Thought I had already reviewed this, but guess not.
This game belongs in top 5 for sure.
If the game keeps up it's quality to a completed state it will probably make top 3 for me. The graphics are amazing, obviously not for everyone, but I'm personally a fan of the honey select like style, especially when used as well as this.
H scenes are animated, and allow switching between several camera angles.
However, what really makes the game shine is the writing. All the datable characters are insanely loveable. For a game with a character like Sophie that must be protected at all cost, and is honestly just the perfect character, to have 5+ other characters that are equally loveable is unheard of and ridiculous.
Furthermore, it's a wholesome harem game where everyone in the harem are friends and support eachother, even if some of them act like rivals on the surface.
Best of all it's a harem game where they actually talk about that fact, and don't just brush it under the rug, making the wholesomeness of the love harem even more amazing and loveable.
With most H games I am terrified when they get an update, because so often they reduce in quality, or do something I really dislike story-wise that turns me off from the game. I feel the same way with Murmur, but everytime I download a new chapter it suprises me by being even better than the last. I hope this trend continues, and have faith it will.
Only slight negative I have comes down to personal taste, and that is the shinigami character (Ami). Personally, when someone acts as bitchy as she does + bossy, I dislike it. Unless, it's mostly a surface act and they show a more loving side occasionally, even if by accident. (best of all if they choose to show it at times).
However, this far she hasn't really done that. I don't hate her, and she doesn't ruin the game, because she is never outright evil or mean, but I hope to see more of a loving side of her eventually.
(realize according to the walkthrough you can get a love point with her, if you have 0 lewd points with the other girls, but by then you are basically dancing around most of the content, so why would you do that?).
PS: even the sound design is pretty alright, music is pleasent. Though I as always would love more active sound usage, especially during H scenes, but that's a rarity, and I appreciate what we have.
