Chapter 1: Moving into Qixia Apartment and Meeting Her Flavorful “Roommates”
At the start of the new semester, Sheng Sheng moves into an old house called Qixia Apartment located on the shore of West Lake in Hangzhou, where she quickly realizes that co-living here is anything but ordinary:

Long Siyue (personified Longjing Shrimp): A razor-tongued, logic-driven computer genius.
A Chuan (personified Pian’er Chuan Noodles): A gentle, reliable, healing-type older sister.
Living under the same roof with three distinctive girls—each inspired by a famous Hangzhou dish—their daily squabbles, teamwork, shared meals, and heartfelt chats create a lively, cozy symphony of laughter and warmth.

除了美术一无是处
好玩!!!
很好玩,就是剧情太短了,希望作者能在更新更新

游戏不错开放式结局,前面的神秘人和后面的时间相对论也给剧情增加了扑朔迷离的疑题希望制作组可以在后面继续做下去 𝑪𝒊𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒐~(∠・ω< )⌒☆
虽然现在已经转为付费了,但这仍然是一款(部)优质游戏(小说)
这是我玩的第53部galgame。由于目前该游戏仍处于开发阶段中,写个随时更新的评测占坑。 剧情比较日常且有地域特色,四位女主(当前版本)还挺好看(另外定胜糕拟人有点可爱……)。但是吧……这美食拟人除了定胜糕和片儿川之外,其余并没看出来有啥美食特色啊……另外:1.部分剧情不加点CG吗,尤其是第一章的合照部分?2.军训时候几位主角的立绘差分严重不足,军训的时候应该穿的军训服啊,但是立绘无差分。 此外,剧情跳过有些转场小动画暂时没法跳过,等后续更新解决吧。 期待后续更新新章节。催更!!!!!!
游戏流畅运行,没有卡顿黑屏。悬疑部分的氛围塑造不错(音乐也很带感)。平淡日常也很暖心,能够让人笑出来。但日常部分有时候有点唐(从而显得一点生涩).... 就目前而言,剧本和文笔的水平是可以的,给人期待;UI和CG的精美程度倒无所谓了。立绘一般,胜胜还是很可爱的。 忘了存档,BE之后按Ctrl发现:在对话的结束后,画面停滞稍微久了些,频频发生,导致快进很难受。
不赖,爱来自宝石山后山() 就是刚才下了个更新包之后把我的存档给吃了,真的觉得好迷。。。 还有就是能不嫩有对话的配音,虽然说像我们这种还会杭州话的00后也少见了()
真的挺不错,富有青春气息,虽然没有配音(正因如此在有段唱歌的剧情,我看着下面不断浮现的歌词,就在我料想没声音是正常的时候,随后耳边突然响起甜美的歌声,这种前后反差拥有异常强烈的感染力),文字描写非常有画面感,代入感很强,总之比某些白开水文笔强多了,就好像真的带我穿越到了本科刚入学的时候。背景音乐用得也很讲究,制作组是懂得怎样利用声音加强游戏体验的,特别有几首质量很高。 整体看下来,足见制作组的用心,以及较好的审美。但是可能因为题材原因受众并不多,在这个日渐浮躁的环境里算是一股清流了。
