Oh wow, where to start. This was such a wholesome game. I think the developers did an amazing job especially given the fact that the base game is completely free. There's also a ton of customisation available for players of all backgrounds. I really felt like it was me and my life.

I didn't expect to love Cove and the entire supporting cast as much as I did. The romance was well done. It started off slow, but you saw how they grew from being childhood friends by circumstances to friends who cared to adults who love and support each other. Dating sims have a habit of highlighting unhealthy relationships so I'm glad that their relationship clearly goes both ways. The game also didn't shy away from family and friendships. In particular, I really liked Mr. Holden's growth in the game.

My only particular gripe is that, for me, there isn't a lot of replayability. I made my choices as me and even if I were to do it again, I think I'd continue to make similar ones. Other than that, super enjoyable, highly recommended.
