i wrote a review for this but i meant to write a comment LOL, so here it is again, in full honesty: this review is about 3 years late, though i did start playing in august ‘22 so maybe it can be considered two. i think there is not much more that i can say that hasn’t been said already about the game: it has brilliant writing, the cast are made of incredibly believable people and the devs have created something so comforting that i found myself filling up the save slots with countless moments i wish to relive all over again. i found blooming panic when i was in need of a community and some sense of sanity (guess who was going the exact thing xyx did on his route LMAO), and i never thought a silly visual novel i downloaded could be a part of my life so fast. recently visited again after having gone through many perspective changes as i am no longer the same person as the one who was playing this on repeat, and i still find so much joy in the storyline, the characters, the music, the design and the community at large. highly recommended.
