Pure NintendoHeath Shusterman-ZimmermanAug 20208/10We Should Talk is a great game that was fun to play through. As you dissect your various relationships, you are in for a treat. The overall story is unique—more than I expected it to be. I also felt the balance between text and the actual conversation was very well balanced and well done. The asking price of $6.99 is well worth it.

CompletexboxDan BoiseJul 202085/100We should talk. is definitely an interesting entry in the visual novel genre. While the main concept remains untouched, the fact that each answer can be created based on a variety of words opens up the door for a more realistic feel of control over the path and end of the game. Even though some answers don’t fully match your selected answers, We should talk. is one of the most enjoyable and entertaining visual novels I’ve had the chance of playing. If you’re a fan of the genre, or hell even a newcomer to the genre, We should talk. is a must-play.

Hey Poor PlayerHeather Johnson YuJul 20203/5I could have forgiven We should talk.’s narrative if it weren’t for the length. I could have forgiven We should talk.’s length if it weren’t for the narrative. The game could be short. The game could push a specific philosophy in relationships. But it couldn’t be both and still get high marks unless you absolutely already 100% agree with the developer’s stance on relationships.

Gaming NexusLee MehrAug 20203.5/10Insatiable Cycle's zeal in tackling dialogue choices is something to appreciate. But that can only go so far when the script is tacky, the game design is clumsy, and the retail price is terribly overvalued.

Movies Games and TechDiogo MiguelSep 20204/10Whilst We should talk picked some interesting topics to discuss (cheating, codependency, abuse, etc) regarding relationships, it doesn’t do a particularly good job of exploring them. It’s clear that the potential is there and yet it feels like it has mostly been squandered in a very average visual novel.
