Stars and Snowdrops

to leena: i'd rather spend the rainy day with you while we explore the castle than fall for the dragon which 'crashed' multiple times 😶‍🌫️ here is my warning to everyone who bought or has not launched this game after the date of this review: launch the game in offline mode and you will have smooth sailing all the way. the online mode will make you crash at the same dialogue multiple times so you can never see the story past that point. to obtain achievements, just skip everything and select any choice you want though you will need at least 2 saves: first during the multiple candidate choices and second for picking which action you would like to do at the end. the graphics remind of rapunzel tangled adventure plus the colours do blend well together and it's clear that the artists have put a lot of thought into the backgrounds as well. i'd say the voice acting is top notch such as the air of arrogance which princess kovida carries while also being considerate of her people and the no-nonsense vibe frel exudes with a hint of sweetness during the conclusion. being able to choose what body shape and skin colour is also a plus one for those who are fans of inclusivity in their games…

I really REALLY wanted to try this game out but it just keeps CRASHING. I have no idea why and it seems no one else had the same problem. maybe it's a time thing? I ran other VNs just fine Edit: Someone said they also had a lot of crashes but it runs fine AFTER they changed into an older pc. Guess if you really want to try this one you’ll have to do that

It's super short and super cute. The (few) choices don't really matter and barely differ, but the art is pretty and the voice acting is outstanding. It reads more as a short story that wants to be told with minimal gameplay invovlvement, so I treated it as a charming little bedtime story. Skipping already seen dialogue, it took me 40 min to get all achievements. I didn't get any crashes, but I also played it on the steam deck. Controller controls were a bit iffy. I couldn't get to everything in the menu with the joystick, and it was annoying having to up up up down down down between the skip button and the choice selection. On my desktop PC (linux), I couldn't get it to fullscreen on the screen I needed.

It's a sweet little title! If you're looking for a long time, this isn't it, but as a cute treat on a Sunday afternoon this does the job beautifully.

Kept crashing on my PC, but worked on my old laptop. Pretty good after it started to co-operate. No part was lacking, and the voice acting was lovely.

Lovely voice acting and art design, and customization was so so nice thank you. I got a hell off a jumpscare after hearing the voice test ingame jfc xD
