Boba Boyz

my life would be so not poggers if i ended up like cole....

Doki Doki but with hot boys and suspicious boba

Children's minigames, honestly bad singing, story is lackluster, very boring, couldn't follow because of the songs, and was that the app that made you able to move faces on images used on these characters? This is bad

If you want a free dating sim, then this is that. if you want a GOOD free dating sim, this is not that. The visual novel segments are so short and rushed (a character confessed their love to me on the first in game day) that there's no real point to them, the minigames are mostly just slide puzzles on a 3x3 grid, and every work day is interrupted by an unskippable 3 minute song, which I personally found to be so painful I had to mute the game. The potential horror aspect had me interested, but it seemed to me like they were setting up for the "Oh no, restaurant makes food out of PEOPLE???" trope, which I am so bored of at this point. I can't say for sure if that's actually what happens though, considering i rage quit after accidentally nudging the scroll wheel on my mouse, forcing me to sit through the same bad, unskippable song all over again just to progress.

this visual novel was such a roller-coaster right from the beginning. initially i was drawn in by the art style and how cutesy it all looked but i wasn't expecting it to have such an ominous background. it was interesting to hear so much voicing for the characters especially with the song confessions, i liked that part a lot! overall with all the unique traits this game had from other visual novels, i enjoyed it as a quick play-through with an ominous twist.

Bu yepyeni video oyunu müzikali, bir baloncuklu çay dükkanının etrafında dönüyor ve bir sırrı var: Bobaları aslında müşterilerine mutluluk getiriyor! Son mürettebat üyelerinin gizemli bir şekilde ortadan kaybolmasının ardından çocuklar yeni bir çalışana ihtiyaç duyduğunda, aşık olacağınız tek şey boba olmayacak.

Boba Boyz is not a game, it's an e-book that's been dumped on Steam masquerading as a game. As a visual/interactive novel, this doesn't feature any notable gameplay, it's just a lot of clicking through badly written dialogue that would never have been accepted or published in print, which poses the question, "How did something this badly written end up on Steam?". When someone hoping to become an author is unable to get published in print, they spend $100 and dump their high school fan-fiction onto Steam, under the guise of a game. While there's some token PyGame minigames here, it doesn't change the fact this is 99% e-book instead of a genuinely made game for PC gamers. The godawful plot is about 4 people working at a bubble tea shop, and despite the fake pink plastic veneer there's a badly written and tiresome "creepy" twist... but it's not nearly as creepy as the high school fanfiction cringe writing. Visual novels/e-books are tedious at best... imagine the best novel you ever read, be that Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy or 2001: A Space Odyssey or Twilight (if you have terrible taste in literature), but then translate that to a format where the words dribble out and you have to click your mouse every time you wanted to read the next sentence, instead of just turning the pages. You'd think it was garbage. Now imagine that experience, but with much worse writing (because if these guys could write professionally, they'd be published authors and this would be on shelves in bookstores, and they wouldn't have to pay Valve $100 to self-publish this on Steam), and you have your average Steam e-book. One of the chief problems with failed authors polluting Steam with non-game E-books is that E-books can easily just be presented in a web browser... there's no justification for charging money on Steam for what might as well be a webpage. We don't spend thousands on buying a gaming rig to spend money on Steam for something Chrome or Firefox could do. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the e-book peaked at only 4 concurrent readers... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. The funny thing is, if you wanted to print this book, you'd only need to print 4 copies to satsify the entire world's demand for it. While this E-book is "free", you can get better quality, professionally written books and comics for free online (from places like Project Gutenberg) or from public libraries. Steam isn't a comic book store, neither is it Netflix, it's for games. Your gaming rig is not a Kindle. It's impossible for me to recommend things to PC gamers that aren't really games (and no the garbage minigames don't count).
