  I've played [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/565690/Ayakashigami/]Ayakashigami[/url] a few months ago, the first game that the Japanese developer [url=https://twitter.com/aki_masanari]Kurenaibook[/url] released on Steam. Their first game was okay, it wasn't a masterpiece, but it wasn't bad either. My major complaint was the awkward English translation, and unfortunately, [i]Glare1more[/i] isn't much different. There is a big improvement, though. Plus, the story of this new title is a lot more interesting, together with its gameplay feature. This game also contains uncensored adult scenes. You play as a silent nameable protagonist. One day, you receive a cardboard box through the mail that contains something peculiar: a robot maid named Glare. Both of you are confused, and you don't know exactly who is the sender and why they would send you such a unique gift. Glare also can't understand why she was sent to a complete stranger. So, it's up to you two to unravel this mystery. You need to carefully evaluate the words and phrases that Glare says and you have to write the ones that caught your attention on the [i]search[/i] option. If there's relevant content, a new scene will be triggered and you'll be able to progress through the story. That's a very interesting feature, and it reminds me of old text adventure games. It can get somewhat hard after a while and a guide might be necessary. If you need help and you're totally okay with spoilers, you can check out [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1518142389]this guide[/url] I've made. After you complete the main scenario, you can play a side story, which also revolves around uncovering a mystery together with Glare. The art style used in this game feels a bit amateur, but at least to me, it was satisfactory. The CGs and sprites are animated on Live2D: it was a nice surprise since this game isn't very expensive, and the animation quality is alright. [i]Glare1more[/i] has no BGM nor sound effects, and the only sounds you're going to hear are the doorbell and maybe a few clicks. At first, I thought that was strange, but after reading through the story, I think that the uncanny silence actually fits? Still, a few more sound effects would've been nice at least. The UI is also really simple, and the gallery doesn't work too well when you try to rewatch scenes. [spoiler]After you've finished the main story, you'll watch an animated adult scene with Glare. [b]There are no mosaics on this game[/b], but the genitalia is covered in shadows.[/spoiler] The English translation is superior to Ayakashigami, but there are still small typos and a lot of sentences sound unnatural. That's actually a bigger problem than typos and grammar mistakes, in my opinion. But [b]this novel is readable[/b] and you'll be able to fully understand the story. It took me nearly five hours to play through the main scenario, mostly because I had to find out new words to trigger new scenes. 6.5/10. If you enjoy mystery, text-based games and you're a patient person that won't easily give up, this game can be a good choice! It's a different visual novel with a sort of old-style feeling to it, and it was a fun experience for me.

  Glare1more is one of the inaugural uncensored adult titles on Steam, and also the first visual novel I've come across which utilizes a text entry interface for gameplay. The game is rather short and limited in scope, and the adult content is unimpressive; that said, the text entry system is used to great effect, [spoiler]especially at the climax,[/spoiler] and the heroine's Live2D animations enhance various story and gameplay moments. The translation is fine. I recommend this game to anyone who's curious or wishes to test their reading comprehension. If you're seeking quality literature or smut, though, go get Grisaia.

  Basically, you get an intelligent female robot that[spoiler]falls in love with the protagonist[/spoiler]and you[spoiler]fuck the robot.[/spoiler] Quite par for the course in these cheap eroge, but it isn't hard to get a feel for what kind of character Glare is. The UI is not translated entirely, and the translated monologue is pretty bad. Genitals are never rendered explicitly, but it is what it is. I give it a Glare1 out of 1.

  It was really enjoyable to play. It is much more interesting than a normal visual novel, since you have to think about what has been said to progress. I would love to see more of Glare, she is a lovely character.

  The illustrations are nice but the gameplay can be very confusing, even with a guide. Sometimes you have to input previous words again in order to progress and the translation has some grammar issues. You can finish it in about 2-3 hours. Get it on sale if it interests you.
