This visual novel surprised me. Not only did it connect with me and my anxiety but it was also surprisingly charming. All the love interests had issues and the clear message was that not everyone is perfect. I hated Eric so much that I wanted to crush his creepy face just like the creators intend. I completed all the romance options and not the friendship ones or Eric's secret route, but in my eyes I felt like the game was complete without them. But I have to say it felt rushed (with bad pacing especially with Edgar and Markus route in my opinion) and it was hard to connect with some of characters. And I felt the main theme of being a teacher was missing. I wanted that classroom experience!! Overall I LOVED Leonard and Ray the best. And I 100% believe Markus and Edgar should be gay lovers. Let's just say..when Markus stretched Edgar back on the table, it hit different.

Had more quality and more funny scenarios than the first game. I still wish the stories were longer and had more content. The last 10 minutes were boring. I wish they could have added a new twist in..Felt too similar to the last one that it didn't even feel worth a dollar (and I say that with experience in eating dollar-store foods)

I liked the concept of the men getting POV's. I also really liked Ryuki, Allan, Raul, and Peter (Jupiter) routes. Shelby and Gill's routes were not for me. The music was pretty good. I didn't really care for the MC during Gill's route. It's like she was very oblivious to her own emotions and how Gill felt. She was kind of stupid. I know she's like that in every route, but this time around it was just annoying. Like, why were human activities so foreign to her when she observed humans throughout daily life doing everyday activities when being cupid? Was she really that ignorant? It just doesn't make sense. Just in general, when through the rest of the story, I felt kind of forced. Other than that, solid game.

I loved the art and I have to say, Noah and Misyr's back story really crushed me. I overall loved Misyr and Ignis routes the best, but the other ones were just as good. This game had a cool feature including a dictionary for the less known words (from the game dialogue). I liked the piano music, it resonated with me, especially with the song Play My Memories. But, I wish there were more coffee facts! It got me really excited when they started talking about different blends and different ways to make coffee, but because of the supernatural aspect of the game, it stopped abruptly. Additionally, I felt when playing each route I couldn't really emphasize the characters as the tutorial went through and I never got any other piece of information, it just went into the deep crap. And I was like, awww shit. The characters kept also talking about how the cafe was important to them, but I just couldn't relate. Also, some English mistakes (from translation).

I love the exploring aspect of it. It really sets itself up as a completion game, the puzzles were solid and surprisingly refreshing (except for the jump roping game). The concept of other worlds and their unique atmospheres were extraordinary! It made it feel like a real modern Mario game, yet it still contributes to the old; especially with its old Mario animations with the piping system!
