About This Game "Feed me, or I'll reap your soul!"And with those ridiculous words, my whole life was turned upside down.Sakuraba Rie, aged nine, is a cynical and grumpy girl who cares little for her fellow classmates, and does not have a single friend.That is, until a self-proclaimed demon from the deepest, darkest pits of Hell suddenly appears in Rie's kitchen and steals a tray of cookies.What will happen between these two young girls? Will friendship blossom between them, or perhaps something more?That is up to the reader to decide - but rest assured, no matter what, there will lots and lots of delicious food!From Ebi-Hime, creator of "Asphyxia" and "The Way We ALL GO" comes "Strawberry Vinegar" a slice-of-life story with food, cute demons, yuri, and more food. 6d5b4406ea Title: Strawberry VinegarGenre: Adventure, Casual, IndieDeveloper:ebi-himePublisher:ebi-himeRelease Date: 5 Jan, 2016 Strawberry Vinegar Free Download [Ativador] The golden combi of Ebi-Hime and SillySelly did it again.This time is a wonderful and adorable tale about a young demon daily and a little cynical girl meeting and building a relationship (being friendhip or a lovely romance), lots of delicious food and the weirdly in love couple of the complete opposites parents of the girl.Rie is content with her life. Yeah, she maybe is a loner, but she prefer it that way. And yes, she's maybe a bit cynical, but she's happy that way.That's it until a little Demon Girl arrives at her kitchen, eats her just baked cookies and threaths her to reap her soul.Unless she feed it with delicious food!For a week, Licia, the Little Demon lives with Rie and her parents. Slowly they became close and if you play you cards right a beautiful friendship can blossom. Or even maybe the sweetests love!!And of course, we gonna see the most delicious food, after all, we don't want our souls reaped, right?I must confess that after getting killed in a bad end (I kinda deserved, even if was a bit of a disproportionate retribution, for being a jerk!) and seeing that the yuri was advertised as small, light and so I stopped playing and forgot about the game.But Hanako (Hella Yuri curator), tell me recently that Strawberry Vinegar was rewarding in regards to yuri. So I gave it another try...And it delivered in a wonderful way. I got the romance ending in my first try and was wonderful. The building with Rie doubts and cold facade cracking was amazing. (And the yuri fangirl noticing was so funny and cute, Mayuri, you're top tier Sis!).And the ending. Was VERY rewarding!! I can't thank enough Ebi-Hime and SIllySelly for making it and Hanako for pushing me a bit to finish it.Was ADORABLE!!! Loved it!!Long story short:The good:- Absolutely adorable and wonderful art, a given being SillySelly the artist.- A lovely cute story with plenty of fun moments.- A very adorable and beautiful romance path- Quicky and loveable characters. (The weird couple that Rie's parents make is pretty fun and endearing).- The food!The bad:- Don't play with empty stomachPS: I want an spinoff of Mayuri and Hime... yeah, I ship two background characters with not even faces.. + Beautiful artwork+ HUGE variety of food, complete with delicious-looking CGs+ Cute romance plotlines+ Lots of endings, including friendship routes- Stiff and unfunny writing- Gets repetitive- Soundtrack gets annoying after a whileI came here after playing and enjoying Ebihime's other GL visual novel, Asphyxia. Unfortunately, I didn't have quite such a good experience with Strawberry Vinegar. The formal, stilted dialogue that worked well in Asphyxia's Romantic poet-inspired world is just bizarre in the mouths of modern adults and children. In Rie's case she's meant to be unusually mature for a child, but even a precocious 9 year-old isn't going to say things like, "Spare me your sentimentality", or "A neat little sophism that encourages the importance of family meals." It would be *slightly* less weird if the main characters were at least teens, or if people found the way she talked hilarious or cringeworthy, but she's taken completely seriously.Rie is a fairly classic kuudere type who sometimes comes off as more bratty than charming. Her behaviour is rarely called out unless you're *so* awful to people you get one of the many bad endings. This is especially noticeable with her attitude toward her stay-at-home dad. His treatment in the narrative is grating, with an uncomfortable refrain of "get back in your gender role." Rie frequently references his lack of self-respect, including to his face, and at one point says his apron would be "perfectly fine\u2015if you were a woman." Really, Rie?The rest of the writing is a mixed bag. Rie and Licia are genuinely adorable together, as are Rie's parents, who make an odd sort of beta couple. The culinary writing is a bit lacklustre\u2015this is no Chocolat\u2015but the sheer variety of food makes the eating segments some of the most enjoyable. It helps that the artist did a great job on the CGs. On the flip side, the story can't quite seem to decide what tone it wants to take. For something about a little girl making friends with a demon through the joys of food, the story dips into weirdly dark territory. There are multiple endings where you can actually die, and at one point Rie's mother randomly waxes philosophical about the horrible origins of Rie's name and how having children is self-centered. (Thanks, mom?) There's a jaded edge to the narrative that's jarring against the goofy baking shenanigans, and the two sides never reconcile into anything cohesive.My main problem is the slow pacing. The same jokes and character interactions occur over and over again without adding anything to the story. Rie overanalyzes *every* line anyone says, which interrupts the dialogue and drags things out even more. Overthinking things is part of her character, yes, but that doesn't make it any more enjoyable to read her umpteenth internal monologue. By the time I got to the romantic climax of the best ending, I just wanted to hold down the skip button.TL;DR: If cute girls and tasty-looking pictures of Japanese cuisine are all you're after, Strawberry Vinegar will suit you just fine. Sadly the flaws in the writing kept me from enjoying it.. Incredibly cute VN that shifts the focus on romantic relationships between adults to the budding friendship between two children.Strawberry Vinegar features a 9 year old girl named Rie who is responsible, cynical and deep down very lonely. She is one day visited by Licia - a demon from Hell. Licia demands that Rie make her delicious food throughout the course of a week or she will reap her soul. Licia is here on a "vacation" to see what earth is like, and Rie becomes her caregiver throughout the course of a six day period. Although resisitive to having Licia around at first, Rie is unable to resist Licia's innocent, friendly and loving nature and learns that having a friend isn't so bad after all. The two girls bond through their mutual love of food and through their opposite but also complimentary personalities. The game has great music, cute and colorful artwork and backgrounds, and features tons of photos of yummy looking food! The photos of the food and ebi-hime's descriptions made me feel really hungry. To read through all of the unique dialogue, it took me about 4 hours in total. There are a total of 5 different endings, a wide variety of gallery art, and also additional things such as: concept art, cut content that never made it into the game, and the writer's thoughts on each character. Would recommend to those who like a very tame and light hearted VN (no swearing, nudity, etc), and for those who like ebi-hime's other workings.. Adorable! I really enjoy the VNs by this author and this artist, they’re both amazing. It was super cute, full of delicious food and cute scenes. There’s also a good amount of endings (6), and it’s really worth even on full price (if you have some sparing money… Otherwise, wait for a good sale).Art style, BG, BGM, characters, and story were great. The food was also so good, haha. This artist surely knows how to draw a delicious looking meal!10/10. ♥. If you're a fan of visual novels, anime trope parodies, and gal pals, this is a game for you! The writing in SV is very charming, with the main character Rie having a very distinct voice as the narrator and clever interactions with the other characters in her world. The story is about 75% Rie and Licia, 20% tantilizing food descriptions, and 5% the adorable tale of Rie's parents.The soundtrach is adorably addictive, and all of the game's artwork and sprites are absolutely stunning. I loved doing every run through of this game!
