To be honest, I have mixed feelings. I found a full gallery save, but I felt discouraged by this game. Maybe because of the mosaic uncensoring patch, maybe because of some bugs, maybe because of how it looked, maybe because of other reasons, why I lost enthusiasm to play. Maybe, probably, eventually I'll play it once again one day, but I won't be in a hurry. There are better games around. Plus, because there were some good moments, a few drops in the ocean.

The application may not function unless a Japanese language pack is set properly in your PC / the System Locale is set to Japanese + free 18+ patch.

I've always thought very highly of Acerola, but this game was one of the lowest quality games I've played. Text cutting off, cut scene problems. It feels like this has come from a studio who has no idea what they're doing instead of a veteran studio. I'm not upset because I can get a refund, but I'm just disappointed.

I bought and played the original game with its R18 content and it is great, Cynthia is personally one of my favorite designs in a character. There is nothing to write home about story-wise, it is a generic fantasy h-game story with Acerola's signature play format of letting you lewd it up very quickly. If you are in the market for an h-game, then I can't recommend the Steam version because it seems like the Publisher, Shiravune, are not going to provide the Steam version with a R18 patch, instead they're going to provide another service with it - so you'll be spending $20USD for $5USD worth of content. In addition, there are some bugs in the game due to removal of content. Its very disappointing that they are doing the Steam-side dirty like this and I can't recommend the game as is. TLDR: I don't recommend getting the game. It is censored and the publishers are not going to provide an R18 patch. Avoid this and support the devs directly via dlsite and not this publisher.

This isn't a bad game, but it is a bad release. The game itself is an early version of the kind of heroine corruption games Acerola makes, similar to Treasure Hunter Claire. Not as advanced as the later versions, but decent. Unfortunately the publisher didn't fully translate the game, so some shop interface text and some battle messages still have Japanese characters. If you don't have Japanese language support installed, this will crash the game. Beyond that the game will not function correctly without the content restoration patch, which the publisher neither mentions nor provides a link to. Without the patch, multiple menu options are removed, and in-battle events break the display causing a cascade of error messages. Unless the translation is completed and the content either restored or the patch provided, I cannot recommend this game.
