Summer In Trigue

I played a few WW games in the past and enjoyed them, so for me as a lesbian that game sounded good on paper. Sadly this game couldn't deliver for me. There is ZERO real character or relationship development and the "I forgive you" path of the cheating ex is super icky. I hate everyone in this game. Most of the time you want to leave the main character yourself. The constant (and i mean CONSTANT) need to let her have some sassy and funny inner dialoge falls totally flat and is more annoying than anything else. The game to me feels more like a ways to get some drawings with boobs (if you get the patch or haven't bought the game from Steam) than anything else. The love interests are all as deep as a sheet of paper. They all behave super strange and not in a "cute" way. This game seems to be written by only or mainly men.

I like many projects of Winter Wolves studio, so I was initially loyal to this game. The advantages here are good art and cute heroines. There is an interesting idea with a vacation in an exotic place and search for new sensations. Perhaps this is a problem with my expectations, because looking at the screenshots and reading the descriptions, I expected a light and cheerful romantic comedy set against the backdrop of island landscapes. In fact, there is an extremely heavy and unpleasant narrative here, manifested in most plot moments. In addition, the main heroine whines, complains and belittles herself a lot. Moreover, there are so many such self-deprecating and self-critical monologues that it quickly becomes boring. The love routes are not interesting, there is a lot of talk about the characters' past relationships, some of them do stupid things after which you don't want to meet them at all. In fact, most of the routes become love ones at the very end, most of the time these are cautious friendly relationships. As a result, I got strange feelings about a game that looks beautiful but feels very unpleasant.

Summer In Trigue, developed and published by Winter Wolves, is a yuri visual novel that intertwines heartbreak, self-discovery, and romance within the lush, sun-soaked setting of a Caribbean island. The story centers on Sybil Harrington, a novelist whose life collapses when she returns home early to find her partner, Liz, in bed with another woman. In a moment of impulsive defiance, Sybil takes the romantic vacation Liz had planned for them, traveling alone to the idyllic island of Trigue. What begins as an attempt to escape her humiliation and grief gradually becomes a journey of introspection, mystery, and rekindled passion. The island, with its tranquil beaches and warm sunlight, becomes a place of refuge but also one of confrontation—forcing Sybil to question not just the nature of love, but her capacity to trust again. The strength of Summer In Trigue lies in its characters and the emotional nuance of its writing. Each woman Sybil meets on the island—Grace, Shiori, Alex, and Mia—represents a distinct emotional path. Grace is gentle and nurturing, offering comfort and stability to a woman adrift in heartbreak. Shiori, reserved and enigmatic, brings a quiet intensity that slowl…

Totally recommend this visual novel. The art is great. Attraction main character and attractive romantic options. They should have added a skip button though because there is Lots of dialogue. CG could have been more hardcore imo.

This one is surprisingly good. I'm glad I've given it a chance ^^

The characters are cute and (for the most part) likable. Only one of the romance-able options ended up being being kind of problematic, and the story being what it is, I have absolutely zero qualms with that ending leaving me feeling a little bad. [spoiler] It's the ex. That ending makes me glad they're no longer together. [/spoiler]
