Time for Jisoo, the roguish black cat with a heart of what may or may not be gold.

I am taking a break from the game here because this path was setting off my "this will trigger you" alarm, so I looked up a summary, and it turns out the plot hits multiple other unrelated triggers/squicks. Since this is the last guy before the secret ending (which will probably also be triggery) I'm just going to put Dandelion aside for now and see if I feel like picking it up again later.

Other than that Jisoo was actually starting to charm me! But emotional reactions are messy and I gotta look after my brain.

Content notes: relationship violence, consent issues, disability, little sister issues, also the same abusive parent stuff as always

Time for Jiyeon, the cute, affectionate little kitten! Wait, sorry, the adult man pretending to be a cute, affectionate little kitten.

Still deciding how I feel about this one, but it was certainly something.

Content notes: rape threats, and...idk? I just have this weird feeling about some stuff?

Dandelion: Wishes Brought to You is a dating sim about a depressed, lonely young woman who encounters five mysterious animals and gets to know them as pets...only for them to become human!

This is the first game made by Cheritz (Nameless, Mystic Messenger) and is a bit rough around the edges but still overall very enjoyable. The protagonist is a realistically drawn college student with anxiety caused by an abusive mother, and her arc of self discovery and healing is really well done. There's a lot of stats raising, which is sometimes cleverly integrated with the story and sometimes irritating. The love interests are varied and interesting as characters, and the romances vary from "good" to "I respect what they were going for but it didn't quite work for me". It's not full on furry but it probably helps if you think catboys and rabbitboys are cute ;)
