Unfortunately the game does not support ultrawide screens, and playing on a tiny window is inconvenient. Wish I could've given it a real go

Story: I wasn't expecting this game to have such a story. I thought it was going to be a simple dating sim that would be funny because of how bizarre it was, but I was surprised. I really like the story in this and how the characters remember past timelines. It's really cool and I loved it.
Graphics: The graphics in this game are good, but the character designs are what shines. Cthulhu looks a bit weird, but I love her. The King in Yellow looks incredible, but nothing beats Nyanlarthotep, she's simply incredible and I'd allow her to take me away.
Sound effects: The sound effects are good, especially in Nyan's trial. Although nothing mind breaking, it's good.
Music: The music is pretty calming, but can quickly switch to something more sinister and full of tension when needed. It's pretty good.
Gameplay: The gameplay is that of a dating sim, but even then it's quite nice to play. Having to perform the rituals is pretty cool, sometimes having to say the lines can get a bit annoying cause of timing, but it's still good. Nyan's trial is specially incredible and I loved it. I just wish the fake monsters were actually real, cause they seem cool. Although it's pretty good as it is. Loved it.

Absolute cinema, literal peak.
The animation 10/10
The writing and VA 10/10
Wish she was real 10/10
Nah, but a genuinely fun experience, both story-wise and gameplay-wise. Multiple paths allow for replayability, definitely worth it either on sale or at full price.

If you want one of the funniest games ever, get Sucker for Love.
If you don't like visual novels, get Sucker for Love.
If you want horror, get Sucker for Love.
But do not get Sucker for Love if you don't want your brain to be rewired because the characters are so well voiced acted and written that you will enjoy monster girls and question your own sanity.

I had this game on my pending list for a while but man I'm glad I played it.
Its quite a good laugh mixed with some dark stuff in between followed by amazing voice acting and dialogue that it just works. And the most amazing thing of all? LUST wins!

Kind of a cute little game, but overall I can't recommend it to anyone. There are other AVNs that are out there with much better story like Leap of Faith if you're looking for relationship/dating sim stuff. This game felt like a rushed version of Slay the Princess to me with a lot of abrupt endings and very little plot. It was still fun, but I wouldn't buy it again.

Unironically pure cinema. I hope there would be a sequel to this storyline. Not only are the dialogue and VA work amazing, but the music and art direction are amazing too, genuinely more than just competent. Even the gameplay is fun even though it's supposed to be just a VN-Dating Sim. Absolutely worth the money.

The trailer and concept got a chuckle out of me and being a long time fan of visual novels (though I haven't played one in a very long time) they got my money, though I wasn't expecting much. So pleasantly surprised. First and foremost, the voice acting in this game really sells it and is my favorite thing about it. The actresses elevate it to a whole different level than the writing alone would have been able to achieve, though that was also enjoyable. The mixture of humor/horror/cuteness is downright masterful and frankly sets it apart from anything I have ever seen. I wish it were longer (though I wouldn't say it's too short for the cost) and will definitely be checking out what else this developer has to offer.
My criticisms are relatively minor. The spellcasting mechanic, dragging the mouse across the words while holding left-click, often seems too sensitive or jittery. This is a problem because if you don't maintain a precise speed and pace, the spell is botched and you have to do it again, or at certain parts you can even be immediately killed because of it, requiring a load to an earlier checkpoint. It can be pretty frustrating but it's possible I could have mitigated this by adjusting my mouse settings (never tried, just bullied through it). Might be worth trying if you have similar frustrations. I also would have liked to be able to back up conversations or be able to view what has already be said in a log (a common feature in visual novels). Those are really the only things I can think to complain about and when compared to how great the rest of the game is, negligible.
I'm going to have that incredible end credit song stuck in my head for WEEKS!
EDIT: Forgot to mention, it's kinda graphic and dark at times (the game gives a warning about this content upfront). I wouldn't say it's anything crazy or gratuitous but if that kind of content is generally disturbing to you, maybe not for you.
