Steam reviews

What players say

Players mostly like this Norway-set FMV dating sim for its distinct characters, branching endings and story, though many find the translation, pacing and technical bugs weak.

Many players enjoy the three main love interests, who have distinct personalities and fairly complete story arcs, and the branching endings that reward different choices. The Norwegian setting, the scenery of Bergen and the soundtrack are often praised as a fresh change from other dating sims. Some players find the story rushed, the late-game routes too short and the plot modest rather than ground-breaking. Others complain about English subtitles that read awkwardly, uneven audio and visual quality, and several bugs, including stuttering, missing choice prompts and restarts. Recent reviews are more mixed than Steam's overall positive score, with several reporting the same technical problems, while older helpful reviews focus more on the romance and characters.

Criticised

  • Technical bugs and stability

    Players report restarts, stuttering, and in one case no choice options appearing, which blocks progress.

    Many players
  • Translation and subtitles

    English subtitles are described as awkward, hard to read or confusing, making it difficult to tell which choice leads where.

    Some players
  • Rushed or thin story

    Players feel the story is rushed, the plot is mediocre, or some routes, especially Yu Yingluo's, are too short.

    Some players
Who it suits
Suits players who enjoy character-driven FMV romance with multiple endings and do not mind a modest, slower-paced plot.
Who should skip it
Players who want polished presentation, smooth technical performance or a long, complex story should skip it or wait for fixes.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with longer playtimes more often mention the short late-game routes and wish for more content, while newer players focus on the characters and romance.
