Available on: (iOS  & Android)

Rating: 4/5

4/5

My Love For You Is Evermore is a rare gem within otome mobile games as it’s pay to play whoo!  With 5 unique Love Interests (LI) to encounter each with their own delightful and deep stories to explore. 

Similar to some Voltage inc games within their Love 365 app, it offers otome gamers a chance to get stuck in with the game with a one-time purchase and after that only Wi-Fi is required to play the game whenever you want. No gacha elements or ticket system, allowing readers to get right into the story!

Features

The MC works in a PR company with her amusing co-workers in this office-based romance. The character design is cute and I like the font used for the dialogue. Background images are simple but contrast well against the characters appearing in the foreground.

Background Music is nice and upbeat throughout the game. I was pleasantly surprised by the voiced video chat with characters, it adds a great touch to the otome game.

There’s also an auto-save feature which is great as my battery died while playing and I didn’t save where I was, but luckily I recovered my gameplay through the auto-save function phew! 😄

Main Characters

Hiro is voiced by Joe Zieja who also voiced Gavin (my fav) from MLQC.
Hiro is MC’s ex who she has known since childhood. They reunite at her company and work together on a project to help him with his career.

In the process of spending more time together their buried feelings resurfaces. I liked the story and how Hiro has loved her all along. They both are considerate of each other by trying to do what’s best for the other but it ends up not being the best solution as the other person is left hurt by miscommunication and misunderstanding. Despite this, the story wraps up nicely when they decide to tackle problems together. 

She really has a big effect on his career and it’s nice to see her support him while making progress on her dream to be a publicist. It was a cute reunion romance with good character development for both of them. Rating 7/10

Hiro's Route Rating 7/10

Daichi

Daichi is our Tsundere in the game. He is the cool, mysterious Head of the Accounting department and MC’s senior colleague for a project they get assigned to. While working together they start to develop feelings and we get to find out more about Daichi’s mysterious personal life. He doesn’t like cats but it’s cute how he warms up to MC’s pet cat, Maple. 

They don’t have a good impression of each other at first. For example, Daichi never gets tired of reminding her how she spilt coffee on him twice when they first met, which was comical.

There’s a good dynamic between them, I liked how he opened MC’s eyes to his leadership style to provide constructive criticism in order to help support his team grow. Also, she helped him emotionally, to be more honest about his feelings with regard to his personal matters when it comes to the people he loves. I’d rate Daichi 6/10

Daichi's Route Rating 6/10

Minoru

Minoru’s route was a rollercoaster with pretty heavy plot twists I did not expect. Despite the heavy drama, there are some cute moments in the beginning. The banter between MC and Minoru is funny as they are like frenemies that joined the department around the same time 3 years ago.

We learn more about him like how he has a pet mouse called Mino the Mouse. The story takes a turn and gets darker as we find out more about his past and why he keeps his distance when it comes to love.

He doesn’t understand what love is until he meets MC. But he believes he doesn’t deserve her love due to his complicated and sad past. I really enjoyed the VA who portrayed Minoru’s character it was very well done. I liked Minoru’s various expressions too.

The concept of the story wasn’t to my taste however, the unpredictability factor made it memorable. The ending felt a bit rushed as it’s such a complex plot. I would have liked to see the bad character in this story pay for their crimes. It probably felt rushed due to the limit of keeping to 13 chapters but it was still a good ending. 

Minoru's Route Rating 4.5/10

Kyosuke

Kyosuke is one of my favourite characters in Evermore. He’s a laid-back and motivating boss. He’s veeerrrry kind, and I mean going above and beyond the selfless type of Kind. He also has a positive attitude as a manager.

This felt like a mature healthy adult route compared to the others as Kyosuke is a gentleman and is transparent about his feelings and MC is reliable and supportive. Their relationship as teammates is based on trust and respect.

I really enjoyed this story the most out of all the character stories as Kyosuke is a gentleman and it’s great to see how he supports her at work and how MC has his back too along with his best friend Daichi. The VA did a really good job too! Overall I’d rate it 8.5/10

Kyosuke's Route Rating 8.5/10

Manager

Evermore Manager

Hiro’s manager also has a route, but is not available with the bundle package sale so have not played his route yet. He is very enigmatic and would love to see the man behind the mask. The fact that he likes anime is a bonus. 

Conclusion

I really enjoyed playing Evermore and loved how it’s a pay-to-play game without any gacha or ticket wait times so I can play a character story in one sitting without waiting to unlock the story. Besides Voltage inc games a lot of pay-to-play mobile otome games have become obsolete and phased out but it makes me happy to see there are little gems like Evermore available on a mobile platform for otome gamers. 

The Art, BGM, VA and Characters were all overall amazing, well done to the Lovely inc team for creating a fantastic mobile otome game 🙂

Play or pass?

I would definitely recommend Evermore as it has a flovur of everything based on which route you chose, e.g. Minrou for dark drama, Hiro for childhood love, Daichi for enemies to lovers, and Kyosuke for the gentlemanly boss who’s a sweet cinnamon roll.
