What Makes LongStory Stand Out
Who ever said you can't go back?
LongStory, a charming and LGBTQ+ friendly dating sim set at the weirdly lovable Weasel Heights Middle School lets you pick your pronouns as well as who, or even if, you would like to date any of your romanceable friends.
On your first day of school you discover that the previous owner of your locker has “mysteriously” disappeared. Do you want to figure out what happened or are you too busy being a social butterfly and trying to avoid your enemies…
LongStory gives you a chance to find true love as a middle school student (yes with all the awkwardness that entails) but we promise it will be so much better this time around!
"I rarely write reviews but I just had to for this game because it is so cute. I really enjoy being able to date whatever gender. I can't wait for new episode releases!"
"This is by far my favorite game on the App Store. I am so happy I was introduced to it when I was. It has an interesting plot, lovable and relatable characters, and the story just keeps getting better and better!!"

Community Insight:
warning spoilers First of all, why?? Why does Abby leave us over some butthole like EM?! Why?! Second why is Colin so weird?? (we kinda like him tho. Ok we really like him) anyway em is our enemy like we wanna fight to the death with them aaaaaaaa.
This game is honestly everything Ive been looking for. We love the characters, its something our teenage daughter can also enjoy playing (and its relatable to her current school situation) and it honestly has options for everybody. Very cute artwork and we cant wait to see what else they come up with.
This story is so good! Im so mad that the other episodes cost! So we deleted it after we finished the only episode we have, its a good story and wish it was all free.
Please please PLEASE make the other chapters free with ads! Like if the customer watches enough ads to make $1.99 then they unlock the next episode instead of having to pay!! We love this story so much, and this way would let our no credit card account be able to get through the whole story.
Just…thank you growing up, we loved this game. More than anything, and we love it more now being 14 and lgbtq+. This feels so wholesome and accurate to the teenage experience, especially since it makes us feel so just…comfy? Idk. We just genuinely love this game, we have and always will. We love all the characters sooo much, their just so perfect. Especially the bird (who we wished we got to see). This is one if the best games ice ever seen and it makes us so happy. And we love how your still kinda updating the game! You truly care about this game, and thanks for introducing us to dating sims which are our favorite thing now (: sending lots of love mwahhh.
This game is so fun the only problem Im having is that we purchased the last episode and it said no purchase made but we made the purchase. Anyways Id love help and the game is super fun.
We wanna say this quick so we LOVE drama and stories like these BUT it requires money to buy more episodes which we cant bc our mom doesnt let us. PLEASE MAKE THE EPISODE FREE we WANNA KNOW MORE.
Most people who vote negatively are probably homophobic, this game is so adorable and is so representative for teens. If your an adult and have a problem with this game, just stop..this game isnt even meant for you.
Its a very great game we just wish you didnt have to pay for all of them still love the game though.
We like the game and its story. Only problem is the Episode 8 wont unlock. Ive beaten the game and Ive purchased the episode. For some reason it still registers as if we havent bought it and we keep getting no purchase made as a message. It took our money and wont unlock.
This game is wonderful.we love how at the beginning it lets you pick the gender and pronouns you want because usually in a game it only feats girls instead of boys and they have a girl and boy dating but in this game you get to date whatever gender you like. We do wish though that this game would have more details like picking your clothes instead of wearing the same thing everyday. The only thing that we didnt really like about this game is that you have to pay for the episodes. As a broke/ stingy person this frustrates us that we do have to spend our money to enjoy the rest of this game. We do get that the creators have to make money off this game,although we do wish that theyd make money off of something else like for example for some of the clothes for the character if they did add those details.This game was wonderful while it lasted, although we have a few ideas how to make it better in here.
We loved the game! It was great, amazing, and super good. We're not one hundred percent sure if we've even finished the game yet, but we think we are. It's 2 am and Ill probably forget to play the rest and write this review so. The game is really inclusive. You're able to choose between two sexes, and you get to choose your pronouns, which we believe go beyond he/him and she/her, but we're not too sure. You can also somewhat choose your sexuality as your character can pretty much date anyone, we THINK. Our only problem with the game is that you have to pay for the episodes, even though they're not expensive. You still do have to pay, which is sad :( It's around 10 dollars for the whole thing. AHH, we wish we COULD say more, but we don't want to spoil it for anyone. We absolutely loved the game! It's based on a late middle setting, which was surprising due to the amount of drama. The game definitely made us tear up. There's this blue-shirt boy who we chose as our character's love interest, and yeah, he almost made us cry. We might just us sensitive, though. Best money we've ever spent, and we'll definitely be crying ourselves to sleep thinking about it! DEFINITELY RECOMMEND PLAY RAHHHHHHHHH.
