What players think
The recurring themes across 147 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
DATE WARP is a visual novel with multiple paths and endings (11 endings, to be exact - 2 endings for each romance path, and a final "true ending" is unlocked once the others have been reached), created by Kanako Games, mostly known for the game LONG LIVE THE QUEEN, but also the creator of "MAGICAL DIARY".
Replayability, good writing, fleshed out story and characters, interesting mystery and inoffensive art.
Full voice acting, and a better artist are two of my personal suggestions on this.
Personally, I wasn't a fan of it; I found it tedious to have to do every single time you make a new choice, but luckily it's not too hard, even for someone who is terrible at puzzles like me.
The art is also pretty small in this as the overlay/ui hud takes away from the art in the game, which is fine - but it doesn't really add to how the images look.

Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
