Reviews
Коли я купувала цю гру, я очікувала кумедної пародії на типові отоме-ігри: з гумором, "кемп" вайбом, іронією і несподіваними твістами. В результаті наче це все й було: і "BBL" кінцівка здивувала, і сама ідея смішна та цікава, і пташок я люблю. Але водночас не вистачило саме оцього елементу гумору та іронії, надзвичайно швидко роблячи концепт симулятору побачень з голубами нудним. Ніби гра недостатньо поглузувала з самої себе. Самі ж "любовні лінії" також мене не вразили. Окрім того, що мені не сподобався сюжетний розвиток "основної гри", були проблеми з функцією "save & load" (вона часто тупила і при спробі почати гру зі збереженого місця я застрягала на одному й тому самому скріні, прибрати який можливо було тільки при виході з самої гри). Єдине, що хоч якось для мене врятувало цю гру – "правдивий кінець", що насправді був непогано прописаним та цікавим (особливо у порівнянні з основним сюжетом). Але для його отримання необхідно було отримати принаймні 50% усіх інших кінцівок. Які, знову ж таки, були надзвичайно посередні і однотипні. Загалом, маю дуже змішані відчуття. Це непогана візуальна новела, але жахлива отоме-пародія. Якщо ви не проти витратити купу часу тільки заради того, щоб отримати єдину цікаву кінцівку, то гра може цілком вам сподобатися. Якщо ж ви, як і я, просто хотіли посміятися з незвичного дейтінг симулятору, то це точно не ваш варіант. [u][b]ЗАГАЛЬНА ОЦІНКА: 5/10 (тільки через "BBL" кінцівку та Азамі)[/b][/u]

This game was surprisingly adorable. I picked it up on a whim with zero expectations (pigeons get way more hate than they deserve), but wow, what a plot twist!? I was expecting a cute little cozy game, and then the story went in a very... interesting direction. :D
This game is a horror movie dressed up as a comedy.
On its surface, Hatoful Boyfriend looks like "the silly bird dating sim". However, as I played through the game and its routes, it became apparent to me that Hatoful Boyfriend is more than than its silly premise. Don't be fooled, this is a genuine Otome game that just happens to have datable birds. As you play through each route, you grow to care about these birds and their world. Some routes are silly while others are very emotional. Then there's the BBL route that you unlock after playing all the others, and in true Otome fashion it's an intense route with tons of lore surrounding the games world. It's great. I highly recommend checking out the game and its DLC.
Coo coo. Coooo. Coo coo coo.
absolute cinema
I have 100%'ed and read everything. Doesn't take itself too seriously, it's entertaining. I wouldn't normally play VN's, but did for the gimmick of this one.
i think everybirdie should play this game in its entirety at least once. literally changed my life
One of the first games Ive ever fallen in love with, I played it years ago on an older account didn't realize how deep the story got for the final true ending. I even took a trip to japan and took a train the Bird cafe. I hope you see this review and spend some hours laughing and crying while playing this game. For the pigeon by the pigeon.
don't fall in love with nageki . don't do it . you will go through much mental turmoil . i love you nageki
