Jamie Last (changeable name) has spent the last couple weeks on a summertime high. At eight-years-old, nothing is better than what feels like endless days of school-less adventures, especially when you live walking distance from the beach. While coming home under a scorching sunset one fine evening, Jamie is approached by a stranger. The man is looking for a kid who can do him a favor, and he’s even offering to pay for it. He wants Jamie to please be friends with his only child. The person is Mr. Holden, Jamie’s new neighbor, as well as the father of the odd, and oddly named boy, Cove. Whether Jamie wants to play along or not, Cove isn’t going anywhere. He’s present in Jamie’s life for far longer than they ever would’ve guessed.
And then the long days of vacation finally come to an end. Summer may not be able to last forever, but Jamie can take comfort in knowing it will come back again someday…

Simply beautiful
Personally I used as little "customization" as possible bc it feels wrong to me to "customize" a love interest. i want them to be a real person.
for me, these ended in one of the most beautiful love stories of my year thus far. but i completely understand if my approach may not be as enjoyable to others.
overall, i can deeply recommend this game.

Die Story, Charaktere und Grafik sind einfach nur süß.
Alles ist so nachvollziehbar und gut geschrieben, dass ich einfach nicht aufhören kann die Story neu und anders zu spielen,
Ich liebe jeden einzelnen Charakter, selbst die, die als "negative" Person in manch einer Szene fungieren.
Von Kindheit bis erwachsenen Alter fühlt man einfach mit den Charakteren mit und versinkt förmlich in der Geschichte.
Es zerreißt mir immer das Herz, wenn ich Cove (vor allem wegen den Errungenschaften) sein süßes Herz brechen muss und gemein oder kühl zu ihm bin.

Ich habe es geliebt. Jede Minute saß ich hier, lachend, weinend, bewegt. Sehr gut geschrieben, wunderbar realistische Charaktere. Absolut zu empfehlen.

Das Spiel ist sehr schön gestaltet und bringt auch einiges an Entscheidungsmöglichkeiten mit sich. Die Geschichte selbst fand ich auch sehr gut. Leider ist der vierte Schritt, oder die vierte Phase, wie man sie auch nennen mag, sehr kurz geraten. Teils verständlich, weil es gegen Ende geht, aber teils hätte man auch noch ein bisschen mehr machen können.
Man kann das ganze Spiel gratis durchspielen, jedoch geben die DLCs dem Spiel einiges mehr an Inhalt. Eines möchte ich aber bemängeln und zwar, dass ich während meines ganzen Durchlaufs meinen Avatar(den kann man selbst anpassen) nie gesehen habe, ausser dann, wo ich ihn nach jedem Schritt nochmals anpassen konnte. Das Spiel selbst erwähnt, dass man ihn bei speziellen Sequenzen zu Gesicht bekommen kann, jedoch war das bei mir nicht der Fall.

This game really made my emotions whirl. I loved every second of it, and I'm gonna play again and again. The characters have great personalities and have really grown on me. I also love how much you can decide on your own and how much you can customize each playthrough. I'm definitely buying the dlcs
