What players say

Surpringly fresh take on match-3! I think I wanted much more from the overall plot and character interactions, but I did love the little bits that I got and I hope the devs keep up the good work!

Genuinely just an adorable game. Conjures up a beautiful ideal world where you can visit your friends all day, flirt with them all, and fix every problem. The gorgeous art style lends itself so perfectly to the stunning character designs. The main mechanic stays fun while not being too challenging, and I think lofi is the perfect music genre for that. Honestly, I'd forget it was a match-3 game between the story...
