Kaichu - The Kaiju Dating Sim

It's cute, but shallow. It feels more like a Tinder match for a quick hook-up as opposed to being a dating sim. Characters are fickle. You need to get the best answer nearly all of the time. I played through one ending with Tephra. Animations are cute. The questions asked are answered by best guessing what the character would like. Tephra is a volcano, so things related to volcanoes are usually the right answer. It's shallow, so, so, shallow. And while that first run was ok, it was ok in the most minute of ways. It's like sitting on the couch casually watching Netflix while you doom scroll on social media. It's just a way to pass time. The gameplay loop is similar if you choose someone else. From a dating sim perspective this is woefully absent of the things that typically make this genre enjoyable.

I enjoyed playing Kaichu, the cutesy artstyle and the concept are really good. Sadly it gets repetitiv after a few dates , the questions and the story are all the same. I wished that they played more with the idea they had for example maybe if there were like events/minigames for each character or paths that lead to a good/neutral/bad endings. Overall maybe a 6/10

Be forewarned if you're planning to play this using mouse and keyboard that the game is unplayable. An action as basic as making it to the main menu is impossible as the game does not recognize the default US keyboard layout, pretty wild.

i honestly loved this game as there is kinda an excess of dating sims i was kinda iffy about getting it but i'm glad i did. everything was nice to look at and also kinda calming in a weird way. i enjoyed how silly this can get and it does not take it self to serious. over all 100/10 <3

Repetitivo porém divertido! Turpio foi meu kaiju favorito.

This was a short but sweet game, all of the story lines are so cute! It worked on handheld on steamdeck for the most part except when I had to press A, but just pressing it five or six times got it to move on and it didn't cause too much of an issue with the overall gameplay ♥

Жалко в стиме нет нейтрального отзыва. Игра на 1 раз, мило, с юмором, но ничего бы не потеряла, если бы не купила эту игру ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
