I’ve been excited to play this game since I tried it out during Next Fest. I’ve almost met all of the love interests so I know I still have a long ways to go, and with all of the achievements I’m excited to try and 100% the game. The voice acting is great, some dialogue choices have gotten a laugh out of me, the character designs are fun and there’s such a quirky and endearing charm to all of the comic book scenes (the bobbing of the character models can sometimes be rather hypnotic, or maybe that’s just me). It gives me the same enjoyment and silliness as the Monster Prom series, but with cooking donuts that get you high! I do hope that we will get more male love interests in the future for a more even balance, but until then, I will enjoy seeing what more this game has to offer!!
I love this game. Its colorful and has my beloved Johnny so already 10/10. It filled the date everything sized hole in my soul!!
五位前任都解锁以后再更新一下~ 虽然这个价格过贵,但是所有角色包括不可攻略NPC都有配音也能看出来是大工程,加上一些动态漫画做得很可爱,还是原谅了。并且我看了一下几乎每个NPC的故事线都还挺丰富的,剧情里涵盖了各种当前流行的梗还有对AI的嘲讽,我好喜欢www 目前玩到第二十天,还没遇到其余两位可攻略女角色,但是第一轮估计先攻略Lucy了,实在是太可爱了,如同真人版Pinkie Pie......MC看起来有自己万正的个人故事背景所以完全是以第三视角心态玩的,怎么说呢我觉得每个前任都挺有自己特点的,包括一些NPC也是!目前非常喜欢Lily呀,那个口音真是每次都会忍不住停下来听完再点击下一句,社交媒体的页面做得非常精细,角色的每一条Post都非常符合角色的性格,社交媒体下的各种评论都很有梗,特别可爱呀。做甜甜圈其实也蛮有趣的,玩着玩着就稍微有些饿了...... 总体我觉得还是不错的,Harry这条线目前展开的是最多的,其实我还蛮吃傲娇前任这款的,尤其是他的配音和文本完美结合在一起,和MC之间那种纠葛感其实很有趣吧,但是我还是更好奇我的天降幼驯染Lucy的剧情啊!Lucy你太可爱了!等我推完Lucy再来补充评论。纵火犯前女友其实也是很有趣的一个角色,高中前任的配音实在是太可爱了,看了一下她的故事线貌似都是和自己的姐姐有关,导致我兴趣爆棚了。目前就是女前任没一个我不感兴趣的......232个成就我到底需要做多久啊!不过也能证明游戏的丰厚程度就是了
Simple but really fun gameplay, you know what to expect there, but super funny too. Really lives up to the comedy of the demo so far. Will update more whenever I finish :)
I'm really enjoying it so far and I'm surprised at how long it seems like it will be!
I had been waiting for this game to come out since I played the demo around 8 months ago and I am not disappointed whatsoever. Honestly, I have a huge soft spot for the Papa's games and somehow, making donuts made me get so immersed in these characters stories! I played 6.5 hours in ONE sitting on launch day. And it's funny as hell. This is definitely worth the try! Flavorful cast of characters and amazing voice acting. I can't wait to get an ending!
I love this Game so much, since I played the Demo in May I wanted to play it, its such a good game and it never gets boring :3
Great game!
i like.....:3 i recommemnd.......
