Camp Palut

I completed all 4 routes and achieved 6/7 of the achievements (I couldn't be bothered with the hidden one), so this will be me ranking the game and the paths of each girl - WARNING: spoilers ahead! - Bianca: the villain of the game, who's a witch kidnapping girls to sacrifice for a life-extending ritual. Worst ending of the game. 1/10. - Nat: the eccentric lover of cryptids with an obsession for bigfoot. Their path didn't even reveal Bianca as the villain, very bland character with a boring ending. 3/10. - Cassie: the over-cautious photographer. Like Nat, she's quite a boring romance option, but the ending was slightly better at least. 5/10. - Amy: the flirty, assertive one of the group. She's honestly the best (and only) good romance option, with a true lesbian U-Haul ending. 9/10. - Art: inconsistent in the gallery CGs, and there were only 4 CGs per love interest. 3/10. - Story: mildly interesting, but the game itself is far too short to build up to anything enjoyable because you literally have one week to get close to a girl before their path splits off; but the plot loses its shine after the first route completion because after that you always know what's coming. You can also easily predict that Bianca is the villain of the game given she's portrayed as a loner who only shows up at random occasions and doesn't have any friends (an offensive trope, but so is showing Brigid, the transgender character, as being the 'strong' character). 3/10. - Sound: there's no voice acting whatsoever, the sound effects are far and few in between (which can be quite jarring when they actually ring through), and the music is extremely simplistic and looped. 4/10. This game is a massive letdown. I was quite excited for it as it was advertised as a true sapphic visual novel, but it felt rushed and unpolished, and I could not in good conscience recommend this to anyone. Overall, I would score it 3/10.

A couple of hours long Yuri. Choices do matter. It's not bad and I got a Good Ending with Amy, she is fun but a tough nut. There are more girls to pick so will try another next time.

Camp Palut came out at the perfect time; it's been like 100 degrees and felt like the dog days of summer. So, what better visual novel to read than one that takes place at a summer camp? None, I tell you! This is a very simple and straightforward VN, which I mean as a wholehearted compliment. You can pick a choice and basically scroll back to pick the right one if you chose poorly. The writing and characters are distinct enough, the designs are fairly unique, the music fits, and the backgrounds really stand out. The whole thing clearly had a lot of love put into it. Basically, if you're in the mood for something that isn't trying to be overly complicated, give it a try!

ESP: Novelita visual lésbica, cortita, rejugable, con toma de decisiones, el diseño y dibujo de los personajes me pareció muy lindo. Tiene demo disponible. ENG: Lesbian visual novel, short, replayable, with decision making, I found the design and drawing of the characters really pretty. It has free demo.

Camp Palut was something I got on board with on a whim months ago and I really didn't expect much from it. I figured it would end up being a piece of hot garbage or never actually get finished. Fast forward to last night and I'm thrilled to say not only is Camp Palut a complete game, it's a completely fun game. I had some genuine laughs, I liked getting to know the different characters and found them interesting, and I thought the backgrounds were genuinely beautiful. When I ran into a bad ending on my first play-through I immediately jumped back in, thinking of the best path to a good ending instead. The game was just simply fun to play. And I think wanting to go back in and do it again to learn more of the story and figure out what I missed is really the highest praise you can give a game like this. It is a visual novel style story where your choices effect the outcome, so having enough fun the first time through to want to learn more and figure out the remaining paths speaks to the fun the game is. Not to mention the fact that the menu navigation (being able to go in and out easily, fast forward to choices without having to click through all of the dialogue again) is overall a great quality of life idea and implemented perfectly. It is a very short game. For some that could be a bonus if you don't have a lot of time you can commit to a game, but you still want a full story-driven game experience. There were only a couple of sentences I noticed that read a bit funny/contained an error but nothing egregious. There were also maybe two incidents (in a few hours of play) where there was a bit of a visual bug with the characters coming in/out of a scene looking too quick or laggy. Perhaps the only other 'downside' worth mentioning is that the plot isn't likely to astound you - it's not overly complicated or secretive or that deep fam, but for me the light fare was nice. Overall, if you're looking for a PG~ lesbian dating visual novel with a slightly spooky/mysterious flavor I think Camp Palut is something you should pick up!

One thing that stuck out, even early on, was the outfits for each of the characters which I think helps to further distinguish all of them and provide personality that can't always fit into this style of game. Definitely worth a play through!

il y a différente fin possible , un bon scénario et Amy juste Amy est la meilleur , elle est canon, intéressante

A short but sweet mystery VN that scratched my itch for a complex narrative without succumbing to often absurd lengths (looking at you higurashi). Excited to check out other roots.

In Camp Palut, you take on the role of Jess at summer camp in the woods with a handful of other girls. The story is about a girl, Kasumi, that mysteriously disappears. It's up to you and your friends to find her. There are four different routes, and a complete play-through of one of the routes takes about 45-60 minutes. I suppose the story is a mystery, but there is no suspense, no twists, and no real emotion in any of the characters. Maybe I'd recommend it if it were $1.49, maybe, but at $14.99, this is a hard pass; it isn't very good as a mystery and it isn't very good as a yuri, the fact is, it just isn't very good.

[h1]LETDOWN[/h1] Camp Palut is a short yuri Visual Novel that you can fully complete in less than 3 hours. I had a really hard time deciding if I should actually recommend this title. On the one hand, it's not an awful game - it was just fine. On the other hand, ~10 euros for something so short is definitely too much. In the end, I decided to follow my brain and not my heart. I love yuri, but [b]Camp Palut is simply not good enough to recommend it. You may give it a chance, but only after some serious sale[/b] (at least -60% if not more). [b]Story and Characters[/b] I really liked the main idea of the story - summer camp, a small mystery, girls, yuri all around. Sadly, the execution wasn't great. Mystery part was super obvious from the start, buildup to that mystery was too short, and characters were too shallow (but that's because they had no time to do anything). At least flirting with Amy was fun (if you did her route). There's actually some chemistry between her and the main character and you can feel it through the dialogues. I didn't feel the same bond with other love interests. [b]Gameplay[/b] Classic visual novel, with some choices (mainly about who we want to date). Everything worked as it should, and all important pieces were included (like the gallery). [b]Visuals and Audio[/b] The art quality was rather uneven. Great character designs, but forgettable backgrounds. CGs were just average and there were only a few of them (4 for each love interest). Audio... there was barely any audio. Mediocre soundtrack, some background noises from time to time, and no voice acting.
