Was it worth the price? I had a good weekend with it, and it’s technically solid but not as fulfilling as some of the other visual novels on the platform.

The price of the game was a bit higher than most but after playing it, one will realize how much CONTENT the game packs! Each character has at least 5 endings, there's 6 characters in total, extra perspectives for each moment, after story, wedding eve story, plus 3 short stories for each character (plus for the side characters too!). There's just A LOT of content, keeping you immersed in the world of Steam Prison and your favourite character. The game also includes a well made tutorial guide for first time VN peeps! I spend a longgggg time with this game compared to the other localized otome games so even at its price point, I found it very worth.
I won't dive in to the story too much, but the heroine is admirable, strong, and full of justice instead of having her heads in the clouds about love! There's a lot more plot than romance at times I would say with the story but the last 3 routes will satisfy you with the romance. There is some inconsistency like suddenly having the pendent when the character never bought it with them at all or etc but no major plot effecting issues.
Overall, super impressed by this game, one of the top localization otome games for sure on my list. If you can grab it on sale, 1000% worth and if not, still okay compared to other otome games ($20 difference) especially for all those hours of gameplay vs the others.…Full Review »
