Romeo Must Live Reviews

Short, fun and charming game. You wont find anything too deep or ground breaking story here, but the drawing is nice enough, music is fitting, enough choices for you to put in personality of Romeo. For the price, it is good enough. Though if author want to make more of VN may I suggest put a portrait of the character down next to to text so we can observe the change in facial expression.

TL;DR: I can't recommend this game due to the price versus the content, especially in the realm of the offered sexual content. If you're here expecting porn, you're going to be disappointed. 4 sex scenes with only 1 image per scene and lackluster dialogue during the sex scenes. Given the price tag, you're way better off searching elsewhere for an erotic experience. If the "Lewd Romeo and Juliet" aspect sounded interesting to you, 3 out of the 4 sex scenes are with unique characters not from the original work, and the last is Juliet. ----- Your first question may be in regards to how closely this resembles the original story, to which the answer is: Not really close at all. Aside from some namedrops, most of the characters really aren't from the original and the game is mostly a spin-off with a take on a less-violent form of moving through the story. + Minor spelling/grammatical errors, usually as harmless as a misplaced comma or an easily-overlooked misspelling. The Config dialogue window IS still in Japanese and wasn't translated but that's honestly really harmless. + Star Wars references out the wazoo when it comes to General Kenob-- N*groni (his name is censored on Steam lmao). Also a Mario reference. + Art is really unique and stylized. The eyes aren't for everyone, if you don't like characters staring deep into your soul, you may be a bit put off, but it's not really a big deal or worth deducting points for. - There are 4 sex scenes if you have the 18+ DLC. All of the scenes consist of one image per scene with no alterations to it and the sex scenes themselves are pretty short with uninteresting dialogue. - There's only a small handful of character models. Romeo, Juliet, N*groni, and the three additional girls you can woo are the only ones with models, even if other characters are present. This isn't terrible, but for the price I was hoping for some more substance. - Short; Not technically an issue but for the price, I was hoping for more in terms of gameplay length. - Very little actual ties to "Romeo and Juliet." I was kind of hoping for a lewdification of the Romeo and Juliet tale, but it was kind of just an entirely separate story that is loosely based on the original work.
