This is probably one of the best games for learning about how being Trans, and Aroace can effect someone. Although there are some things for being a Lesbian. This game handles everything so well, and showcases the more difficult parts and the discrimination that usually comes with being trans, but also shows that the world can be a super nice place too, and how supportive people can really be with all that stuff. Overall a really good game, and would reccomend to those who are a bit unknowledged on how that kind of stuff works. I actually played One Night, Hot Springs 6 years ago pretty much, and you know that story still makes me cry a lot, as I knew I was trans at a very young age, and it always made me feel isolated and scared of the world around me. And these stories capture it very well. I am now a very happy positive and bright transgirl, and I have a wonderful supportive wife now. 'v '

Sweet little game, definitely worth a couple of bucks. I wish there was good trans representation in media like this; and just overall more LGBTQ+ representation in general. I know there is a bunch more nowadays, but in 2025 it doesn't feel like things are getting better for us whenever you look at what's happening in the world. So finding something endearing like this, makes me feel happy :]

I'm so glad I bought this game. It's cute, sensible and gives a good example of what's like growing up as a queer person. Totally worth it.

Very cute little game, that i, as a trans woman, could relate very heavily too. Its a visual novel with a few different endings to see, very light hearted but the dialogue often made me pause for a moment and made me think about our world and myself. if you're LGBTQ+ in any way this game will delight you and if you don't know much about transgender people it will explain who we are quite well, it also does a really good job explaining trans related issues and hardships. The first chapter of the game is also free under the name "one night, hots springs" but for me it was worth the 3,24€ i payed during the summer sale, as this game made me think and reflect on my own insecurities and hardships. The art and music is also lovely!
