    I really love this game and most of all Dragons! The game also has a good atmosphere and a good picture style with lots of great drawings and characters.
    The text in the game is also very nice but I think there could be some more adult content, but it's just what I mean about this amazing game.

    Purchasing this game in the beginning I thought this was going to be kinda generic. But in all reality it just blew me away. Despite me having a thing for dragons in my opinion the dating aspect honestly didn't even need to be included (isn't forced though) given the story is very powerful and in depth. Many endings (I think 14?) and a true butterfly effect game that no $60 I've playedPurchasing this game in the beginning I thought this was going to be kinda generic.

Despite me having a thing for dragons in my opinion the dating aspect honestly didn't even need to be included (isn't forced though) given the story is very powerful and in depth. Many endings (I think 14?) and a true butterfly effect game that no $60 I've played before could offer. This game was pure genius however some people might get confused by a lot of scientific dialogue. However it's quite amazing how much effort and detail they included.

    The true ending made me tear up a bit; I played 40 hours to get it. Despite many of the same routines that I won't say much 'cause it'll spoil it was enough to drive me 40 hours and honestly I wanna play this again. I don't feel 9/10 games often at all but this was beautiful and totally not getting the attention it definitely deserves.    … Expand

    This is a somewhat abridged version of my longer review on Steam's web-page.

    + Story outshines that of many bigger non-VN games (which it kinda should, obviously) + Deep, compelling main characters – for the most part + Interesting scientific elements + Emotional music and themes + Came across no bugs whatsoever + Quality of writing in general + Well-written and -paced,    This is a somewhat abridged version of my longer review on Steam's web-page.

    + Story outshines that of many bigger non-VN games (which it kinda should, obviously)
    + Deep, compelling main characters – for the most part
    + Interesting scientific elements
    + Emotional music and themes
    + Came across no bugs whatsoever
    + Quality of writing in general
    + Well-written and -paced, emotionally satisfying platonic interactions with the main characters

    – Rushed or omitted, emotionally unsatisfying romantic interactions. (Little payoff after the build-up, and only one character even acknowledges it happened afterwards)
    – Not enough of the soft-romance aspect in the relationships. (Jumps a little too quickly from amicable conversation to deep-end intimacy, which is then mostly omitted for decency's sake.)
    – Inconsistent character appearance in some full-screen pictures

    Summary:
    If you're only here for character interaction that's beyond first base, and don't care for much else, then you'll probably be disappointed.
    But if you like a decent, science-y story; getting to know interesting characters; and don't mind an emphasis on platonic (yet still quite fulfilling) interaction; then you'll be able to forgo any shortcomings, and be glad you got this visual novel.    … Expand

    This is the game with the best storyline ever. I was expecting it to be good, but when i actually played it, it blew my mind.

    An overall quality game that suffers from very poor marketing. I know it is the entire point that it's not what it seems but marketing a visual novel with sci-fi elements and well written story as a dragon dating simulator likely turned some people off the game. Regardless the game made me cry a couple of times and is the only game I have 100% completion in on steam

    Indecision and hasty writing is what ultimately brings down Angels with Scaly Wings. Although the game starts off promisingly enough, the quality of its opening is definitely not reflected in the rest of the writing, least of all the romance scenes, which mars the overall journey despite the very interactive nature of the story. The novelty of a setting can only carry a story so far, and without a solid cast of characters or a well-developed plot, Angels with Scaly Wings is, unfortunately, quite a mundane experience.

    Angels with Scaly Wings generally overcomes its goofy setup and simplistic presentation to deliver a character-driven plot with some good surprises, making for a decent little diversion of a game.

    A strong story coupled with well-written characters is brought down by cringeworthy romancing. Angels With Scaly Wings is a rather enjoyable yarn irrespective of your ability to woo dragons.
