alias_sqbrThe game of the month for April is Mystic Messenger, a phone based dating and management sim that plays out in real time.
EDIT: OOPS WAIT I was going to post the game of the month question and then suggest Mystic Messenger. Sorry about this but now I've done it I don't feel like changing everything, so! By my fiat as mod we are having a month and a bit of Mystic Messenger. Democratic choice will return in June.
The game involves joining group chats, answering emails, messages and phonecalls, all simulated within the game in real time.
Content notes: suicide, iffy portrayal of mental illness and alcoholism, implied eye injury, familial abuse, brainwashing and drugging, homophobia, racist stereotypes
I played it a while ago and wrote up my reactions, I overall enjoyed most of the routes I played but some aspects of it bothered me especially in the later routes. Also: I fell in love with the female LI but her route is ambiguously romantic at best ;_; And the real time aspect is very annoying if you're not willing to throw piles of money at the game. My full review
Have you played it? What did you think?
