Story of a male student and its school life who eventually falls in love. Many decisions to take, a couple of female characters who the protagonist has to choose from, and great good and bad endings. Story is definitely far from generic and has quite a few very interesting twists. It is well written, with lots of ups and downs, with quite a few funny moments intersped with times of great sadness. Lovely and well drawn artwork and CGs. My only issue with it is that the background NPCs are exaggerated a little too much and sometimes out of place, for the sake of comic effects. Great music though could use a little more variety of soundtracks. The main issue with the novel is its rather poor English translation. It is in general understandable, so if you do not understand it I still recommend getting it, though as someone who can understand spoken Chinese, there are many moments where context is lost to some degree. Given the low price and the long and engaging story line, I do still think is great value besides its shortcomings. Rating: 8/10 based on the English translation alone, 9/10 ignoring it.

*I AM NOT DONE WITH THE GAME YET.* I actually like this game so far, i really do, it's entertaining and have *some* pretty groovy music. Its english traslation is a bit (let's be honest) very broken, but you can still understand it. (most of the time. It's like 1/100 you won't understand) some examples quotes here 1." she wave at me with smile 2." you eat a little bit little today 3." you need to look in heart the grammar is completely gone! dead! Thanose snapped out of existence! etc. Like you understand, its just a bit annoying to read somtimes. Not every Sentence is broken, there are fine and correct ones. I bought the game on sale for 5 euros-ish and i regreat nothing so far. So yeah i recommend this game, but only on sale. Don't pay full price, it's not worth that much money Edit :okay so i've finished the game some time ago, and to be honest... It's a pass really! unless it's on sale, you could still go for it on sale.

I'll say this upfront: the English translation is horrendous. Spelling and grammatical errors aside, there are a lot of awkwardly worded phrases (i.e. "You cheated me!" should mean "You tricked me!"), incorrect gender pronoun uses, inconsistent phrasing (Haiyin's catch phrase is translated differently almost every time she says it), and mix ups between Hengyi/Fengyi/Fengxi's names. You will likely need to read sentences multiple times to infer the intended meaning. The overall quality is reminiscent of using a text hooker and dictionary software to auto translate your visual novel. Now, if you can get overlook the flawed translation, the result is a wild roller coaster of emotions and plot twists and turns that will keep you hooked. You will constantly question the motives of everyone and everything that is happening around you, and just when you think you had things figured out, the game pulls a fast one on you and stabs you cruelly in the heart while opening another can of worms. The visuals are beautiful and humorous where appropriate, and though a lot of the sound effects are unfitting or weirdly used, the music captures the mood well, and the voice actors do a fantastic job at conveying emotion, alleviating the awkwardness of the translation. This visual novel is long...VERY long. Honestly, the developer could have shortened a few scenes and cut out some fluff. However, it is very thorough in making sure there are no plot holes or unanswered questions (assuming you see all the good endings), leaving a good feeling in your heart.

True Love ～Confide to the Maple～ has a compelling story and the art looks pretty good. Voice acting was ok but has worst sound effects from all the VNs that I've read/played. It features a few good soundtracks that were used seldomly in the game. The only thing that would convince people not to recommend is the quality of English translation. I can't read Chinese so I'll put reading the other 4 endings on hold until they update the translation. This has the worst translation from all the VNs that I've read. It is flooded with grammatical errors and typographical errors, worst is that they even jumbled it with the character's names that has little difference with spelling i.e. Hengyi, Fengyi, Fengxi. There were a lot of times I had to figure things out myself using the context because of their translation mistakes. I won't delve deeper with the translations because even with though there are sentences that don't have errors most of these lines just don't flow naturally. The plot twists kept me at odds with choosing between the two heroines which helped me put up with bad translation for over 20 hours just to finish one route (no more options were presented when I finally made up my mind); content/length wise it is worth the price. I really thought I'd have a bad end for my first playthrough, that said I didn't really know how my in-game choices affected the game's outcome. I'm recommending this game if you can read Chinese and just hold off until they update the translation if you want to read it with english subtitles. I'm not recommending against this game because I still hope the studio gets enough budget to release a decent english translation.

Just want to point out that this indie group(?) is famous in China for making the murder mystery "The Revenge of Snow"（雪之本境）series,It's almost funny that despite they made a love story this time ,many of us still keep having a feeling like"This guy is going to be murdered ,that person looks like the murderer"while reading through the story Please be noted that this game does NOT have an English version for now(I heard it's going to be released at the end of this year, around Christmas maybe?),be awared of it if you want to buy this
