Since there are eight possible birds and therefore eight different routes, well have a lot to vote on. And youll be given the chance to help our fair narrator out by giving her advice as the various choice points pop up in the game. Im also going to try and do this as a narrative LP to fill out some of the narrators character, though this game tends to do well in speaking for itself, so additions will probably be sparse. He also tended to cut out a lot of the text in order to make room for commentary, while the plan here is to have the full script transcribed, with a few additions here and there. I believe the thread has fallen into the archives at this point. Why yes there was! Epee Em started on this game a while ago, but has dropped the LP in order to return to his true passion of playing and laughing at Mega Man Battle Network. Wasnt there another LP of this being done on the forum? Originally created as an April Fools joke and a parody of typical otome games, the game is well-written and shows a lot of care and effort on the part of Hato Moa, who did all of the art and writing. Hatoful Boyfriend was released for the PC in 2011 by Hato Moa, and is an otome (female-targeted) dating simulation game that features pigeons as the dateable characters instead of humans. Its more commonly referred to as that dating game with the pigeons, and this is a fairly accurate description. Maybe if you are a keen ornithologist or peristerophile (a bird lover) then perhaps you should check this game out as it may appeal to you, as for the public in general I’m not so sure.Hatoful Boyfriend is a name youve probably stumbled across while on the internet. There is no real gameplay to be discussed here with it being a text game and there is no sound, the graphics are simple and not intriguing and the game itself is just strange. I’m not really sure what market this game is going for I suppose as it addresses you as Miss I’d expect the demographic is a younger feminine audience but what satisfaction you can actually derive from this game remains unseen, it’s very slightly educational but what worries me and an issue that should really be explored more is the fact that you are a human who is attracted to birds and not just that you have been allowed to be the only human student at the school, perhaps the sequel should be a game where the protagonist goes to the psychiatrist for this unusual attraction to birds. There is no real interaction in the game other than to click for the next bit of text to appear and making the occasional choice of which class you wish to take that day or which of your bird friends you would like to invite on a date. Hatoful Boyfriend it has to be said is somewhat strange, it is a text based game where you occasionally make decisions, for example as to which class you will take that day, music class will increase your charisma where as gym will increase your vitality.Īt times you will have opportunities to invite different birds on dates and this can shape the future of your story.Īpart from learning a little about different types of doves there is not much to be taken from Hatoful Boyfriend Download, the pictures and text are mostly cartoon backgrounds with a photo of a pigeon or dove placed in front when having a conversation, there is not a lot of multiple choice so at times it can feel like you are reading a book and the repeated play on words of nobirdie or everybirdie while cute at first becomes tedious after it has been said so many times. Some of the birds are fun and friendly some are stuck up and pompous, some are pervy like the school doctor, who is also a pigeon but I just couldn’t find one I was interested in, some of us are just not lucky in love! The idea behind Hatoful Boyfriend is to integrate yourself in the school, make friends and then to start dating some of the pigeons. I’m not one to judge but if you go to a school consisting entirely of birds, because you are a bird lover and I wish I meant that in the ornithology sense of the word but sadly it’s literal. Pigeonations and you are the only human student. Everyone knows how nerve wracking it is to start your first day of school, even more so when your school is St.
