Please add options for rewind, skip & history when reading a story. These are must. I can't often remember what I read a while ago. If I accidentally touch the screen & the lines pass by before I get to read them, it becomes more troublesome. I have to start again with a new ticket & tap away to get to that scene. Please stop requiring a new ticket for restarting a chapter when there's no history & rewind options. Otherwise I'm loving this app and its stories. They're awesome!!
I'm upset I lost everything I paid for on the old apps. However, I like the new platform a lot. They focus on the story. There is no avatar or point system. I can enjoy the story, not worrying about choosing the "right" choice. 1 pass is like 5 on the old app and they are refilled on a timer rather than once per day. And for anyone wondering about the extra scenarios and branch endings, they are still there. You need Honeystones for extras which can be earned (VERY slowly) or bought for real $.
I'm addicted to Decoding Desire and would love it to be an anime/manga/drama. I agree with others that it's frustrating it's so expensive (20 stones) to choose options but you can only earn a few a day. I don't like the in-app micro purchases structure so never do it, but I would consider giving a one off payment if it gave me access to all the books in a series to play and replay scenarios. I think they would sell a lot with that structure.
The scenes and endings are too expensive. Especially for what parameters you're already working with. 1 ticket every 3-4hrs. Not enough free content. Some of the stories are cliche, but that's fine. The translation and spelling errors can get bad, though. None of this matters as much, if there wasn't such a wait time or such an expensive cost in stones for the scenes or endings (especially when many don't even really tell you much about what's in them).
The game is really generous by giving out 100 diamonds when you first begin, and I'm really thankful for that. Each chapter is really long, and while I am grateful, it's hard for me to make enough time to read one chapter. One of my main issues with the game is that there's no log or auto system. Sometimes, I accidentally tap too fast, and I miss out on some of the dialogue. Also, I wish some of the character sprites were more expressive and that most of the protagonists weren't that weak.
Compared to many other choice games, this one is by far the most well-developed. It really does buildup the relationship between the two characters and the options are relatable; the pacing is also perfect. Though the wait time for each ticket is quite long, which is the only thing I would fix, this app definitely won't disappoint.
It's a REALLY GREAT GAME. But when I play it. How do I described it. It doesn't show the anime. EVER. I turn on then off didn't work and I reset my phone didn't work. I even unstalled it and then Installed it please find a solution to my problem because it really is a great game. And just after writing this i went on the app and it said there was a bug and that I should reset the app or talk to you (the creators of honey magazine). Thank you for fixing the issue.
The game is nice and, if you don't mind waiting, you can play for free. I think replenishing the tickets are a little slow, but since I have a busy schedule, I cannot play too often. I currently am having a problem because the game is frozen. If it does not correct itself soon, I will uninstall......Update - the OKKO team was very quick to respond and corrected the issue. Thank you very much! I am still playing the game and have gotten through several different stories.
I have to wait a few hours(3-4) for one ticket but it was all good, the scenes were worth it, and romantic..but of course it has lewd stuff, but that'll be in the (almost ending) parts, and it has unique stories, different from other apps, most of all I enjoy the fact you can continue stories, so I don't have to restart, although there are some problems and errors but who cares, It's worth it in the end, I mean some stories even made me cry, X3
Three issues with this app... 1). Cannot install to SD card, this is a big issue to those that have limited space in their internal memory. 2) The print is way too small on your magazine pages. 3) I cannot actually read any stories as the app shuts down instantly when I hit the read button. I really hope you fix these issues as I have enjoyed many of your otome previously, but for now I'm uninstalling.
The best! The stories are intersting, the art is stunning, and its completely free! Sure, there's the occasional typo, but nothing you can't easily understand. The ticket regen time has gotten so much better; where it was 1 ticket every 6 hours with a max of 2 tickets, now its 1 ticket every 4 hours with a max of 3 tickets. The only thing I'd like to suggest is adding a section for all the art and extra scenarios bought with honey stones, so it's all in one place. But other than that, 10/10!!!!!
