春はあけぼの、我はバケモノ。 - Spring at Dawn, I Am a Monster.

Art looks weird and inconsistent. Maybe the character art isn't AI generated but the intro animations definitely were. I don't think I'll refund since the price is very low but I can't recommend this game unless they give more details about their AI use. Clearly it is more than just the backgrounds.

It kind of pains me to give this game a thumbs down but I definitely can't give it a thumbs up. It's a story told from the perspective of a primary school teacher, reminiscing about the past. They hear gossip from the school staff room that a student in their homeroom class hasn't been attending for a while now, and they begin to worry about whether this will affect their employment. So then you pick between three students - and investigate what's keeping them away, and go through their story. Each student has one good end and several bad ones. When you've got a good end, you're treated to a song, end credits, and an after-credits sequence. When you've collected all the endings for all the students, you get to play the teacher route. So that's the game structure, ok? Each loop is quite short, and you can use the skip button, so if you want, you can get through it all fairly quickly. When you've collected all the endings for a student, this is indicated on-screen, which is handy. I have no complaints about the game interface, that is good. But the problem is, I played the first student and got her good ending on my first try, then I played the second student until I found the goo…

It was a very raw game in the terms of how, neglect and abuse are shown. Especially the living conditions. I did find sensei to be stumbling a lot when he should've been a responsible adult. Yet. The emotional impact of the situation with the girls was hard to process. It did a good job at portraying helplessness.

Only played about 40 mins and already had to refund it. There is a bug where some (not to say MOST) dialogues just stay stuck there forever despite clicking and trying to skip, and every scene change is the same, they take FOREVEEER, like 2 full minutes, even if you set the text and transition speeds to the max, which really disrupts the flow of the game and makes it unplayable. This bug has been reported already since release and they have done nothing about it. As soon as this gets patched i will give it another try. Its sad because i was really looking forward to playing this but there is no way i'm gonna sit thorugh all those dead minutes of stuck dialogue. UPDATE: After the annoucement of the september 6 update i decided to cancel the refund and give it another chance, the problem did NOT go away, while it got a little bit better, the long pauses are still there, the worst offender in this case being ajimi's route with the longest time stops and with it happening more frequently that in the other routes. I do thank one thing, thanks to these long ass pauses of doing nothing but staring at the same short quote for over 2 minutes, i noticed the art has a lot of inconci…

so much like blue archive, overall it fine

I know people are going to not get this game due to the AI but I ask you give it a chance. I 100% the game and LOVED the story telling the characters and the conversations they had. This game had me in a choke hold and I had to do most of it in one sitting due to being so curious about the girls and the routes you could take. The game is super good and I am so glad I stumbled upon it. I would say with the music the story telling and the art it is more than worth the price. There is a secret route too once you do all the girls 5 endings. Really gets you thinking on things.
