My reaction after playing the game was not WTFPOLARBEAR, but just "That's it?". In the end, the birdyness of the heroes comes up as a mere gimmick and HB fails both as a parody of otome dating-sim genre and as a serious VN. Only once in the game a topic of difference in life spans betwixt primates and avians comes up and even that is brushed away with no conclusions in other routes. nothing much changes as everyone makes a point in ignoring that (hell, our pigeons even eat poultry). If you remember that characters are birds, then. I probably should have quit playing this thing after the first route, but my common sense was doing a Švankmajer movie marathon at that moment, thus I finished the whole VN. Of course, the period in game lasts for a year, but we see only a few days out of that and it's hard to make a lasting impression when you don't make the reader to care about the heroes. Protagonist and "heroes" barely get to know each other and the concluding romantic interactions are presented out of that blue as the characters had almost no time to know each other. The routes are dreadfully short and each one can be finished in 20 mins tops, so there is almost no time for sufficient character interactions. Now let's replace all birds with blonde bishounens.Īnyways, if we forget for a moment that all characters are birds (and you even have an option to portray them as humans, when you meet them for the first time), then this is just a normal dating-sim.

Oko San is a completely crazy birdie that is obsessed by sports and especially running. Nageki Fujishiro is a strange bookworm that is always holed up in the library and apparently even lives there. Sakuya also requires for you to engage in the studies of music in order to get his ending. They are of noble birth, but where Sakuya is a stuck up bastard begging for an oven, Yuuya is a lovable chivalrous pervert. I wonder if he wakes up the protagonist every morning by gently cooing by her window.īrothers Sakuya Le Bel Shirogane and Yuuya Sakazaki are next in line. The first of unlucky romantics that will fall into the clutches of our primitive hunter-gatherer is her osananajimi Ryouta Kawari. Let's dissect, then stuff and roast them. Tousaka can choose from seven different boys birds to pursue in her search for romance. If you pour all your energy into studying math, you can get all the endings with the exception of Sakuya's. In addition to usual VN choices available in the story, there are minimal dating-sim characteristics, but they serve almost no purpose. Our protagonist is basically a common VN blank slate character, who serves as a walking plot device to provide us with a "romantic" story. How she got there in the first place is anyone's guess. So, Tousaka is a single human attending an academy built specifically for birds. Well, common sense, I know that you have always wanted to visit that Hitler Barbie museum - this is your chance. Oh, now I get it! You are supposed to give your common sense a well deserved vacation while playing this game. and has mobile phone and other commodities. Her default name is Hiyoko Tousaka (though you can change that) and she is a real cavewoman. Let's focus on our female protagonist first. Nazerine Zarib) intends to do the CD version too.
