we could still hear the music -.
Heya! We love the game! Its very fun so far, but we have one issue. Whenever you one of the guys talk, it loads very slowly. Its fine, and it just takes a minute, but its a bit annoying. Otherwise, love this game, and havent had any problems! Thx for the great game! Edit: Its gotten to the point where the pictures do not load as well. Please try and fix this if you can, thank you.
This game is amazing lol it also makes us really happy also Im a simp for rio but we love this game we definitely recommend it.
We absolutely love this game! We cant wait for more chapters to come out, however we wish there were ways to change our skin color in this game.
Ive had this game for over a year now, and Im shocked it isnt more popular. The story is amazing, it has such a unique world, and it introduces characters with depth, and good story building. Its very accessible to people who dont want to spend money, and it doesnt have any ads. Honestly, such a wonderful game.
You should add now princes paths stories faster because we think we all want to know more about what will happen throughout the story please.
We never wrote a review before but this one blew our mined! Its really good and addicting, Ive been playing for almost 4 hours! This game is like daily reading but more fun and virtual <3 we also want a consort path for Lou (including Tino and Dia). If youre not working on it, could you make a consort path for Lou ? (Not trying to force you if you cant). But anyways its really fun, we love it.
It was really fun when we first got it but we havent been able to enter the homepage for days now since it always says server error Ive tried different times of day and its the same every time.
We love the Events you have developed! Im currently on High Stakes Romance Im a big romantic with a rebellious side. The Princes Path Stories are so sweet, especially when they worry about the main character It allows you to see the personalities of the characters, without having to wait for tickets. Keep making magic The short introduction of each of their fathers in the newest chapters of Ch. 3 gave the right amount of detail. We would love to see their mothers as well.
We definitely like the set up; its very easy to navigate. Im addicted ti reading stories like these and we actually really like the 5 daily passes because we hate going through stories really quickly. We really enjoy the little avatar page where you can dress up your person and consort and change the scenery its very fun and cute. Its also very easy to acquire coins and clothing. The ardor missions arent a problem for us and we usually dont mind them because we get the lucky dip rewards while doing them. Love the stories, love the characters, overall we love the game :).
We love this game a lot, but we were wondering if there would ever be a chance of having female consort options like sherry and violet? We think the option for a WLW route would be amazing, especially a sherry route, but we love this game a lot.
It wants us to confirm name but offers no check mark no approval and we have tapped everywhere and have even un-installed and re-installed ans it wont let us move past.
The game is good with a lot of handsome boys but we think we need free gems (watching those free videos).
