Currently replaying the game (last time I played was summer 2020, public demo).
I advise people that are used to this type of gameplay like in PuzzleQuest to play on Extreme difficulty as it poses little to no resistance with good enough play (assuming you know what you're doing) and makes it more challenging and fun (also Extreme is considered the base difficulty lol). I jumped on it right as I started the game and managed to never fail a major boss except Lambert (RNG fest with my build), note that most dungeons will make you game over a couple of times but you have checkpoints to help and the game won't throw you far back. Playing on higher difficulties does not bring anything new to the game, so don't hesitate to play it more casually. If you want info on my way of playing, I can give some tips.
I'm currently exploring as far as I can in the
dating mechanics, and it's pretty hard to know if you're doing the right thing in order to unlock everything (assuming you're not using the cheat codes that comes with the patreon version

). I'll eventually
post my notes on every best choice to make for characters (to save a lot of time on it); but unlocking the scenes is weidly hard for some reason (the game gives ZERO indications on where to get them). I'm still trying to get all available scenes, and I will indicate how to get them also (if I understand what the games want from the player). Looking through the code is a last resort tactic, and it would be sad if I had to do it to get them.
After reading everything the current version (at the time i'm writing this) has in the main story, I'd say they did a good job of making the story more lively (it's still not a VN, so the text is still thin for VN lovers) and gets interesting from chapter 3 and onwards. Reading through it does need to play the game, but easy difficulties will make you cruise through the dungeons/battles so you won't be kept waiting to see more. I'll write a review after i'm done with everything the game can offer.
NB : The

exists but severely lacks info on the romance routes btw
TL;DR I'd advise to play through the game and not cheat/datamine through it as they made it quite fun to read, yet the dating mechanics are not well explained nor easy to get through without trial and error, so I will post my notes about everything you can see.
btw if you just want porn, go ham on the files/cheats
