Story - The narrative lumbers along like a drunk pigeon—stumbling from one lackluster interaction to another. The premise sets the stage for a thrilling romance among the dazzling city lights, yet the execution feels more like a series of awkward encounters with characters that fall flat. The main character (MC) comes off less like a potential romantic lead and more like a cardboard cutout yearning to experience. - 26%
Visual - Now let’s talk visuals. The art style has its charm, boasting some decent graphics that pop against the city backdrop. Character design showcases some appealing designs, but it often feels like they were plucked straight out of a generic dating simulator. Unfortunately, the animations are stilted at best, leading to a disconnect during intimate moments. - 61%
Engagement - When it comes to engagement, **City Lights Love Bites** stumbles around like a lost tourist in a foreign city.

At a point in the game Sci Fi happens and you are in the present. You are unconscious, the LI’s make Simulants of you and fuck them while trying to figure out how to save you. They are copies and not the player. So you are being cucked by yourself with zero say so from, well yourself. It’s highly convoluted. It could been some really bad mistranslations considering the Dev is from China. In fact a quick look at their Itch states there will only be Netori. To me the Simulants are Netorare though. Shit they even call the one Stimulant deviant MC NAME inferring it’s entirely different from the main MC.
Bro get a doctor
the animations in the preview are soooo mechanical, that it is already a big turnoff for me 🙁
