Kiss/OFF

game has a lot more depth than i gave it credit for on a first playthrough, all the characters are charming even those that initially come off as unapproachable, overall i found it very enjoyable

This game is SO underrated!!! I don't often leave reviews but this game deserves more attention. Bought it for some light-hearted fun, but the plot is so much more complex than I had expected! It's wowing me at every turn. I haven't finished it but I'm very eager to see what happens!

I can't even get through the intro to this game. As soon as the show host shows up his sprite is bouncing all over the screen. Static sprites shifting around on static backgrounds cause massive headaches for me. I played for less than 20 minutes and ended up with a headache that lingered a couple days. If there's anyone else that also has this problem I recommend skipping this one.

AAAWWWWWWWW

This one flew under EVERYBODY'S radar but I'm really glad I somehow caught notice of it because Kiss/OFF was a total blast start to finish. This is one of the best western visual novels I've ever played -- every character is fantastic and there's a ton of alternate paths based on how well or badly you treat them. The only downside is after a few runs, it can get a bit repetitive going through the motions with each character to find all the endings. Even so, whenever the game branches from its base storyline -- which happens more often than you'd think -- it's extremely entertaining, and the true ending in particular was a blast to run through after what it took to get there. The artwork and music are top tier throughout and it had me constantly guessing what was going to happen next. This one's an absolute hidden gem and I had a fantastic time.

As funny as I had been hoping with a fun, energetic cast with various quirks. Also adorable with its depiction of awkward romantic stumbling....Honestly, that's about as much as I can think to say about it. It's a dating game show in space. Fun characters, fun writing, the occasional "Awww~" moment, that's all it really needs in a general sense. As for the main plot....I was on-board up til the lovey-dovey true ending, because partway in I already started suspecting the inevitable plot twist based off info revealed in each route. I was thinkin' it would involve time travel and a determinator mindset, but it was basically a coincidence and good luck. I don't mind that what happened wasn't exactly like what I expected, but it seemed kinda like a cop-out. Just a little bit. It's hard to explain without spoilers. Point is: I was mildly disappointed by how Deus Ex Machina it all turned out to be. Still a good ending, but I felt it could've been more. As for the other endings, well, I have no idea how to get them besides making everyone hate me, and I feel that ending would not be as satisfactory as the good ending where everyone loves me. I don't want to make characters I like hate me in video games. XD
