I like that I got to look for something else than cats for once, but, man… if I somehow thought to check beforehand and learned that this has speedrun achievements, I never would have touched it.
I'll just let this review take it from here, since it's done a perfect job with all the complaints I also have about this game.

A spin-off for one of my favorite franchises in which nothing bad happens? …well, that's not exactly true, but still, count me in!
It's Sachiko's birthday and the joy clears her heart enough to stop the usual carnage for an entire day. Everyone who's been trapped in Heavenly Host up until now, though, has to go along with her ridiculous ideas for how to celebrate. Old or new, everyone gets played like a fiddle; it's an unstoppable barrage of comedy.
As some reviewers have put it (and I agree), this game is best ignored if you found the mainline titles just "okay". The sense of humor remains the same and now that it's been over a decade since Hysteric Birthday first released, the "2010s anime"-type comedy is clearly identifiable as something even Japan has moved on from. Personally, I'm irked by the double standard of having three separate female characters be obsessed with their besties to the point of lesbianism, but as soon as two guys are alone in a room together, the joke is that it's "disgusting" or otherwise "unspeakable".
Next up, Blood Drive!

Removed from the store for reasons unknown, HeartFinder is… ah, well, you all know what it is. You get to click'a the thing it says in the title and enjoy the achievement(s). Cute enough for what it is, with a map that unlocks piece by piece as you complete minor tasks and a hint option that doesn't have a cooldown. I needed a pick-me-up after that Naomi disaster.

Same old, same old.

There's no "drag to color" option, only a bucket fill. You have to remember to toggle it for every single image. There's also no option to mute SFX, so even if you mute the music, you're stuck listening to the annoying clicking and popping from the game while your audio of choice plays in the background. I'd rather pick real cross-stitching back up again.

When I first learned was reminded that my favorite VA was doing the JP narration for this one, I knew I had to pick it up the next chance I got.
I like the occasional hack-and-slash, but I can't pretend like I'm any good at them, so I'm glad that the meta aspect took precedence over the intricacies of the gameplay (quite a long-winded way of saying I played on Easy). Still, I feel I've come out having gotten little to no understanding of the story at hand.
I think a more complete experience would come naturally to players with an interest in the Cthulhu Mythos and/or mining a game for easter eggs and hidden data after having explored the surface. Me, I just had a good time toying with the narrator's feelings.

This puzzle game spin-off of two (as of yet) unlocalized Frontwing titles - Pure Girl and Innocent Girl - lets you hang out with the heroines from both games and seduce them with your puzzle skills. Buyers beware, they are anything but pure or innocent…
Also, please disregard all the negative reviews from people who came in expecting HuniePop; that's not it! It's not even remotely trying to be HuniePop! If you think of it as more akin to Puyo Puyo, you'll be far less disappointed.
I don't even think I'm good at games like this, but it provided a decent challenge and I'm proud to say I completed it without ever lowering the difficulty or downloading the "easy mode" patch. Now, I wonder if this experience will actually translate to Puyo Puyo…

Some kinda steampunk VN, I guess? It spent an hour introducing a bunch of characters and then cut off right as the story would be taking off. There's a second chapter, but judging by the reviews for that one, there's not much more to it, so I think it's safe to assume this one never arrived at its conclusion.
As is par for the course for games made by Sapphire Dragon Productions, this one is a solid 2/10. Had I known it was that short, I definitely would have played it earlier.
Now that I have, though, I'm pleased to say there's nothing more left for me to play from this dev in my backlog. Whether or not the last few games make their way into my library at some point remains to be seen.

Finished the 21 question game with -$43.000 and the 7 question game with -$5.000. I do not know shit about sports.

I really thought this was going to be just a simple slice of life story about a guy who goes on a trip with his wife and daughter… then there turned out to be a whole-ass age regression/body swap plot (depending on which route you play) for no apparent reason besides "there needs to be drama"?
Unfortunately, the writing is so bad I couldn't help but read with my eyes glazed over. The scenario writer seems to have an okay grasp on English, but is not a native speaker and it shows.
Although the sex scenes weren't any better than the rest of the story, I somehow didn't entirely dislike them. I think the fact that they're all centered around a happily married couple and MC not being so perverted it's unbelievable made them endearing, somehow.
Still, if this one's in your backlog, feel free to skip it forever. For me, it's been coming up on "games to play in Summer"-type lists for years now, so I'm glad I finally got to it.