Please make episodes free we would be very grateful because we cant spend money because Im going on vacation next week other than that fantastic game so far.
We love everything about this game but its sad that you have to spend money to continue the story, we understand that the creators need money But still.
We love the game but when we try to buy the last chapter it wont let us it says transactions complete but it still says buy it and its just this chapter.
This is probably one of our favorite visual novels Ive read. It feels nice to have a MC that looks like you and have realistic options and decisions to make. That being said, Ive been having trouble in unlocking the final episode? We purchased it, but it keeps registering as if no purchase was made. We really hope that gets fixed, even if this is an old game.
We played almost all the episodes the only episode we didnt get to play was the last one even thought we purchased it? Which is weird because the money came out of our account ik it did, idk why its like if its a glitch or something but idk. We think Im going to get refund or something for it because thats just a waste of our time forreal . But besides all the that we liked it while it lasted.
Ill keep it short and simple, you have to pay $2 for every episode and theres 10, 20 bucks for a phone game doesnt sound worth it to us, but otherwise the game is pretty good.
We know its like 1.99 per episode, but thats 21 dollars in total and Im too broke. We hope that in the future you can access the episodes with ads or for free for a certain amount of days.
It was good but at chapter 8 it didnt let us pay for it it would say no purchase made and it kept saying it.
After if finished episode one we were really excited to go on and pretty invested in the story! But then it was going to make us pay 1.99 for each episode! We dont spend our money on games like this and would rather have ads then have to spend that much! We think for the creators it would be important to know that much more people would play the game if you didnt have to buy anything. Because now we are not going to play the game anymore.
Im rating this a 3 because it doesnt let u pick what u look like so we like this game but yeah that is one thing we hate about it.
We used to love this game, but now episode 9 is gone (not even listed) and 8 wont unlock despite the game acknowledging Ive paid for it.
We played this game in middle school and finally came back to it now that we are an adult that doesnt know how to save money lol. The only thing that kept this from 5 stars is that it changed episode 8 to be a paid episode but after we bought it, it said no purchase made and wont let us pay the episode.
We read the entire 1st episode and didnt see a single thing about anything political? Whats everyone talking about? Did it get political in the second episode? We personally didnt see anything about it. Other then the confusion, we absolutely love it, we wish the rest of the episodes werent paid, as the first didnt catch our attention enough for us to purchase the other episodes. It was fun to play while we could.
We were quite excited to play but its 2 dollars per episode complete waste of time.
Whats the point in only releasing one episode then have the rest you pay for? The plot is good but not good enough to make you wanna pay for the rest. We understand that a business has to make money somehow but wouldnt you be getting more revenue and downloads if you just ran ads & offered your consumers to pay for no advertisements? Youd most likely get better reviews if that was the case.
We reviews this game years ago, and have since replayed it multiple times. Anyone who doesnt like this game is weird idc.
Ok so when we first downloaded this game we were like ok lets do this! 1hour later we finished chapter 1 and we were just bout to play chapter 2 but it said pay!? We were like what the heck!? So we need to find another game!pls make the stories free in a week or 2.
Its 1 star because you have to pay for episodes.
So you make a game that's gonna attract middle to high schoolers which most don't have a job or their own income and then make 9 out of 10 episodes 2 dollars each. Real smart. Also, this game isn't political so the other reviews are stupid too.
Ok this is a REALLY good game we recommend it but we have one problem. Its 2 (or 1) dollars to get the next episode. We know yall need money so you guys/ girls do you.
We liked the story a lot but its cost too much for it and we feel like it should of went on for more episodes and been years since update.
We loved it this helped us through a tough time and the diversity is amazing we totally recommend.
