You’re a journalist covering one of the hottest stories of the year, the group Stellifier is making a comeback. Older, hotter and still got the grooves. It also helps that they are all single. 🎵

The Story

You’re a journalist with Farbright Magazine chasing after the biggest and hottest story of the year, the group Stellifier is making a comeback and you get to record their journey. You can play as a female, male or non-binary MC and three potential romances include;

Frey (He/Him) – “A teacher who would not hesitate to put you in detention” – Frey is very intense and hard to read but also has a possessive streak.

Hawkins (He/Him) – “A rebel with no morals but a whole lot of passion to give” – He is the flirt of the group, a big sexy flirt. (Not complaining). He starts sweet-talking you the moment you meet him.

Mikael (They/Them) – “The kind of angel who does not mind playing devil’s advocate” – Really the one who comes across as kind, sensitive and always trying to reel Hawkins back from overdoing it.

🌶️ Spice Level – medium. All the spice is in the dialogue for the most part with a topless photo here and there but nothing lewd or graphic.

Settings, Features & Gameplay

Settings & features include; audio controls, text options, screen ratio, resolution, and fullscreen or windowed. You can skip text, hide the hud and there is an in-game log but no rewind option.

The gameplay loop takes place over 5 days and then resets to day 1. Each play-through allows you to pursue a different member and do events you have not yet unlocked.

Collectables and Planning your Schedule

✨ Collectibles are the highlight of this game and there are many cool things to get. Besides a lot of cg’s and the endings there are backgrounds you can unlock and expressions for each member. You can also change their clothes! From an on-stage look to casual. You also receive, from time to time, personal messages you can listen to from each member and they are voice acted (and very well done).

Gameplay does have an interesting twist where you progress the story by planning your schedule. Pick who you want to spend time with and what you’re going to do (interviews, tours etc). Some events can only be scheduled at night and some during the day.

You can see your romantic progress with each member and there is a neutral and good ending for each one.

The Visuals & Audio

The music is a blend of electronic and pop. It is okay, it starts to sound very one-note however after a while. There are no ambient sounds that I could detect (noises to make the environment seem more alive). There is voice acting (very well done) for the personal messages you get from the members.

Visually the main characters look great, all handsome and unique looking. The rockstar looks with some being the bad boys and one being the angel. They do have facial animations but their poses are pretty static for the most part. The art however really shines in the many beautiful cg’s you can collect, I just wish they were all art of the characters and not the backgrounds (which are meh for the most part).

Overall Experience

I really ended up enjoying this game. I am still trying to get all the goodies unlocked but have gotten all the good/romantic endings with each member.

The collectables with all the gorgeous cg’s to get, the backgrounds and expressions to unlock is such a fun and different element to an otome. I also really like how you can choose what they wear. I do think it would have been cool to unlock different outfits for them too.

As the main character what I appreciated is in your responses you can choose to be level headed and business like or be a flirt. And I do mean you can really flirt and be bold, and some of the responses were golden. The fun writing, the flirty moments mixed with some heartfelt ones and the collectibles all come together to make this a fun time. 💖
