First of all, if you are looking for a traditional game experience, this is not it. There are no achievements or even HP. This is an experience in a different kind of way. Gaming mechanics are involved but they are a background to the over-arching plot of a coming of age story.

I was personally able to strongly identify with Nina as a young female gamer who once tried to have an online personality. I've flirted with people I didn't know who lived miles and miles away from me. There's a rush of excitement that comes with an online personality that is removed from your normal life. You feel cooler, more outgoing behind the safety of some pixels and a username. Cibele actually brought me back to similar experiences and feelings I had myself. I don't dwell on any of that anymore, but Cibele did a really great job of recreating the atmosphere. The awkwardness of attempting to be forward and making yourself look good for someone else. What if you did meet in real life? When is it okay to cross that line?

At times I did feel that it was hard to keep up with all the chat logs and established character relationships, but they were incorporated in such a way that I could read them at my own pace when I wanted. I did enjoy browsing through Nina's files to piece together her life and the relationships she tried to have. I thought the dialogue was very believable given the situation and the time period of ~long ago~ 2009. All of the interactive chat elements were incorporated smoothly. How you played Valtameri didn't have any major consequences other than progressing the plot. I thought there was a good balance between managing Nina's social life, and focusing on playing Valtameri to drive the plot, much the way Nina played the game to drive her relationship.

If you're feeling nostalgic for your first online romance this is a game for you. Even if you haven't, I still recommend this game for its storytelling and simplicity.

I've been following the development of this game for a while. The art style is awesome and the gameplay is simple and smooth. Even with the newest update, there are still some bugs but I look forward to playing the game more and discovering content I still haven't seen yet.
