An old nightmare returns.

However, the ideal school life at Solana Academy is disrupted by the sudden appearance of grotesque monsters from the formerly sealed-off old dormitory. A chance discovery of magical “petals” leaves four students as the only line of defense against this threat. But as the girls investigate the old dormitory for a way to be rid of the monsters, they begin to uncover a sinister truth regarding their school…

Interesting concept, but took too long to get to any choices. Did not feel like choices impacted the storyline.2 found this helpful
I've read the author's Nightshade series so I decided to get the Eldritch VNs to support them. Unfortunately the first VN is a bit of a dud and it's all because of the MC, Yue. Sure, the MC of the Nightshade was a bit bland and simple but she was cute and enjoyable when she and her partner were developing their relationship. Yue however doesn't really develop at all during the story as she starts the plot kind of a jerk who avoids one of the few people who likes her like the plague, and ends that story treating her "friend" the same way, except she may have a girlfriend by the end of it which also doesn't really work. The romance kind of sucks, which is a shame cause I know this author for their slice of life romances. They followed the bad VN thing of mostly being the same only slight changes like Cho's would have manga and cosplay stuff and feeling left out cause of her appearance while Kagami would having gaming and upset that she was issues expressing herself. I know these sound different but if you play each route(while skipping the stuff you already read) you notice that these scenes feel the same. It's not til the epilogues where the author gives you a cute short story un…1 found this helpful
Fun lil visual novel.1 found this helpful
MC is genuinely unlikable, hates everyone who is just being nice to her, and doesn't deserve a relationship with any of them.

Fun story about schoolgirls fighting supernatural creatures. While your choices, for the most part, won't effect the story outside the romance and it can be a bit tedious to get every ending, I genuinely loved the love interests and their relationships with Yue (Kagami was my fave). I would definitely recommend giving it a try if you're a fan of GxG romance. (:
