  As Helder had put it: :wails in anguish:. Or how Exinious said it: *winces*. Yes, it's another lazy cashgrab project from Y Press Games. The only two things ever good about their games, are the basic ideas for their stories and the art. Other than that? You play a visual novel that feels like your Sim-Overlord had decided to put you on super-speed. It's incredibly rushed. Important Key Events? Like [spoiler]talking to some siblings or meeting your dead mother?[/spoiler] Who needs them? Just skip them! Descriptions of what's going on? Blergh! Fillers to actually give the story some depth instead of just skipping from event, to event, to event, to event, to the end? Nah! That would actually require some effort! I don't know what time period this is supposed to take place in, but the massive Dialogues that basically make the game, don't even sound fitting to the story, characters, the whole damn world surrounding them. "Heck yeah!" "Geez!" "I'm in Healer-Mode!" The sounds aren't well fitted either, blasting out your eardrums and sounding horrible in quality. Music? Heard it all before somewhere. Seriously, after My Magical Demon Lover and To Trust An Incubus, I had decided to take a break from Y Press Games and give them some time to actually grow and improve. So when I heard that they were actually going to release an Otome related game for a change, I decided to give them another chance, but.. it's still the same frustration and irritation. Such amazing concepts, stunning art and characters that actually look really interesting.. it all looks amazing until you get to play the actual game, that just shoves a minimum limit of crappy and rushed writing with zero thought or effort added to it down your throat and expects you to be happy with it. I will probably finish this game, hunt for all the achievements this time around.. but I highly doubt I will change anything about this review. Can't recommend this game, unless you're the collecting type and this game is on a heavy sale.

  READ THE DESCRIPTION BEFORE YOU BUY IT!! I love the games made by this company. It is short, cute, very predictable, has good art, and I love one route ( Exinious ) and liked another ( Rhane ). Normally I play this company's games for the BL, hot and interesting characters, good storyline, good voice acting, and awesome sex scenes. As such, I kinda feel like I wasted my money. I didn't expect them to do a 180 and make a game that was the complete opposite of their others and I should have read the description instead of blindly trusting. I don't care about gender but the no voice acting or great sex scenes I've come to enjoy was not something I was not impressed with. Maybe its lame to put so much stock in that but let's be honest: half of us really only play games like this for hot people doing it with drama and good back stories. That's what all of this company's previous games were. If I wanted the standard of the boring otome I would have just played one of the many I have that fit into that category. I enjoyed 2 routes and I'm sure others will find parts of it enjoyable as well. It's pretty big on female empowerment which is cool. I think this company should just stick to doing what their good at: making amazing BL games.

  I was actually really excited for this game and when I finally played it felt.....empty. Such amazing art and the plot drew me in, but don't expect any real...anything going on in this game. The plot, not even joking, is SKIPPED. [spoiler]Meeting your mom, fixing the mess the gods started and getting married[/spoiler] let's just skip all that and cut to the scene where they talk about how amazing said event was. Wish I could have seen it! I'm so confused when this takes place because of topics I didn't even believe existed around this time such as divorce.The CG was reused several times which was sad because it looked so nice. Honestly might just stay away from their games unless there is a massive sale. I could have looked at the art for free, paid $15 for this.

  Honestly I almost didn't get this game because of the reviews but I'm happy I bought it anyways. Yes it's a bit cheesy but it's so lovely to see a female lead in an otome game who can take care of / speak for herself and even better the male love interests all listen and respect her wishes and decisions (so far anyways I haven't finished the game yet). From all that I've played up until now the game focuses on communication and consent and it's a breath of fresh air when compared to the many Japanese otome games I've played. If you are looking for something sweet and so far very healthy fluffy relationships I think you'd really enjoy this. (P.s if any of what I said happens to change as I finish the game I will come back and edit my review.) Edit: Just finished Helder's route and oh man I lost count of how many times I wanted to deck this dude. Luckily this MC is amazing and she doesn't let him get away with any of his bull. I love Thalia she's my most favourite MC ever.

  Decent game, I liked it well enough I guess. Art was the best part, story was a little weak and repeated itself for each route. The characters were decent, but the game was pretty dang short. However the fact that you're selling the strategy guide instead of offering it for free is shady af, so big yikes from me.

  Exinious was my favorite route, followed by Rhane and then Lysander. Parallels to both Greek mythology and Christianity while still maintaining its own magic.

  A really addicting game. I started it and couldn't stop playing it until I'd finished all the main routes. Sometimes the story can get a bit repetitive between the routes, but each character adds a new side to the story and keeps it interesting. The artwork is amazing, and the story plot is ok. Over all, it was a great otome.

  TL;DR: Do NOT buy this game for its full price. It's not [i]terrible[/i], so if you still want to try it out, wait for it to go on sales. This should not be more than 5€/$, and some games for this price are a lot better. Alright, so, after playing for a few hours and finishing 3 out of the 5 different routes, I feel like this game can be enjoyable if you consider it as a tacky parody of an erotic otome. Let me explain. Most of the game's bad points have been developped in previous reviews, and the most recurring one (and the worst) is that the writing is terrible, scenario-wise and dialogue-wise. It is. First of all, there's little to no introduction to the world you jump in. No opening scene, no opening credits, as soon as you press start you're teleported to Thalia, and 30 secondes later you meet your first God who's acting like a total creep. In a few lines you learn that you're a healer, that deseases have been spreading, that you have super secret magical powers and that gods exist and interact with mortals. Wow, alright. Let's not go too much into details; everything is rushed. The relationships are rushed, the story is rushed, even the decisive scenes between the characters are rushed or even [i]skipped[/i]. Moreover, I've tried at least twice to go back on a choice to see the differences, and the following dialogues were [b]exactly the same[/b] every time. Either I encountered a bug, or the writers were lazy af. I could have liked the game if the purpose was to enjoy an erotic fantasy with mighty, handsome, horny gods, since for this type of story there's no need to beat around the bush, but even that part is rushed and mostly bland. The sexual tension is built up all along the story (which, let me remind you, is pretty short and overly [i]rushed[/i]), but when the time comes to finally act on it, we jump from "yes, I'll sleep with you" (which is still optional) to a CG of the next morning in bed. No description of the act, no internal dialogue to express how it feels to be touched by your lover, no special CG, nothing. The best thing I can mention about the story is that Thalia is actually an interesting character, and you have the possibility to scold, rebuke and refuse the gods' advances when they act like creeps or whiny children. And it happens. So it's not an erotic game, but a bad romantic game, and a terrible visual novel story-wise - exception made for the design. Which is why I call it a joke. From what I can see on steam, the development studio is specialized in Bara/BxB erotic games and has rather positive reviews on these games. They tried their hands at a GxB otome with the same codes (and maybe with even less erotism, I don't know since I haven't played the other games, but they seem more explicit), and failed at it.

  I bought this game only because of how poor it's reviews were, and wanted to see for myself just what kind of a dumpster fire we had here. I can say two things, and they are all you need to know. It's not worth the price. For only one character that has some personality, but the writing and pacing is so poor it's just not a good use of your time. Don't do the youtuber thing of "it's bad so I should play it regardless for the entertainment value". Just don't.
