read this in japanese. sadly the abysmal writing isn't a translation issue. the boys are nice though. cute slice of life thing

Looking back on this, I was mad to give it two and a half stars. Re-reviewing just to lower my rating lmao

All reading, no choice.
I get that it's a free one off thing, but I expected more from the Nekopara people.
At least the voices are nice.

shockingly bad writing like had my jaw to the floor

Come on Nekoworks, give us a proper 20+ hour VN with these goobers; I (among many others) would gladly shell out the money.
Also, Unity? For a bloody VN?


The art is very cute but that pretty much all it has going. The controls are annoying, theres no skip button at all? No choices to be made, basically just a story but you pick who the romance is between. The mc doesnt talk at all just gets talked at?

Honestly kinda boring? dialogue is fine and there's not really anything else to it.
also let me play a as a dude.
I know what I am.

Too sweet? Perhaps there were no characters that would interest me. And a story written with a bias in moe is usually not for me. Also a terrible engine for VN.

öncelikle bu oyun ücretsiz, büyük bir yapım değil ona göre değerlendirecek olursam gayet iyi. oyun süresi çok kısa, bir routeu bir oturuşta bitirebilirsiniz. benim sıkıntım romance olmaması. kardeşim ben otome tadında bir novel oynuyorsam romantizm olsun ya. sadece hinted anlar oluyor o kadar. fakat kısacık hikaye için route başı 3 cg çizilmesi takdirimi kazandı ki çizimleri de kaliteli. karakterler pek tipim değil o yüzden iki karakterin routeunu oynadım ve bitti o kadar. öylesine boşsanız falan oynanır oynamaya gerek yok

definitely a video game i've played

Fuera mame, el mejor juego de Nekopara...

catboy designs couldnt save this even if it tried

It's cute but very, VERY simple. Firstly, they don't let you choose ANY option ??? It's click and read. The "routes" are very short and doesn't feel like a true romance story at all, it's a slice of lifeish, 0 development and 0 interesting plot. Considering the girls game has been properly made it's disappointing to find out this one it isn't. I only give it one star because the designs are cute at least. It has potential but it's completely wasted.

Finding out this was a free demo makes so much sense because it felt like a prologue and a Day 1 and that's it.
Dill is the only route that actually provides, I loved Kennel but I was so confused when it ended abruptly because his had the least romance, I don't think the writers even expected anyone to like Sage and starting off a VN route with "I see you as like a little sister" is WILD and I genuinely miss the person I was before doing Laurier's route because wtf (for a VN love interest that is clearly so main character coded I've never been so repelled - if there was an option to adopt the other three and trade Laurier for a dog, I'd take it).
Voice acting, music and character design slapped though which makes the disappointment once you realise how little there actually is so jarring. Some parts are genuinely funny and entertaining and cute. Its like they couldn't decide if they wanted to make an April Fools joke or an actual fun little game and ended up mashing together both.

The fact that this is one of the only Nekopara games without hardcore eroge scenes is honestly a tragedy. This may be a silly little free demo released as an April Fool's joke but I need to have sex with Dill so bad.

It ends before it begins.
While the characters are cute and are each eagerly awaiting your affection-- the routes finish as you begin to understand each other. So... there is no romance really.

NEKOPARA - Catboys Paradise is a Visual Novel with fully voiced characters and pretty character design! There is 4 routes for each character, but sadly, there is no actual choices or different endings for any of them, so you basically just read a story that is already predetermined. All of the characters were well designed and interesting looking, but sadly none of them jumped out to me as a favorite. Usually I manage to pick one favorite from these type of games, but here all of the characters were just average for me and not very interesting.

I was also not very happy about how the main character has no written lines at all and they do her "dialogue" with nods and shakes. It comes of as unrealistic when the romancable character asks a question and the MC just nods, and then they explain a really long answer, that wasn't actually said by the MC at all. The nods and shakes were also usually unrecognizable from each other and it was hard to tell what the shake actually meant.

I think a positive thing about this game was that the characters were really well voice acted, but sadly all of the catboy sounds made me cringe really bad and I had troubles actually following what they were saying. The artwork was very beautiful however and I really liked the CGs provided in the story.

I was told that there might be a fully-fledged sequel eventually, and I really hope there will be. I hope that they will fully flesh out the characters and make them actually interesting. Choices also are important in games like these, so I hope those will be added.

In the end, this game is free, so if you are at all interested, just play it! I didn't really enjoy it that much, so I won't recommend the game, but you might enjoy it, so you won't loose anything by trying!

would give one full star if i could be male mc jk this game sucks balls
