2024-10-26 | N Sharma | Such a calm and healing game... More than a game it's more of just uncovering a story unfold over time and witnessing idyllic moments. This is the kinda little game that makes you slow down and appreciate life more. I love how despite having children as the main characters, it's far from childish. As a young adult, it feels like the perfect game to remind you to enjoy little moments, and keep the curious child in you alive and satiated! | |
2024-09-09 | Becky Burch | I love the game but I am curious about what version 1 was like since I have never seen it on Google play before. It would be interesting if you put it in English and formatted it for the phone so I could play it to see how it's different from version 2. I also wish that you would put back out all the showa candy shop series instead of just 3. I love all your games always have they're relaxing and fun! | |
2023-04-15 | Elsie Lam | Beautiful story, soothing background music and endearing characters with side stories that'll have you wanting a happy ending for each. The only things I'm not happy about are the constant ads that pop each every 2 mins - very annoying. And you can't skip conversations when you playthrough again. Wasn't able to finish the conversations even though I played thru 3x. On my last playthrough I didn't even get to meet any characters so I gave up. Otherwise I would've given this 5 stars | |
2022-08-02 | Random Measures | Cute concept that seems to have an interesting mystery as well, capturing the adventures of summer. But, the ads often break the game, and I'd prefer if the timer either matched real time or it was easier to estimate when Sousuke would return; the feature definitely feels built around push notifications, which kinda takes the relaxing idle aspect out of it. Still, devs are great storytellers and visual designers, and I'm looking forward to more of their games! | |
2022-06-10 | David Missen | SOM has potential to be fantastic, but doesn't feel finished. The music is sweet but as there's only one tune, it becomes frustrating after a while; specific character music would make the game more enjoyable. The narrative is solid, the characters well-rounded (on the whole), but it's slow going & another dimension (such as some simple puzzles) would break up the gameplay. SOM has great appeal & gorgeous artwork, and has a honest undertone pertaining to the helcyon days of youth. Promising. | |
2022-05-19 | ArchbowMistress | I love it. Simple as that. While not as good as Hungry Hearts Diner, this game still embodies on what I love about your games: individual stories that would otherwise be lost to time. You get attached and learn to love them, faults and all. And I think this game does it quite well. I do wish certain plot lines were better handled and maybe a system that's less chance and more requirement, but I did enjoy that. Would love to see more of this type of game! | |
2022-01-12 | Rowan A | I initially rated this very highly. I had to edit my review, and remove a star, because the game soft locked! I had one more interaction with the mikan man and went to the lighthouse first, completing my collection. I tried everything and the last convo will not trigger. Now I'm on a whole new round, 4th run, which its telling me to go to mikan mountain still, and no matter how many times I go, I CANNOT get the very last convo with him. | |
2021-12-14 | Jackie Wei | The game has very nice art and music, but if you want to see all story tidbits it becomes frustrating to play. You are unable to skip any scenes, so if you're on your 2nd plus playthrough, you have to go through all the text again. When planning your trip and going through different menus, the game bombards you with ads every 2 or 3 screen changes. I would like to rate this game higher, but subsequent playthroughs has soured my experience. | |
2021-11-19 | Syndey Ng | Great game like always. The storyline and the idle way of playing it is definitely charming. Just a few bug need to be fix. Sometimes the character is switched in the dialog, eg Fuma name and character was shown when Sosuke is the one supposed to be speaking. Need some organising with the time line too. Some story are triggered when it's not supposed to. And I'm pretty stuck now. Found all capsules, haven't found treasure. No one on map. Definitely need some help here. | |
2021-10-08 | Jessica Halim | Lovely story and wonderful Art! Though you can play for free (with lots of ads) I really recommend you to pay for VIP as I feel its worth every penny. Not only it's free of ads, you get unlimited magic clock which helps you to fast forward the story line for those who don't like waiting like me. (so you don't have to wait for Sousuke to come back to continue the journey) And it becomes easy for you to get lots of Raffle tickets and Coins (so you don't have to depend on the rigged raffle ticket draw :P) Got stuck a few times during the game on how to proceed, but now only left with just a total of 3 scenes/convo to complete from all characters. TIP: To those confused of how to get TORCH from Emma to get into the Mystery Grotto (whom had left by the time the related scene comes up). You need to finish the main story first, then you can get the Torch from her on the second story line once she arrives. |
