I bought this game because of the positive reviews. But it seems that ratings don't mean anything anymore or everyone got the game for free anyway.

Meh. This is the same picture/text click through game with zero animation. The storyline could have been a lot better and well, I just didn't find the walls of text interesting enough and missing animation just made this boring. Save your money, find something like Being a DIK which is 1000x better.
It was OK. Wait for the price to drop below $6 then buy. I do hope to see a DLC or season 2 for this. Good story line.

Welcome to Branchfield, a place where the improbable becomes reality.
You will play as a young man who has just enrolled in Branchfield University. There you will discover a large cast of characters amid this seemingly normal town. Who you decide to get to know and how you choose to interact with them will shape the story in an ever-unfolding narrative. Each branch will lead to a new possibility for love - or danger. This visual novel is sexy, funny, exciting and sometimes even deadly. It contains mature themes and situations throughout while never sacrificing story.
In this game, there are 16 women that you can become romantically involved with. They all have their own unique personalities and will respond differently to the choices you make. Are you interested in getting to know the flirtatious Emma or the more shy and reserved Madison? Will you find yourself in the office of the assistant dean Caroline, or butting heads with the college's diva, Jules? Each character's route is shaped by your choices and even influence each other's based on your relationships.
