    Sakura Santa fails to stand out from the growing crowd of visual novels on Steam and elsewhere, except in the single respect of being a Christmas-themed story, coming out just in time for the holiday. Unfortunately, one would probably have to be as lonely as the game's protagonist to find a compelling reason to play.

    Sakura Santa is a Christmas boobs showcase, perfect for the holy night. If you hope for a good visual novel, look something else.

    Whatever cheap thrills this visual novel does include aren’t worth sitting through incredibly flat writing and a lack of substance for. If you’re looking for shiny anime mammaries, hit the rest of the internet instead.

    Pros
    +Great background designs
    +Decent OST
    +Gallery mode which allows you to see CG scenes
    +Uncensored (though it showed nudity, some parts were cleverly hidden purposely)
    +Multiple Endings

    Cons
    -Very short compared to the other Sakura games
    -Art design seems to look a bit worse than the other Sakura games previously released
    -FPS stutters constantly between 20 FPS to 60 FPS though its barely noticeable through text loading (tested on both laptop and desktop)
