I mean, it's entertaining, I suppose. I can look at I Love You, Colonel Sanders! as a funny piece of marketing pumped out by a corporate fast-food chain, and recognize that it succeeds in what it's trying to accomplish (trying to get you hungry for KFC while trying to make you laugh for an hour), but besides that, it's kind of a "nothing" game. I guess this comes from my rather negative attitudes against corporate pandering as well as my general "meh" opinions on dating simulators/visual novels. The thing is, is that I feel I can't be too negative on this game because, at its heart, it succeeds on making at being a bog-standard visual novel, with no "gameplay" issues to boot, and it works as corporate advertising because when I just played this with a friend, he immediately ordered KFC after we got off Discord.

I dunno, it's free, only takes an hour to 90 minutes to finish, and offers a few laughs and preposterous moments to keep you entertained, but I wouldn't classify it as "good," nor would I go through the trouble of playing it again.
