Go with Navel's. I tried to trap games by ensemble and they were anything but good. Well, granted, you can have some kinda fun with them, but it's going to be limited.

What if you let a bunch of people without any idea of how to write a trap protag game be in charge of such a game, while they give zero fucks and just want to get things over with? You get this great game by Ensemble.

The only actually positive thing I can say is: The art is nice. But. Even here you have an issue. The guy who made the production gave zero fucks and zooms in all the time. So have fun with blurry.

In a way you can still have your fun with it though. The character's aren't bad. So once you get on the trash level, the zero fucks you feel everywhere can become entertaining. At least for a bit. Common is short and the routes aren't too long either. The transition is zero fucks tier. You get from "girl has talked 10 lines within 2 hours and protag doesn't really know nor interact with her" to "doki doki" from protag within 2 minutes.

And apart of that, plenty of the developments feel so out there, that you can't help but wonder how anyone could even get those ideas. I sure couldn't. I guess this is what happens if you write a story backwards? Go from the end and give zero fucks about how to get there, as long as you get there? No idea. But I'm still amazed about the idea of a boys school the protag has to attend for reasons like once a week with excuses. And still gets cast into the student council there, because you obviously gotta do that to the guy only being there once a week at most and supposedly just has to work his ass off.
Of course one of the writers had the glorious idea to use the boys school to just let the protag get close to one of the heroines as a guy. I mean, this is a trap game, but who cares, right?
And your obligatory genki/mischievous girl being absolutely not genki and mischievous most of her route is also nicely in this game. Not like you see much of her in common. 10 lines maybe. The one girl you get to see the most, the sister, has no route. Unless you get yourself some standalone "route" of hers, called a "patch". Yep, a patch that's not even patching the game.


It's amazing how Ensemble managed to stay alive till this day. Truly amazing.
