This was such an amazing game. It was very cute, very relaxing, but also very riling. The game play was really nice. I thought the fact that Sosuke chose when he wanted to leave was nice. That way it didn’t really feel like an obligation, but that he/you really wanted to explore these places. I use he/you that way, because this game REALLY DOES make you invested in it and like want to go to these different places. See what they’re like. Plus the storyline. Ugh, don’t even get me started. It was so- Cool! That’s the only other way I can put it. I personally, was hoping that Sosuke would decide to stay on the island where he’s happy, but he does need to be with his mother. I feel like I also learned things that he learned with him. He really learned to understand her better and I think that was a really nice idea for it. I genuinely cried at the end, though. Seriously developers. I was in search of a nice game that I wouldn’t get tired of. And that was this. Though it was short, it brightened my day every time!!! So 1) Thank you and 2) Great job. This was perfect in my eyes. <3

Wow... wow is all I can say. “Summer of Memories” was more than just a game. It gave me the privilege of stepping into young Sosuke’s life. I was there while he journeyed through the complexity of family. And I was there while Sosuke learned to understand the bond of family, and experienced how it could become unbreakable. While he found out more about his parent’s past, he managed to uncover more about himself and who he was as well. At the same time he learned how to be a kid, and just enjoy life. Legends, and treasure hunts, ups and downs, late nights, Japanese culture, and long days at the beach... Sosuke and I went through it all. It was incredible seeing the character development every single character had, and the ways they interacted with one another. I can honestly say you become attached. You quickly forget you’re playing a game, because it’s such a cinematic, beautiful story. Please do yourself a favor and get this amazing game. I wish more people knew about it!

This is, not exaggerating, my favorite game in the app store! I would love to be able to play this again in Japanese, both to better appreciate the story and to practice my Japanese. With the overall simple wording, the ability to go back to previous conversations, and the easy pace of the game, this would be perfect for that! But, even though in the app store it says it includes Japanese under the languages, I can't find a way to switch it. Developers, if you happen to see this review, any help? Is there a setting I'm not seeing, or does the app not actually support switching languages?Notwithstanding, this is a wonderful, cute, beautiful, heart-moving story. There are ads, as others have mentioned, but they're really not bad, and I don't see that they take away from the story. The artwork is beautiful as well, and the character designs are supremely cute!

I’ve tried every idle game made by GAGEX and this one is the best by far. There are no glitches and there is an option to opt out of ads completely. All of their games are extremely enjoyable but the ads often times either delay the game, glitch it, or completely prevent the progression of the storyline. Hungry Hearts and the Oden Cart were both playable in my opinion. But in both games the ad bar at the bottom of the screen would often times block the controls to make dishes and do other commands. Granny’s Candy Shop on the other hand was a constant crash and unplayable. Regardless, this game right here is the best out of everything they have produced by far and is the perfect idle game with heart tugging stories that will make you wish you could relive it all again from the very start.
