This is a visual novel with many elements of inclusivity.
The story begins with a "deal" with Cove's father who asks you to be friends with his son, even offering you money.

This is where your choices will begin. Compared to other similar titles, these will be multiple and varied.
I tried, as much as possible, to be faithful to what I would have chosen in real life.
The story develops in a very linear way and leaves you guessing the ending towards which it is led.

The artwork is really well done and also the characterization of the various characters.
I found the music, however, a bit monotonous at times.

The character dubbing, however, is incomplete; for the most part, you won't hear a word, except in a few "critical" moments where they'll make brief exclamations.
I tried the free version, so it had several limitations.
Overall, I found it to be a good game for those who love this visual novel genre.

I enjoyed the idea of having choices to make and the vast amounts of dialogue that you can experience in the game. I would play this game multiple times over again as I truly enjoy the story and possible romance.

Play this at least once. Please. It is an incredible visual novel/dating sim. You don't need the DLCs AT ALL to enjoy it. Once I start a play through, I cannot stop.

You don't want a dating sim? Okay then it can be a friendship sim. You can be mean to him for crying out loud! This game is literally for everyone and you will at the very least have a good time playing it. The writing is beautiful, the relationship dynamics (both platonic and not) are wonderful, there are plenty of times that I have stopped to just laugh.

10/10 would play again. It's so cute, so wholesome, and just relaxing/peaceful to play. No bad feelings here, only comfort and good stuff going on. It's funny, the characters are diverse and well rounded without being perfect, and the customization is done so respectfully towards any kind of identity you want to build for your player character. Finishing the story the first time felt ... cathartic? Not sure what word I'm looking for exactly but it's rare that I feel so many emotions at the end of a video game.
Also excuse me, how is this free???? Immediately bought all the expansions and I'm planning to get the art book, if only to support the developers for making this amazing game.

I laughed, I cried, I experienced a family, and felt I lived through a wholesome and hopeful childhood. Cove deserves the world.

This game is really special. I can't wait to go back and do it all over again someday. But for now, hugs to my moms three, Liz, just doing his best ™️ neighbor dad, and the sweetest boy ever created, Cove. I miss you all already.

The best visual novel game i've played. Totally full of heart and joy and just the main LI skyrocketed my standards to the moon. This game fr fills me with so much happiness in life. 100000/10 would recommend.

Very awesome game :)

love this game 10/10

giggling and kicking my feet like a little girl AUGHHHHH. this is PERFECT for a bookworm like me who enjoys friends to lovers trope (and i can even change that if i please!) and i looooooooooove the fact that it's kind of "choices matter" and i can customize so many things, choose my own personality and answers and just ugh i loved it so much, so wholesome and adorable T-T💕

At first, I think I will just spending my time in some visual novel game. Didn't expect this game to be this good! This game allow you to freely choose your choices. It made me feel deeply into their story. Even more, I feel at ease and relaxing with this.
