Japanese difficulty: ★☆☆☆☆ (quite easy, N3 being probably enough). Plain and repetitive dialogues, using only standard dialect and a very simple plot.

UI: ★★★★⯪. Potential improvements might include direct gamepad support and maybe optional furigana.

I really liked the graphics, really well drawn and loved that it was based on a real location. Kamakura and Enoshima are really beautiful places (if we ignore the over tourism problem).

Music is reasonable considering the length of the VN.

As for the story, it's well developed, it has good pacing and I think that all in all the ending was done gracefully. The only issue is that I almost needed insulin injections to digest the sweetness of Shiori and Makoto's relationship. Loved it! 💕