Well, at first I was troubled with this app. I wanna start Decoding Desire again and I was totally confused at first. But the second time I installed Honey Magazine, I'm really satisfied. And I think the graphic cgs are more beautiful than the old ones (when all the games were separated). I dont mind waiting for the scenario tickets but I wish that OKKO could add more interesting stories and characters :)
FAVORITE OTOME GAME OF ALL TIME!! They were cool stories and well developed characters consistently! Not to mention the storylines which are so well thought through. They just shortened the ticket time and I could not be more happy with it. I normally don't write reviews but this game was too amazing to not write one. Although the tickets take a while it's completely with it. (Some bugs to deal with but you should stick it out)
This is the best love story game so far. **[[You don't have to wait forever to read the next chapters, you don't have to pay real money. And getting diamond is easy too. Just make sure not to choose the diamond option every single time]]**. I really really love this game. There are a lot of stories you can play at the same time. The art and storyline is just *chef's kiss* 👨🍳💋 lol .
I like this way of reading, clicking options that still get you to the end without struggle to get the right choice and spend another few weeks replaying the game. I wish it was easier to get more Honey stones because it costs more Honey stones to read special scenarios or choose a different answer with a scenario, than how many chapters it takes to actually accumulate them. Overall, good! Add new storylines please!
I don't know if this happened to anyone else but for some reason my scenario tickets are not being restored - like not at all. I genuinely enjoy the stories of this app so it's extremely disappointing that even after contacting the developers so many times, they still have not fixed this issue. I've uninstalled and reinstalled it several times but to no avail.
The App is good really. I enjoyed it, and I would have rate it 5 star but I dont like how the scenario key is slow to generate. And it was fine if it is slow refreshed but it only loads 3. It will be good if at least give us 5 scenario key. Its really enjoyable if you do. Because the story so good. Thank you for your hard work.
It's a really good game. It's got loads of cool stories in it, etc. The things that could be changed are the '2 scenario tickets max', and the Honey Stones. The 2 scenario tickets maximum makes it petty if you haven't been able to go on the game for a while. It's underwhelming if you've only got two, after not playing it in forever. The Honey Stones are a strange situation as well cos you're not able to get many Extra Scenarios. You have no choice but to pay for the HS, cos you only get 1 per Ch.
The application is pretty good as I have found some story's I didn't know about but... It's difficult to get gems as I can't purchase any and there's only two tickets so when I've used them up it takes forever to be able to read the next part. Quite honestly it feels as if I wait longer than I did when all the games were separate.
I honestly love this app, it's AMAZING! The only problem is that I end up losing tickets due to the app just randomly closing while a chapter is loading. At first I thought it was just a bug that would be fixed in the next update, yet it still happened even after I updated. Please fix this and I will bump it up to Five Stars, because honestly I really do love this app.
Little disappointed with the app. I thought it had been targeted advertised at me due to my sexuality but unfortunately it looks like it is for ladys only. It would be a simple fix, be able to change your gender in settings and a few parts of the scripts changed and some slightly different art would make this game a little more inclusive. But for now it looks good for the girls out there.
This app is almost perfect. The plots are good and the graphics are pretty good looking. The only problem is recently it keeps on telling me 'connection timeout' , 'a bug has occured'. I would have given this a 5 star. I really hope the problem will be fixed as soon as possible. This is my favorite app so far.
I am enjoying my experience soo far w/ this game. However, with the recent maintenance there is an issue that occured with Midori Sakurai's book. It is free access right now but no matter how many time I refresh or restart chapter it is still showing that a bug has occured. I have contacted support multiple times but it's still not fixed. Please fix this🤧!
I really like the app! It's nice to have all the stories in one place and I like that I don't have to bother with missions. The new ticket system is great! Although 2 seems low, they are twice as long and thus we get an equivalent of 10. My only suggestion is for the gems. I am fine with acquiring them slowly, but instead of 1, could we maybe get 5 per chapter? I feel this would still leave initiative for people to buy them, but not make free players miss out on all of the premium choices.
