I see a lot of reviews on here giving this game a hard time and I have absolutely no clue why. You see what you get with this game, and I think you get quite a lot. HuniePop is an amazingly fun, atmospheric, beautiful, relaxing, and well designed puzzle dating simulator. The dating elements of the game are quite light, and they're designed mostly for the player's all around enjoyment. You can do what you want; whether that be dating as many girls as you want, or sleeping with as many girls as you want. There remains no chance of repercussion, and the girl's interactions with each other remain entirely separate. The dating aspect of the game involves a simple system of questioning and answering, revolving around food and drink meters which allow the player to: talk to the girls, and earn more in game currency by getting them drunk first. The questions are simple in nature, and, depending on the character(Audrey for instance), are extremely funny. By answering questions correctly and learning more about the girls, you can unlock in game points which allow you to upgrade your character, in turn making the puzzle aspect of the game more enjoyable. The game's puzzles are extremely enjoyable, and, depending on the location, have beautiful views and music. They remain challenging, without detracting from the overall enjoyment due to difficulty. One criticism I could see being leveled is that the puzzles are the only way to progress the game (completing the 'dates' allows the player to earn hearts, which, once a certain amount are achieved, allows the player to sleep with a character). To deal with this, the game implements unique gift items that you can use during the puzzle to cause some kind of effect. The gift is earned by giving a present to one of the girls, and the effect that gift has on the puzzle varies greatly. The trick pays off, and the gift system, along with the fact that each girl has a unique type of tile preference, keeps the game fresh and wonderful easily through one or two playthroughs. One thing I can't praise the game enough for is the absolutely gorgeous art style it utilizes. The environments are lovely, the girls are lovely (and have a slew of cute outfits and hairstyles), and the H pictures are beautiful to look at. Each girl is a hilarious cliché, and they, in large part due to the amazing voice acting, have wonderful personality and life imbued into them. I really can't praise this game enough, especially when you consider the price point, it's simply a steal, no other way to put it. Some other quick things I really loved about the game: the text message system through which the girls send you lewd pictures and cute texts, the voice acting (as previously mentioned), and its overall design. Like I said, you see what you get with this game, and I truly think it's worth your time and money. Thanks for reading!
