The hilarious dialogue and the nostalgia is so heavily reminiscent of the Newgrounds classic Frank's Adventure, that it overcomes the simplicity of the gameplay. I'm looking forward to the next one! Thank you for the game!

If you like management sims, chickens, and cute stuff, then play it. You won't regret it until you should've had dinner an hour ago but you're so busy with your third barn you're like damn I need a watering area now... my brown chook thirsteh
5 cheeky chooks chookin' around and bein cheeky out of 5

Who are they, why are they, what do they do for work, why only grapes and apples, or is that what was just available at the time. why are the flies there? what is the npc thinking when they're [redacted]. what language is that. why can't you also eat the eyes? what are they on, and is that why they're so calm?

"Wow" is the only word that keeps popping up in my mind. I'm SO glad I played this, and I cannot believe it is a new release--it plays like a game that's been out for a long while! Such a lucky, random download.
A summary of pros:
- An immersive and believably surreal world
- An engaging story that hooks you, and makes you ask questions
- FANTASTIC pixel art with mood-inducing color schemes
- Unique characters with chilling and inquisitive designs
- Effective and tactful creep factors that gradually build as more dialogue and interactions occur
- Interesting, engaging dialogue with NPCs
- Follow-up interactions with NPCs
- Clever interactions and tool implementation
- Multiple Endings!
A summary of cons:
- Very few grammar-related mistakes that may pull you out of immersion
No-spoiler review:
Overall, I definitely recommend playing this game! It was so unexpectedly good--I turned the game back on with the hope that there was more, I actually found content I skipped in haste to get to the end. I wish there was more to discover and I certainly hope there's some kind of sequel, or successor to it. If you like spooky games that make you psychologically question what's happening in them, definitely play it. You won't regret it.
Mild Spoilers describing the world and creep factors:
It's weird and creepy in all the right places and in all the right ways. It's not...executed in a corny or unbelievable manner; The world is built in a way that invites the player's question and begs investigation.
It's not TOO scary, which is fine (I personally prefer games that don't use outright horror)--but it definitely does a great job of gradually building a knot in your stomach, from the moment you've delivered your first medication to the very--somehow believable--moment you're speaking to a penis that's become sentient, and you end up wondering, "Oh my god, am I [the character you're playing as] freaking out now? Am I [the character you're playing as] delusional?" It makes you think, or wonder, whether you, as the main character, are going through and experiencing the same psychosis the NPCs you've been so concerned about have been describing to you.
5 dick chases out of 5, would chase the dick again, will definitely be following the devs for more dick chasing
This is a REALLY cute VN that's worth a shot! Here's a review, if you want a TLDR to just see whether you should play it or not, you can skip to the last paragraph.
I was surprised--some VNs I opt into downloading might have art that seems inappropriate for the setting they're trying to convey, but the art style for Demon Kiss was very appropriate in each scene. Their models and portraits are fantastic, and the backgrounds are immersive and does the story good. The story is fun and realistically written--it's not too corny and while there are very few grammar or spelling issues, it's not a story that's so seriously told that it would pull you out of having a good time while playing it.
Story review with light spoilers
The story itself is actually good--I guessed the plot twist, but that added to the excitement for me. There were some parts, especially alongside the time skips, that felt rushed or poorly paced regarding their romance. I'm torn between the romance being too quick, or if I just wanted more--but that goes to show that it WAS still good, I just felt left for wanting regarding the more romantic, or why/how they came to feel for one another.
I LOVED that the main character didn't have any kind of struggle or hesitance regarding his sexuality! That was one of my favorite bits--it's EXTREMELY rare for a VN to not have a "but we're both m-men" moment, and that alone is enough for me to totally forgive and forget the pacing of it. We love to see a gay protag officially reveal himself to his prospective hellbound boyfriend, so that's a big kudos to the writer.
I loved the 'lore and the world created, I feel like there could very easily be spin-offs, other stories in the same world, as well as other games. It's a really cool representation of hell, class ranking, as well as magic limitations. Very well done.
