When I first heard about A3, it was on a list of "suggested titles for you" list on the Play Store because of Revue Starlight's game (I guess because theatre-themed in nature?) and wasn't sure what to make of it at first. On one hand, there isn't so much "gameplay" but everything else is pretty good! The plot is good, the characters are great, and the English translation is a treat to read. Unfortunately, the English version had its final update back in late October, ceasing activity. For new people curious about this game, I say give it a shot, this is coming from someone who isn't usually into "for girls" games. Maybe check out the anime too! As for me, I'll probably make a JPN account so I can keep playing. Sakuya and Citron deserve all the love in the world 100/10.

4.4I have been playing this game since it was released in english, so. Since a very long time. Honestly, its very enjoyable, though its not perfect. I have to say, if there is a reason I keep coming back to this game, it has to be for the story and the characters. The story is compelling and interesting, and while the first act and such can be a bit boring it quickly ramps up and becomes so incredibly interesting. You want to keep reading because you want to know what happens next. The characters are rather well written as well. At first they sometimes appear as shallow anime tropes and cliches, but soon enough you come to find that they are all more well rounded and three dimensional than you originally gave them credit for. They are also very fun to watch interact, and are guaranteed to make you laugh at least once. Speaking of characters, the director has an actual personality. So many games have bland main characters who are meek and have no opinions, but this game does. She herself is already a pretty interesting and funny character, and makes for a fun watch. She also rejects Masumi's advances which is something I'm glad happens, considering the age difference. Now, in regards to the gameplay. Not gonna lie, its not very entertaining. The most fun is the Earn Cash minigame, but with that one you cant play a lot, as you need to wait a long time in between each play. The main gameplay loop soon becomes repetitive, and it wasn't all that interesting to begin with. Being honest, I usually don't play that much outside of events now that I have the full story unlocked, since there isn't much of a point outside of that. Despite my harsh criticism of the gameplay, I would say the story and characters make up for it in spades. Really, I reccomend playing it for that alone. As a small addition, getting cards and gems is surprisingly easy, which is welcome. I haven't spent a single cent on this app, and yet I have around 15 SSRs and even more SRs. So overall, I would highly reccomend it. At least give it a try. PS: Stan Homare and Winter Troupe.

5.0It's so sad to see this game go. I don't think I will have the heart to ever delete the app. Personally, this game getting shut down is both a blessing and a curse for me. I ended up ignoring it for a while until I learned it wouldn't be reciving updates anymore. Now I'm much more invested in it than I ever was, and will continue my journey with the boys on the jp version. Thank you A3 english for all the happiness you brought to this world and everyone's lives, including mine. You will never be forgotten, and we'll miss you. Thank you for all you've done. Goodbye. [大哭]
