BUG REPORT!

Take on the role of Ichitarou Ichinose, an average, easy-going high schooler with an average life. He doesn’t know what his dreams for the future are. He doesn’t have any exceptional talents.

She's a grasshopper. A big one.

Enjoy this sweet and charming romance story, with a life-or-death decision at the end.

Will they live happily ever after or die without achieving even a fragment of their dreams?

Creature Romances: Kokonoe Kokoro reviews and comments

With all the visual novels available on Steam, in order to stick out sometimes one has to have the most confusing art and premise. Creature Romances: Kokonoe Kokoro fits that bill perfectly. "What the hell is this?" you may ask, as you stare at the lovely art of a literal grasshopper girl. Well! It's exactly what it says on the tin! And no! It actually doesn't factor into the plot, ever.

So what could a story about a grasshopper-girl-next-door-best-friend have to offer? Surprisingly, very, very little.

The plot is the most basic, bland, and forgettable story one could imagine for this scenario. The protagonist (whose name I already forgot because he was that forgettable) is friends with Kokoro, the eponymous character. They've known each other since they were kids. She wants to go to Tokyo University after high school, and the protagonist has no idea what he wants to do. He decides he also wants to go to the same school as her, but the school is prestigious and he has the worst grades. He's constantly described as being really bad at math that I just chose to assume he couldn't even do basic algebra just so I could give myself some amusement, because the story itself wasn't amusing to read in the slightest. There is one choice in the game, but it's obvious which is the correct choice, so it essentially doesn't even matter in a plot that's already really streamlined.

None of the characters have any development or unique trait that would get me invested in them, and the romance between the protagonist and Kokoro follows the typical anime drama format that it just ended up feeling shoehorned in. There are other characters, who are also monsters, and even the protagonist's little sister is a batgirl, yet the protagonist himself is human, and this is frustratingly never explained. Is he the monster? Or is this all part of a fever-fueled dream? Find out...never!

The art is passable, but if it weren't for the art you couldn't even tell the story was about monsters in general. The descriptions never make any direct mentions to monster characteristics, and so if the art were replaced with human characters the story would have progressed the same way. The music is generic and doesn't loop, with the track ending jarringly before starting up again. The UI itself is also godawful, with no coherent design whatsoever. While not much saving would be done with this VN, the fact that the UI looks like it was thrown together in 30 seconds drags down a game that's already of poor quality.

This game is not worth the $3 or the time it takes to beat it (which is literally under 1 hr). Don't be lured in by the premise and go for better VNs on Steam.

This VN is very short. It's worth reading, though. The story is extremely moving and the characters are very interesting and feel quite human.

A magical visual adventure that tells the incredible story of young MC in a world of DEMI's. It makes You think about the meaning of love, and inclusion, very nice. -Dragomir A. k. A/Surikata

This game ends in 30-40 min max. If the story is coherent, although it is still a very basic Shojo, it is terribly unfortunate that, of all the game, there is only one choice to make... The graphics are beautiful, but it does not catch up with the terrible lack of content of this game. A few more choices would actually have allowed this game to be something other than a simple manga reading.

Product received for free dating Simulator with a girl-grasshopper. Creature Romances: Kokonoe Kokoro will try on the skin overgrown ebrane named Ichitarou, the best friend of his childhood-grasshopper Kokonoe. However, in addition to this in the game he still has a best friend, uh, dragon-skeleton, and even younger sister Bat (GENETICS SASATAB), plus in the school where he learns, teaches released in circulation and Kindle nemesis of the series RE. The novella, Short, passes for 30-40 minutes, only one choice at the end, which affects the ending, it is full of stamps and poorly spelled characters, but under the leeches will come, the benefit of the cards and Acachiki. Well and can to whom the thread vkatat superficial reflections on friendship/Love/study-I in the soul not EBU/

So what about this game? Already if you look for a Visual novel with choices Bah... go your way because aside from a choice, for the rest it's pure and hard Visual novel. By having a drinking level in English with Google Trad ' next door it ends in 2H (about) I would say. Regarding history itself it is not bad but replace the heroine with a human and you have a "classic" story. For the graphics (so already from my point of view it might have been better to have several "poses" for the characters (especially for the best friend) because they restrict themselves to 2-3-4 per characters.. me at last) they are pretty beautiful. In short I recommend this game (already because I had it for less than $1 thanks to humble MDR) for people who have 2 hours to kill and who are not reluctant to "simplicity". Amateur of Visual novel with several choices and/or "depth", I repeat: go your way:)
