Disregard the naughty stuff, best match 3 game here

The game is ABSOLUTELY extremely sexist, based on stereotypes. But it is not unpleasant - it is given in a fun and enjoyable form, the stereotypes are so exaggerated that no one can take them seriously and get offended about them, you know they are jokes. The visuals - well, whatever you like. I don't like the manga, but I understand that someone might like it. The game features girls (supposedly) white, (supposedly) yellow, (supposedly) black. In real life they can all be gorgeous and each has unique features of colour, physique, facial features. In the game, they are indistinguishable from each other. They are all identical, only the names distinguish them. Three teams clearly worked on the graphics. One drew the faces in an anime style (inhuman, unsightly proportions, 2D), another drew the bodies (natural but with inhumanly exaggerated female features, 3D), another did the backgrounds. The three elements don't fit together. It looks as if clumsy drawings of faces have been pasted over the pictures of bodies. The proportions, the colours, the impression of spatiality don't match. It gets in the way, but the game is still enjoyable and fun. You just have to play as a woman, otherwise the final images in the series are hideous from a male point of view for some physiological reasons. The only thing that really puts the game off is one of the characters - Momo. The others can be liked or disliked, but are within the norm (including the goddesses and aliens). Momo is a child. Personally, I'm not very tolerant of paedophilia. Anime and manga generally represent such a direction (exaggerated childlike features in faces - small mouths, noses, big eyes), but this is too much: Momo makes it clear that she is a child - a "kitten" - in this situation, you have to be a bit of a strange person to feel pleasure in dating, sex and suggested BDSM elements with someone like this. Apart from this, the game is really likeable, fun and worth every dollar of its price.

I have it on steam and it was a pretty good game, loved the idea of how to win affection. But what really made me right this review is the fact that it is "69%" off.... Yeah... 69.... Percent.... Off.... Really GOG?
