✦ AI summary

The Apple Tree is a visual novel praised for its engaging detective storyline, compelling characters, and surprising plot twists that keep players guessing throughout. Players consistently highlight the well-written romance, immersive characterization, and excellent soundtrack, though they note the game leans dark and serious rather than lighthearted. The common minor complaint is limited background variety, but overall players find it a memorable experience worth playing.

An awesome novel, with a good plot, expected and not so plot twists and a beautiful CGs. 9/10, would add a little more variety of BG.

I enjoy the story quite a bit. It keeps me engaged, always a huge plus. The detective part kept me on my toes, the ending surprised me. The love part is very sweet, I really like the characters. Totally love the protag. Definitely one of my favorite VN.

The game is great! I'm in love with this story! Fledel is my favorite, my attitude towards him constantly changed throughout the story, and by the end of the game I adored him. The game is dark, so if you are looking for a light casual story, this is not the game for you. I especially liked the immersion into the inner world of the MC, the problems she experienced seemed very real to me. Keen on her. I would especially like to mention the OST. A lot of OST ended up on my playlist. Pros: Great story The detective line doesn’t allow you to relax until the very end Well written love line OST Cons: If you're looking for light humor and a casual story, this is not the VN for you
