Editor's Rating
Story - The narrative in **Sicae** is a wild ride. Starting as a slice-of-life drama, it oddly sprints into the deep end of action and shonen tropes, laced with a sprinkle of gore. Players are introduced to a protagonist grappling with personal tragedy, which, at times, feels like a missed opportunity for emotional depth. The humor shines through the absurdity, keeping the experience interesting. - 77%
Visual - Visually, **Sicae** is quite a treat! The character designs are vibrant, capturing that quintessential anime flair. The girls, while perhaps leaning towards a certain physical archetype, are well-rendered and animated. The environments? Pretty solid! Though there's room for more diversity in character designs, especially regarding body types, the overall aesthetic serves the story well enough. - 80%
Engagement - If you’re looking for a quick thrill, Sicae might not be the quickest route. The pacing can feel sluggish, especially considering the slow burn it takes before heating things up. While the dialogue and interactions pull you in, some players might find frustrations with the slow revelation of significant adult content—only nine scenes to speak of, with many being relatively tame. - 71%
Core Loop - The core loop of **Sicae** intertwines narrative exploration with relationship management, which is a classic formula for AVNs. You’ll find yourself juggling interactions, gaining insight into the lives of various characters as you dive deeper into the plot. However, it can be disappointing how infrequently you hit those steamy scenes players often seek in this genre. - 64%
