A nice game to play after work. Pleasant colors and music. A good choice if you're looking for a romance within a detective story. Personally, I didn't like the use of AI, but I do know from experience how long it can take to draw for an entire game
I've just started playing, but already like it. It's hard to choose between the three love interests. Art, secrets, architecture and love…I want to find out the ending as soon as possible!
(The VN is really well written in Russian. English isn't lagging that far behind either. It's a compliment considering some of the other VNs... XD) Alright well. If you like art and seeing pretty pictures/getting some information about the paintings and such? This VN has you covered. But I swear... At one point when the guy pulled out his phone and started to teach me stuff... I couldn't stop laughing due to the setting we were in. That was a first. On a date. Ahahah! Also, the Principal's face? Epic. However now the smiles must end. Theo? I've never felt so terrible playing a route. There were SO MANY red flags about him... That and when the confirmation came up to "Join Him"... I felt like my MC was giving her soul to the Devil himself. o.O Now, I like Demon-routes/bad-boi routes and all those... But Theo is different... Different in an entirely bad way. (AND NO, this is NOT to tell you to NOT to try his route. This is merely my observation.) My personality couldn't handle him in the end. D: I ended up running to the sunny-boi instead. Only then did I feel better lol. So game: Pretty artwork/backgrounds. Ryan is cool. Theo is overtly scummily evil. Cat is cute. Love the relationship the MC has with her mother and... The mystery was pretty good. I actually enjoyed the mystery more than the romance, albeit the romance was sweet too. Yes. :D............
Interesting game, nice graphics. I didn't manage to pass much after work, but I was very interested. Recommended.
The game slowly begins to immerse you in it's mysterious and beautiful world with fascinating story, charming characters and extremely good-looking backgrounds (imao). The game features stunning backdrops inspired by the beautiful landscapes of London, Paris, and St. Petersburg. The gaming experience makes you feel like you are visiting an art gallery, where you can mentally relax and enjoy aesthetic pleasure.
очень приятная по визуалу игра. сюжет затягивает с первых минут. очееь интересно как будут раскрываться персонажи в дальнейшем. п.с. Люсьен п%3орас
У меня не было особых ожиданий, но игра удивила. Сюжет держит в напряжении, персонажи классно прописаны, главная героиня вызывает смешанные эмоции. Порадовало, что можно вести ее как по светлой, так и по темной ветке. Концовок несколько, так что игру можно проходить по-разному. Единственное, что хотелось бы видеть больше - это побочных активностей, чтобы исследовать город и свободно передвигаться по карте. Но это не так важно, в целом всё понравилось.
That's a lovely pretty story, I like this novel!
Академия искусств и сердец оставила у меня крайне положительные впечатления благодаря своим визуальным и геймплейным особенностям. В первую очередь хочется отметить графическую составляющую игры — проработка персонажей и фоны выглядят просто великолепно. Каждая сцена буквально пропитана атмосферой, а дизайн персонажей настолько продуман и выразителен, что вызывает неподдельный интерес и желание узнать их получше. Также порадовало количество выборов и вариативность повествования. Разработчики проделали отличную работу, добавив множество веток и диалоговых опций. Однако не обошлось и без минусов. Одним из главных разочарований стало отсутствие любовных связей с женскими персонажами и возможности создания «лезбийского гарема». Для новеллы, которая так удачно сочетает элементы драмы и романтики, это кажется серьезным упущением, особенно если принять во внимание разнообразие представленных персонажей и их потенциал для интересных отношений. Такой выбор мог бы привлечь еще более распространенную аудиторию и сделать игру еще более глубокой и многогранной. В целом, Arts & Hearts Academy — это качественная и красивая новелла с интересным геймплеем, которой лишь немного не хватает дополнительного романтического контента для идеала. Надеюсь, в будущих обновлениях разработчики рассмотрят возможность расширения взаимодействия с женскими персонажами.
Muy entretenido. Una historia interesante y bien planteada. Toda la información técnica sobre arquitectura se explica de forma simple y concisa, sin enrollarse mucho, lo cual se agradece para aquellos que no tenemos ni idea del tema. Sin duda, lo mejor de este juego es su apartado visual. Tanto los personajes como los escenarios están muy bien diseñados y manteniendo el mismo estilo. La verdad es que se me hizo corto, pero no tiene nada que envidiarle a otros juegos del mismo estilo y mayor duración.
