The original was an interesting take on people avoiding reality, with a made up one. This "reboot" instead is completely in it's own reality. Where the first one was a short game that had the ultimate message of "Go touch grass.", this one's message is... Don't be a super genius that creates the most advanced AI ever known? Not directly comparing this to the previous one, it's a okay visual novel. Not amazing, not awful, but not above the tier of anything you could find free online. The only things that make this stand out are the voice acting and, admittedly, pretty good art. The writing isn't good and they would have benefited from having a proofreader involved in the project, because there were hundreds of errors in the script. If it was free, maybe I'd recommend it, but for a product that costs actual money, no this isn't worth it. Just play the original one.
I played the first one which was short and I liked it, so I got Reboot as well. Ai is amazing and it would be an amazing visual novel if it didn't had the most boring and unlikable protagonist ever... Seriously, Ai is finally with him and he has the excitement of a gravestone. Ai is an artificial intelligence and it has more personality from Yung. I let it run many times, leaving it open and forgetting about it and could not bear to play it for more than a few minutes at a time, but I wanted to see what would happen only to have a true ending which is tragic and a "Good" ending... Ai was amazing, but Yung is literally the epitome of boredom. I would prefer if the protagonist was just the player and we got to act as we want. I hope for a 3rd instalment regardless and I either hope to see Yung more enthusiastic and not like a npc or as I said above for us to be the protagonist. Very good story, but bad protagonist.

This Game is really fun and wholesome yet pretty depressing. Both of the ending really caught me off guard, the true ending makes me feel disgusted of the main character selfish act and the good ending is just so depressing knowing that there's nothing else that the main character can do other than......
玩了免费版的前作再来玩这一作,没想到前作那么短,这一作流程还挺长的。整个故事比较平淡吧,除了结尾部分没有什么剧烈的冲突,两个结局其实都不算是好结局。男主外其他角色有配音这点不错,不用一直看文本那么累了。系统方面稍微有点问题就是没有快进功能,看第二种结局的时候需要重新点很久。5/10
Gioco breve ed interessante, ho impiegato 5 ore circa per vedere entrambi i finali. La trama per quanto breve è interessante, le scelte sono solo tre, ma vista la durata del gioco ed il loro peso non sono poche. Personaggi ben caratterizzati e disegnati, oltre ad una musica di sottofondo gradevole, rendono questo gioco una visual novel non male.
jogo maravilhoso, pena que me deixou com depressão.
What am I still doing with my life? My robot had a period.
Not bad decent writing and voice actor.
A very nice game. Cute character designs. It was a nice build off of the first one in a direction I didnt anticipate. There is only one slightly negative thing I have to say about it: I just wish there were more chances for the player to choose routes. Overall absolutely worth the play and I would really enjoy it if there was a 3rd installment.
In [i]Carpe Diem: Reboot[/i], the storyline of the previous game, [i]Carpe Diem[/i] is expanded in a rather satisfying way. You learn more about the A.I., the MC, and more interestingly, the powers that be in the world of [i]Carpe Diem[/i]. The game features two different endings, leaving the possibility open for two potential paths for a sequel. A sequel I would be quite interested in seeing made, more for [spoiler]a potential redemption arc[/spoiler] than anything else. As they currently stand, the endings are not terribly satisfying, however the gameplay is nice for a casual visual novel experience.
