Cafe Deux Femmes

A pleasant yuri VN. The CGs weren't exactly outstanding, and the story too was more on the average side, but what I was particularly pleased with was that the 18+ DLC (for both routes) was relatively gentle and loving - it was not explicit, "blow-by-blow" - which is how I think all good yuri VNs should climax - and needless, to say I'm a great fan of yuri VNs.

I love the art but for a game that tackles colonialism and racism having the main event be on Thanksgiving is a little tone deaf.

[h1]GUILTY PLEASURE[/h1] Cafe Deux Femmes is yet another yuri + slice of life Visual Novel from Double Peach Productions. As usual with their games, you can finish it in less than two hours. It's a solid craftmanship - not something above average, but you'll be satisfied (especially if you're using NSFW patch 😉). The game lets you make some choices. They are not complicated. Pick whatever your love interest prefers. It will lead you to good ending and sex scene (with NSFW patch). There are two bad endings, but it's obvious which choices will cause them. Specific visual style (that I like), nice CGs and jazz soundtrack. Good stuff. I can recommend it as a "time killer", that you can play between bigger titles. Get it on some sale and enjoy the story.

Decent enough art and music, but even overlooking my personal disinterest in small talk and normie life, the writing leaves a bit to be desired, especially when it comes to the erotic endings. Outside of Adriana being occasionally charming and relationship drama with the protagonist's sister, I kind of... really don't care about these characters? [i]Cafe Deux Femmes[/i] is the first visual novel by Double Peach, however, as well as Little Black Book's first sapphic entry, so there's at least plenty of room to improve going forward.

Slightly above your typical LBBE game. Boring talking with occasional preaching, lack of protagonist design, mostly non-important choices until a certain point, and lame 18+ CG's are still present but at least the love interests are slightly more memorable and the art is still good. There's also a cheating plot line like Confession at Candlewood Lake but this one is rightfully portrayed as bad (even if that's just because it was done by an off-screen character). Admittedly I'm not sure if this game really does deserve a thumbs down but there's no in the middle option and I still can't recommend this game as a Dating Sim enjoyer.

i loved how simple and feel-good this was without being overloaded by fluff. my little gay heart rejoiced! the protagonist is flexible and actually not obnoxious, which is hard to come by, and the two love interests were very different and unique! the setting was immersive and i'll probably end up playing through again soon :)
