Review huh ? Just a few things out of my head.

Well ...

+A lot of different gals with a varity of personalities ( YES I'm grasping for straws here ... )
+Oh yeah, it's all ages! Meaning you don't have to torture yourself through badly drawn sex scenes and hillarious voice acting ^_^.

-Amateur art
-Only a few lines are voiced at all.
-Dating system is very weak. You call out the girls you are interested in on small dates, resulting in a few lines of text between you and your target. Not really very motivational.
-Durr terrible ending video
-I only finished Alice her route, the idea behind it seemed all right, but the execution was terribly sloppy and childish.
-After every route you have to start the game again, you keep all your base stats ( str/int/etc ) and your pearks but you loose all your progress on your advanced stats, eg. arts, maths, sports etc. Makes the game pretty tedious to replay. Too many bad grades = repeat from the beginning, meaning you have to keep a thight shedule even in your consecutive playthroughs
-There is NO skip function. Seeing how you gotta replay 3 fucking years ingame time over and over, you just get flooded by having to read the same text over and over again.

that seem like some mindless stat-building game alright...

Some people are just gluttons for punishment.  Although, maybe the update fixed some of the problems that everybody had with it.

very smart of them to have people download the patch where they bought the game from instead of posting a link to a updater.

I myself have experience a bug from the below changelog:-

Changelog:
    Fixed a bug where after having met Yui, if you call her up before having
met Naoko, Yui will think you've never met before. Thanks to Aric Ferrell
from the forums for reporting this.
    Fixed a wording bug that can happen during Hiroshi's bee sting event chain.
Thanks to Aric Ferrell from the forums for reporting this.
    Fixed some minor typos. Thanks to Allen Martin for reporting this.
    Fixed a bug where if you do great during the ballroom dancing activity
sequence, the ballroom dancing activity is not removed.
    Fixed a bug in Kiku's Ballroom Dancing event where a wrong value was being 
used when deciding whether Kiku asks for your help.
    Added an alternate dialogue exchange between Kiku and Hiroshi depending on 
when the event takes place.
    Slightly increased progress gain in ballroom dancing activity.
    Increased chances of having an encounter with someone while free-roaming 
during the weekends.
    Increased chance of having a date request accepted if Player has a high 
popularity score.
    Slightly lowered the thresholds necessary to obtaining A and A+ grades.
    A+ grades will please Satsuko more at later cycles.
    Satsuko is now a bit more lenient with your grades and will wait a bit longer
for better grades before ending the cycle and sending you back.
    Asking Satsuko for advice on your grades will now generate a more accurate report 
on your standings.
    Fixed a bug in Alice amusement park date in which a dialogue exchange was not
being skipped properly. Thanks to mizu from the forums for reporting this.
    Stat check in Wisdom Tooth random event have been lowered.

I think... the 'all ages' thing must have been one of the reason...

... I doubt anyone who has had experience with a quality Sim-VN would want to replay this thing (I said 'replay', it doesnt mean they wouldnt give it a shot or a benefit of a doubt).

... And naturally, to get above mentioned 'experience' you need to play other Sim-VN games which;
1) are not hosted on some flash gaming website.
2) not made out of flash
3) have at least more than 7 hours of game time per route due to a solid story.

naturally, such Sim-VN games majority contains ecchi. Sadly, that's how the VN market works right now...

.. Thus, NOT all ages...
Therefor; to those that are used to the 'simple' type of Sim-VN... This game, is perhaps one of the best VN they have ever ever played... ...

THEY NEED TO BE SHOWN THE LIGHT MY BROTHERS!
