LuGame: Lunchtime Games Club!

Black Miku is a guy: Confirmed. Edit: Dev done perma-banned me on 3 infractions of hate speech and harassment, too bad you can't delete reviews 🤣🤣

If I could give a neutral rating I would, it's not bad enough for a not recommend, but it's also doesn't really do anything to set itself apart from other VN's. Also for some reason it was tagged as having sexual content and nudity for awhile, it doesn't.

💋

Yes.

Great animation, good story and fun to play

Visual Novel bastante divertida, valeu o investimento, a única ressalva é que o jogo parece incompleto, meio que acaba do nada e deixa coisas pra resolver em pós-créditos. Ainda sim, recomendo para qualquer um que esteja na dúvida.

A very cute LN with great characters. The Halloween and Date a Robot expansions are also very cute and well done. No major complaints, anything I could point out would just be nitpicking. Would love to see another one from the dev!

Игра не оправдавшая ожиданий. Думал ознакомлюсь со вступлением, проскипаю пока не надоест и удалю. Но игра мне понравилась, что я прошёл все 3 рута, бонусную главу и игру в игре - которая уже не визуальная новелла, а что-то типа игр на NEC PC Engine конца 80-ых (звуковое сопровождение соответствующее), где надо ходить по комнатам школы и искать взаимодействия с предметами и персонажами. Мне очень понравилось визуальное оформление, даже титры со вкусом сделаны. Из дизайна мне противна черномазая Алекс, странное сочетание негритоски с синими волосами, ещё и плоскодонки, бе. Сюжет же простенький, без изысков, не всегда даже вчитывался и кусками бывало проскипывал. Подруг набор характеров так же стандартный для жанра. Но новеллой доволен. Для ожидающий 18+ контент, тут на него даже намёков в словах нету, не говоря уже что бы рассчитывать увидеть визуальную обнажёнку.

[h1] LuGame : Lunchtime Games Club — Played: 2.5h | Achievements: 10/10 | Steam Deck: Supported[/h1] [quote] TL;DR: A cute, non-Japanese-looking manga-style harem/romance VN about games, food, and school vibes. No real mature content (swimsuits + mild mentions like alcohol). Easy 100% (10/10) with cards. Overpriced at ~7.99€ — recommend only on a good sale. [/quote] Lunchtime Games Club is a light romance VN with a manga-ish art style… but you can tell it’s not Japanese. It has that “indie VN trying to look anime” vibe: colorful, cute, clean enough, but not exceptional. The premise is simple: school life + games + food + hanging out. The cast is pure archetypes, like a checklist of “VN harem tropes”: the nerd, the top student, the student council president, the best friend, the cheerful chubby girl, etc. There’s no real mature content here. I saw some mentions, but in practice it’s very tame: swimsuits at most, a bit of talk about alcohol, nothing explicit. It’s basically safe for everyone (even if some character designs are… generously endowed). Gameplay is VN standard: click, read, make choices, unlock multiple endings. No voice acting, though — which makes it feel a bit more “budget”, even if the soundtrack does its job. It’s also a good “achievement hunter” snack: I got 10/10 pretty fast, and it has trading cards too. So: it’s fine. Cute. Relaxing. Not memorable. The real issue is price. Around 7.99€ feels too high for what you get. If you grab it on a good sale, it becomes a much easier recommendation.

Nothing mature, nothing groundbreaking, but it does its job. Just don’t pay full price — at ~7.99€ it’s too expensive. Grab it on sale.