Right now Im about at the protest part ( we finished the episodes before ) anyways we like Ems song and the end song but Ive search safari AND YouTube and neither have either song :( so can u put a spot in the main menu for all the songs in the game please.
Can you make the other episodes free.
Turkeyhawk is the perfect being.
We remember the year this game came out and we still play it to this day never gets old its just great to see how long the LBGT+ community has came its a wonderful feeling we would LOVE to see season 2 or a part 2 PLEASE it be amazing to see how the character process and change SPOILER ALERT the return of certain characters from Dubai and a bunch of new people but we digress Ill definitely be waiting for that if that want you guys chose to do LOVE the game.
We love the game a lot and its sooo good (even though we havent finished it) the only problem? The younger brother is named Alex, we put our name as Alex, so now confused we are.
Amazing story, and many people agree can we have a squeal, this story is way to good to end it.
We grew up playing and watching lots of simple dating sim games like this one. None of the RPG dating games these days have made us feel that wave of nostalgia or excitement for a long while. This game made us feel that. We experienced a gameplay that has topics and options (LGBTQIA+, culturally, family/romance/friendship dynamic inclusive) relevant to our current life as an older teen. Every detail made our heart jump out of our chest (if youve played emotional and intricate games, you know the feeling). It was relatable and even the parts that werent relatable to us specifically we know are relatable to the many friends our age Ive had. It felt surprisingly realistic, the melancholic parts, the everyday parts, and the simple joys of life parts. The banter you can have with characters was very realistic too! They felt like friends. We also deeply appreciate the multiple choices in dialogue (and even monologue), as even dating sims with multiple dating candidates sometimes make your options too similar and bland. The only real critique we have is that the game was way too short for us, despite how long you can spend in chapters. If you need a long game, especially considering the price, youll probably want to watch a YouTube play through (even small games have play-throughs if you look hard.) However, we are so happy this game exists and we hope there will be many more like it. This game isnt for everyone, as some people will be put off by the inclusivity and call it pandering, but as someone whos reality strongly identifies with much of this game, we think its wonderful. Im a pretty big empath, so we tend to digest even game scenes really meaningfully and immerse ourselves very well, and with how emotionally intelligent this game was written we feel as though it mustve been created by at least one empath too. ^-^.
Where is like chapter two of this game… We ended off like a cliffhanger. We need a second part to the main story… PLEASE.
This is the best game we have ever played and we wish there were more storys to play or even a second game because this is such a nice game to enjoy and its just there is so much good things about this game that we cant even describe and we totally recommend it even though you had to pay for the storys it is honestly so worth it.
We went down marcels path and jus kno a few parts made us cry and the last part where he post a picture with him nd us that made us cry so hard.
We seriously loved this game but we wish the other stories were free.
First off Id like to say that this a wonderful game, the story is incredible and the characters, although being a bit cliche, are incredible. We love the support for the lgbtq+ community! You can pick your pronouns (non-binary being an option) and both avatars are neutral looking but still awesome! The only problems we have are that sometimes the grammar isnt to good. Its only a few minor mistakes but as someone that writes a lot we notice them and get slightly annoyed. Also, almost 2 dollars per chapter seems like a bit much. The chapters are long enough that its fine and you dont have to keep spending money left and right but it can feel like a bit much. Still doesnt take away from the wonderful art style and enticing story line! We also would like to add that the fact you can have a romantic relationship with the TURKEY is wonderful. The character development has been great so far and Im exited to continue.
Best game we felt like we were ha being real connection with the characters. We hate that the last episode just left off blank.
Shouldve made all 10 episodes free 2 dollars for every episode is E.A type of money grabbing.
Some of these reviews are disappointing. Imagine giving a bad review because something is too political. Just admit youre homophobic and move on. ANYWAYS we think this game is beautiful in so many ways. The characters are POC, you actually have a choice on whether or not you want to fall in love with someone, the music is soo cute just so many things we could go on and on about. Ive been playing this game for years because we couldnt afford to pay for more chapters but now we can so we can finally finish the story! We do think you should find other ways to make the chapters cheaper because it is a lot but nonetheless you have a great game we hope you come out with more.
We love this game but we kinda wish we didnt have to pay for the chapters, we think a lot more people would continue to play this game, however we understand that they need to make money somehow.
