Pretty good, it was the first otome I ever played on Steam actually

The most interesting 30 minutes of my life recently tbh

Really long but damn if it ain't worth it -- one of the best visual novels and goes into a LOT more detail than the anime

DIFFICULTY - Not too terribly hard until you kinda have to grind/google where to find certain items if you can't remember off the top of your head lol

GRIND - Yeeeeah its grindy, not gonna lie, but it's fun once you start getting the hang of things

STORY - Follows different quests for different characters, all of which interact in some way or another within the valley itself - I love the friendships made and it's rewarding to know that you (player) helped turn the valley back to its original state

GAME TIME - Not sure as to how long it's going to be because of future updates, but I've played for 92 hours so far and I'm waiting for an update to keep doing quests at this point lol

REPLAYABILITY VALUE - Not sure honestly

PRICE - $30

BUGS - Since it's early access, there are times where it'll zoom into characters and not let you fully exit the game unless you hit the windows key and close the game manually - thankfully there's an autosave function but it really only happens when you're raising friendship levels and it glitches lol

PERSONAL OPINION - It might be a kinda grindy game but it's honestly very relaxing and has been my go-to game when I'm stressed and just want to help out the villagers

OVERALL RATING - 5/5; Highly recommend if you're a Disney fan

GAME: MY LITTLE PONY A MARETIME BAY ADVENTURE

GRAPHICS - Pretty good - the lipsyncing isn't perfect, but from what I and my husband have seen, this game is better rendered than Sonic 06 lmao

DIFFICULTY - Not too hard until you get to some of the minigames - if you lose concentration, omg no

REPLAYABILITY VALUE - Depends

GAME: DOKI DOKI LITERATURE CLUB PLUS!
---
GRAPHICS - Anime style, kawaii tbh

GAMEPLAY - Mouse/Point and Click/Haven't actually tried a controller (?)

AUDIO - Bwoi, this OST makes you feel a range of emotions within 30 minutes or so

AUDIENCE - T/Older - Mature themes that I personally believe kids shouldn't be subjected to (unless they're going through it themselves and want to find an outlet for depression, as long as they're dealing with it in a healthy way)

PC REQUIREMENTS -
(min.) Windows 7/Higher, 4GB RAM, Integrated graphics, 3GB Disk space
(rec.) Windows 7/Higher, 4GB RAM, 3 GB HDD, AMS Radeon 250 v2 2GB or NVIDIA GeForce GT 640 v3

DIFFICULTY - Not too terribly difficult

GRIND - Not much of one

STORY - Captivating, especially the waifus

GAME TIME - 13.6 Hours (Total, personal)

REPLAYABILITY VALUE - Very high if you want the good ending/all CGs

PRICE - $14.99; not bad for the game in full as well as the new features implemented which makes it pretty neat

BUGS - Not even gonna comment, if you know, you know

PERSONAL OPINION - Loved this game wholeheartedly, I love poetry myself and while I enjoyed romancing each of the girls, I can't help but find myself wondering why Monika isn't considered best girl

OVERALL RATING - 5/5. - 8/10 Dokis, 5/10 Tsundere, 4/10 Yandere, 10/10 Just Monika

GAME: COZY GROVE
---
GRAPHICS - Cute, cartoony. Reminds me of Animal Crossing.

GAMEPLAY - Easy enough, you can either use the WASD/mouse or a controller.

AUDIO - Soft, soothing music. Makes the game similar to a daily routine that you enjoy coming back to.

AUDIENCE - E for Everyone.

PC REQUIREMENTS -(min.) 64bit OS & Processor,
win10, Intel Core i5 2.5 or equivalent, 4GB RAM, Intel HD Graphics 4000, 3GB avail. space ;(rec.) 64bit OS & Processor, win10, Intel Core i7 3.0 or equivalent, 8 GB RAM, NVIDIA Geforce 10 Series/AMD Radeon RX 500 Series, 5GB avail. space

DIFFICULTY - Very easy but gets progressively more difficult the more you go on, but the fact it runs on real time (similar to AC) is a good kick in the butt to get you wanting to actually see the progress you make though.

GRIND - You gotta grind a little bit sometimes if you want to keep looking for (specific) items but it's completely up to you if you want to just help the bears for that day or do some piddling 'round the island.

STORY - Without spoiling it, all I'll say is it's like Animal Crossing and Undertale had a baby and this is that baby.

GAME TIME - N/A; 14 hours in so far.

PRICE - $14.99; not bad for a simple little simulator if you just want to relax and do some due diligence for the bears.

BUGS - None so far, developers keep it pretty up to date.

PERSONAL OPINION - I absolutely love it so far and I'll give a full review once I've played the entire game.

OVERALL RATING - 5/5. Truly one of the best games I've played in a while, it genuinely brings a smile to my face when I help the bears and I have a soft spot for games like this.

GAME: PEGGLE DELUXE
---
GRAPHICS - Fairly basic, nothing too fancy.

GAMEPLAY - Remove the orange pegs.

AUDIO - Don't really know, tend to keep it muted so I can listen to my stories.

AUDIENCE - E for Everyone.

PC REQUIREMENTS - Potato.

DIFFICULTY - Very easy and it progesses as the game goes further, but it does have a cap limit.

GRIND - Kinda gotta grind a little to get into the groove of the game but once you start seeing the moves you can make, it becomes easier.

STORY - Not much of one, didn't care. Just wanted to play.

GAME TIME - (personal) 5.7 hours
PRICE - $4.99; pretty good for $5, definitely worth the time and money if you like puzzles.

BUGS - None.

PERSONAL OPINION - Good for relaxation and quick gratification achievement-wise.

OVERALL RATING - 4/5; Gets a little repetitive and boring after a bit but that's why you play it in spurts similar to Sims or Civilization lmao

7/10 Dokis
9/10 Sayori
8/10 Kawaii Dating Simulator
10/10 Just Monika

GAME: FALLOUT NEW VEGAS

GAMEPLAY - WASD/Mouse or Controller

AUDIO - Entertaining tunes and even more if you add mods

AUDIENCE - Teen or older, preferably mature audiences but I started playing as a teen so lmao; Drugs, Violence, standard ESRB stuff

PC REQUIREMENTS -
(min.) Dual Core 2.0 Processor, 2GB Memory, NVIDIA GeForce 6 Series/ATI 1300XT Series
(rec.) Same as minimum

DIFFICULTY - Novice to Expert, you can set it and play at your own pace

STORY - The story is alright, a little less interesting than FO3 or FO4, but then again I'm a sucker for family dynamics and stuff

GAME TIME - 60 something hours

REPLAYABILITY VALUE - High

PRICE - $10

BUGS - A few but they can be fixed with mods/console commands

PERSONAL OPINION - I mostly use Fallout so I can RP Fallout Equestria, and while this isn't the best game, it did give me a little more insight on how/what I want my character to be like

OVERALL RATING - 3.5/5 - Could use slightly better dialogue, marriage options, adoption options, e
