The censored version is badly broken, many scenes are just black screens or white screens as they couldn’t be bothered enough to make a valid censored version. Most routes are just oh I’ve never been with anyone but let’s do it NOW! Or I am going to get over him by screwing your brains out. Because of this most routes felt shallow and like they were only there to try to slam in porn scenes in the AO version. And yes …

One of the pioneers of dating sims made a spectacular return, and I must say, the new style is growing on me! Dōkyūsei: Bangin Summer… Ah yes, a remake of one of the most popular 1992 VN releases – and wonderfully done at that. The game features Sumeragi Kohaku’s (the original lead artist) new and improved art style, with her sticking close to the source as much as she can; and the oh-so-wonderful gameplay elements …

Let's get one thing of out the way first, while the 18+ patch unlocks sex and nudity, this is not a nukige game but an eroge. I've seen several dumbass reviews here mentioning that the sex was non-existent with fade to black. Except with an exception of a few scenes with the more grown up heroines, the sex scene in this game is handled very well and respectful towards the females. It beautifully showcased the MC's …

(Played with official external content patch) I was aromantic due to trauma before I played this game. I came out of it with stronger romantic feelings in my heart than I ever had before. Doukyuusei healed me. This 1992 (rewritten in 1999) Tokimeki Memorial-inspiring dating sim remake is still brilliant in 33 years later. It explores so many feelings and relationship challenges and worries and insecurities with a …

Now modernized and localized by Shiravune, this version updates the visuals and interface while remaining largely faithful to the original structure and spirit. The premise is simple yet effective: you play as a high school student, Takurou, who has just wrapped …

(If you get the lewd patch) All of this originally came out wile we western savages were still passing around bootleg floppies of Leisure suit Larry. Pretty groundbreaking!

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Doukyuusei: Banging Summer is a dating simulator with decent art and an actual simulation component as opposed to other visual novels. I took interest primarily due to the small quantity of dating sims and the even smaller number with good art. The art and the dating game components are the only two positive qualities I can give to this game. Having never played the original title, I am not judging Doukyuusei: Banging Summer on its faithfulness nor seeking to evaluate Shiravune's port and…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If I can give a mixed recommendation on this game, I would. This game has things that makes it really good but there also things that makes it really bad. I feel like the quality of the game goes up and down mid-playthrough in any route. One moment you enjoy a nice happy fun times, the next is some very odd and random happenings that really made no sense whatsoever. There are a lot of hardcore triggers in the game, luckily they warned you of that. It has plenty of harassment, assault, rape,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I am going to give this game 4 out of 5 stars. To start, this game has an easy mode. I have a full time job, college, and I have a child. I don't have time to grind the game as intended, so I appreciate games that have the feature for people like me. Next, the art is wonderful and the music is great. I actually went and looked at the original and this is a HUGE improvement. The story is good and nice. I will say that each story line is on the shorter side. However, there are a lot of girls…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It looks like the Dōkyūsei remake is currently on sale for $7.99. I believe this is the only available way to play the game in English. My recommendation is to at least play it once without a guide and to play on Classic Mode: store.steampowered.com/app/1689910/...
positive · AI labelView post →I actually have a lot to say about this game. I don't necessarily want to say it in a Steam review. If you're the kind of person that might have an interest in this kind of game, play it. Get the 18+ patch. Adjust the walk speed in the options to make the overworld segments seem less janky. If I spoiled any of the details that someone interested in Dokyusei might find by playing it, I would be doing them a disservice. Instead, I will provide a list of Pro Tips that you might see in a…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →First of all, if you're playing this type of game you should know there's an uncensor patch you need to apply before starting. That takes care of all the "censored" complaints you may see in any other review. Second of all, know that this is a high quality game with a fantastic English translation - it's not like the hordes of cheap hentai machine translated games that flood Steam these days. Now then, Dokyusei is a remake of a classic and beloved 90s PC-98 Japanese Dating Sim by esteemed…

The gameplay is non-existent, it boils down to randomly running around town bumping into girls. The story is short, so woefully short, with a cast of 14 romancable characters the entire text of this novel could fit into a single girl`s arc in some of the other similar titles i`ve played. Most the girls only have a handful of major events one of which is always "go meet them for…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Doujyusei is a remake of a 1992 VN of the same name. It features gorgeous updated artwork but unfortunately also retains some aspects of 90s games I would rather leave behind, namely the use of assault as a plot device and the constant use of sex jokes (some are funny but most do not land). A core gameplay aspect is that you live in a city and have free reign to go wherever, whenever. You advance a character's plotline by bumping into them. At the beginning you have a lot of free time and not…

neutral · AI labelView post →I quite enjoyed this game. I've played quite a few visual novels (VN) before, and they're usually pretty static with an overall story that trails off a little depending on which heroine you go for and the choices you pick during key events. This is my first VN that played more like a proper romance simulator where you have to pay attention to the time and what small things you say in response to heroines and get to move a little chibi character sprite around the map in search of events with…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm writing this review from a POV of a "mainstream" VN reader. I played a few VNs with the map movement feature. But I guess this is my first introduction to the proper "classic Japanese dating sim". And I gotta say, this one didn't hit the spot for me. Really disappointing. My main issue is probably how detached it feels. I don't feel invested in any of the stories at all. The game has many interesting heroines, but they barely have any development at all (or the stories just move too…

Maybe I didn't play enough to tell he wasn't actually like that, or if he changes. But I got mad by the friends voice acting for slurping his drool when seeing one of the women, I mean full on slobbering was all I could hear, couldn't stand it I muted him so fast. So yeah. It looks great the female characters are well done, at least the ones I could talk to even if it was three lines. An argument can be…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have to admit, this VN was a pleasant surprise. I came in thinking it was going to be some cheap H-game but it is much, much more than that. To begin, the art style is incredible. This is a remake of an older game that came out I believe some time in the 90's. The UI and visuals have been overhauled and the colour palette looks vibrant and brilliant. The character redesigns look great and everything has a much more modern feel to it. The game is straight forward and very easy to digest.…

First get the patch (guide to that exists) and try to play in “Classic mode” in the option menu for your blind 1st or 2nd playthrough. - Many reviews mentioned ‘annoying’ game map system having to randomly go in-out everywhere to look for event, but I would say it is charm of this game, it lets you explore this unknown universe non-linearly and let you get each happening by your own effort not just in order of predetermined chapters like in traditional VN.…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Thinking about how close knit the Japanese animation and video game industry were. Masaki Takei leaves Madhouse to work in the games and designs the absolutely gorgeous characters of both Graduation and Dōkyūsei in the same year, making him immediately unmatched in the emerging realm of galge.

And to me this game is a short dating sim where most things fall into cliche harem anime trope. If you want deep plots and characters you won't get it here. The remake art is also nice. I can see why the game was considered a masterpiece decades ago, but I wouldn't say it ages well. Worth it, especially on sale imo. I didn't know about easy mode hence the 24hrs, so it could've been finished it…

Take control of the protagonist and traverse an overworld map, going from place to place talking with friends and love interests, without any bells and whistles to have to deal with. Learn about each girl and their stories and choose your favorite without any twists made for the sake of shock. Definitely worth playing if you want something that isn't complex, and doesn't need to be.

positive · AI labelView post →I had to write a review on this game because it made me feel in a way I've never felt before, and I don't mean that on the positive sense. The part which was the most remarkable for me was how unintetionally self-aware it is. To be brief, most female characters (and even male ones) will frequently comment on the protagonist's obnoxious behaviour of going randomly around town chasing skirts instead of doing something remotely productive of his summer break. This hits a bit hard since we're the…
