A really fun and unique take on a romance novel, it is a lot better than it might look. It is a true emotional rollercoaster. __________________ [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45534557/]Follow my Curator for more!

Yeah, this is about what I hoped for/expected from the experience. If you're already here thinking about picking up the game, I'd say you should just go for it.

DON'T WORRY GUYS--I asked myself if it was weird to play this game. I said no. Problem solved.

I wish I could give a middle-thumb for this... because while this game series has been near and dear to my heart for so many years and I just spent my Christmas this year replaying this game on Steam... I can't find the DLC anywhere (which I admittedly double-bought because I originally bought the Dove Actually edition, but then when I finally went to play, I couldn't find it and the DLC's store page said it wasn't in my library, so I gaslit myself into believing I hadn't bought the bundle at all... here it's apparently a weird glitch, per a forum from 2015). All of the advice everything gives me is outdated (there's no local/installed files tab under Properties anymore, despite Steam's own advice still suggesting this). I looked under steamapps > common > (the game's name) for it, but nothing's in there but my save file. I don't want to request a refund (which wouldn't work anyway lol), but the forums are dead and I have no idea who/where to reach out to about this otherwise! I just want the DLC I paid for (twice). If anyone who could help me sees this, please send me a comment! EDIT: Oh - and I forgot to mention that, despite the game being deemed "Playable" on Steam Deck, I couldn't play it at all on my Deck... It would launch but then immediately give me an error that it couldn't find some executable file, so I had to play it on my PC. Despite these few hang-ups, though, I do recommend the game! If only because the original is - as far as I know - unavailable or unplayable on modern OS's and versions of QuickTime.

"Fight fire with fire, and hallucinogenic Filipino dove powers with hallucinogenic Filipino dove powers!" this game is amazing, you can be a magical girl, children have a tank, you can punch said tank, the king truly is like a frog leg, the seagulls are racist to you, and Anghel is amazing. 10/10, Nikola Tesla would've loved it
