Review: Summer Session

The game is about you, Julius, a boy that takes a summer course. Along with the studies, you must try to win the hearth of the girls around you: a pretty classmate, a sexy teacher and so on.

I’ve read some comments around the net about the game being sexist and such. I honestly found it full of humour and really don’t understand such comments, unless they come from people that had relationship/sexual problems themselves… ;)

The game plays like a classic “dating sim”. Your goal is to have a date with any of the girl you’ll met. Each one is different and here comes into play another interesting aspect of the game: you have also a sort of simulation part where you must decide what to do during your week. Each activity (Study, Work, Party, Sport, etc) has impact on your various skills. Those skills will be important because every girl has different requirements. Beside that, you’ll also have to pick the right answers in the game dialogues, always fun to read even if you choose the wrong reply!
