-Voice acting -Cat girls -Story is ok not great -Cheap got it in Love Stories Bundle -Thumbs up or down more between.

✔️ Tested on Steam Deck, it works smoothly (09/03/2023). Buttons work for both menu and choices, 'A' button for advancing text and selecting choices. Can't really find any good reasons to recommend this visual novel. The story is really plain and the routes are really rushed since there's barely any development. You just go from having a somewhat friendly relationship with the characters to suddenly them telling you they love you. This is not an unusual thing in a lot of dating sims where the plot is swallow and the characters are boring as hell, but they usually compensate it with stunning or cute art or good character design, which this visual novel also lacks. Neither I have the formula to create the perfect visual novel nor I want to tell people how should they make their games, but I'd say all that budget/time that was invested in animating the characters' sprites and giving all of them voice acting could have been used in commissioning/creating more decent character art and the result would have felt more pleasant to read.

Pros: -sale price is only $0.69 so it's a great bargain -Many VN that cost $0.69 only have one scene. -Similar to USAGIRI (bunny ladies) but more romantic -Playtime is close to 2 hours long. -Sweet and likable characters -Mikołaj Spychałs is one of the better writers of VNs.

Simple catgirl VN with 3 routes. It's not Nekopara, so don't expect ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) stuff.

I had a very good time with this novel. Music is calm and nice. Lines are unusual, but I really like this style. Story is predictable, but in the end, I don't regret sharing my time with Nekokoro.
