Sentimental Death Loop

Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Aug 21 → 0/day in the week after.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.

Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

all of the criticism about this game is right; the controls are a bit wacky, it's pretty repetitive (which was to be expected for a time loop game, but still), it's not obvious what you have to click on to progress and having to reinvestigate everything for the side stories was a little annoying. hell, the story itself is pretty predictable and run of the mill, and the constant panty shots and stuff are... unnecessary. one person even said that you shouldn't need to use the guide for the entire game, but to me personally, it didn't fully take away from the experience. despite everything bad i have to say about it it somehow intrigued me and kept me hooked. i really like these characters and the art style is cute, i think they and the plot could've been expanded upon in a visual novel like setting, but the way it is now is far from the worst game I've ever played. the endings were kind of fast paced, i would've LOVED to see their friendship from the start with nemu's steady decline and then a slow, cliche "friendship beats all" ending since that's what they were going for anyway. the true ending made me tear up a little though, and the epilogue left me with more questions than answers. i think if you're like me, mostly just curious based on reviews or because a friend talked about it, wait for a sale. it isn't $20 good, but it's a decent game to squeeze a few hours out of.
