So it's about born from the poverty, the girl was deeply troubled if she should marry the rich and handsome Prince Charming. The crazy part is, the Prince Charming married this girl and she started to worry about no love within this relationship? Wow, Cinderella's dilemma. With skip dialogue setting, the game can be completed within 1 minute. Note that the game does not count towards anything because of the Profile Features Limited - it hasn't met certain quality/popularity thresholds (like enough sales, reviews, players) for features like trading cards, showcase display, etc. i.e. this game is not currently eligible to appear in certain showcases on your Steam profile, and does not contribute to global achievement or game collector counts.1 found this helpful
This game did cause some emotion in me, although that is because I am a loner who has only had one girlfriend and wishes to have one--even though I was the one who screwed up my only relationship, twice--not because the game is good. Good small story, but I was expecting to get a full story, while I am teary-eyed, the game is not good, only decent. I have to give either a positive or negative, but I do not think that the game fits either. [spoiler]Though, I am on the brother's side. Marriage for business will never work truly and will only cause suffering.[/spoiler] May all those who long for love, find love.
I have a social life trust me
[h2] Zero choices, Single ending [/h2] Coming from Moonlit Works previous title, Carpe Diem, I was expected to be thrown into a new world with well written characters, despite the store pages short synopsis about a rather dire situation. What I was met with is a linear story, with zero player agency that goes from nowhere, and leads to nowhere. the beginning and end of the story sort of melt together in a loop. no satisfaction in picking a route, or even to see the characters grow (they don't). The topic and scene had potential that was not realised.
Test your heart out
[h3] Short, Free, & Bittersweet 7.5/10 [h3] Without Romance is around 30 mins and the artwork was pretty nice! Story itself was interesting, but the ending was disappointing a little to me because of their choice. Overall the game is a fun way to pass time for a bit. -Thank you for working on this and giving us a free game!
