Koishi.

At the moment its not really a "playable" game, its kinda like Tamagotchi but in really early access.

You send Koishi out to randomly explore whilst making sure she is well fed/rested and if you want her to explore a certain area, you move her to the edge of it and hope she travels in that direction.
She responds to some basic words like "Hello" and "Good morning" as well touches to certain spots.
There is combat with monsters too, but you don't control it much like the rest of the game.

It is a cute desktop pet game that you leave idle and check back once in a while, it only costs $1.50 at the moment so if you've been interested in it you can pick it up and see whats new whenever an updates go live. The author seems to work pretty hard and if he doesn't burn out, there will probably be a reasonably fast stream of updates.

As of this review, the game's still in early access, but it's interesting. I call it a desktop game with idle game elements. The ENG translation isn't perfect, but it's enough to understand the jest of what's being said, so it's good enough for me. Music is nice, but I turned it off because I usually had the game running in the background. You can control Koishi to an extend, and there's several things that requires your manual input (cooking, using items, etc), but for the most of my playtime I had Koishi explore the little map area autonomously in the background while I was doing other stuff on my PC. The game doesn't really seem to have a tutorial, so here's a little guide I put together https://youtu.be/b2-pmFf6Q54

Koishi

Thanks to this game I don't feel alone anymore when I'm playing and I'm less lonely.
The dialogues are super funny, the interactions are beautiful, and even though there is a bit of engrish (that I hope will be fixed on the future), all the game is really enjoyable.
Everything I can do in the game, from cooking to exploring the forest, is super fun to do.
Koishi's voice is really great, and catches her random personality imo. From the "Holding hands is restricted to couples" to "Oh... I almost cut your hand off...", everything sounds in-char.
I just hope the game gets many new features in the future!

A great game to play while feeling lonely or, well, when you are bored. It's fun!
Explorations can feel a bit empty, but you still have quite a lot of options for what to do!
Also, a Koishi for your desktop, just in case this wasn't great enough for you.


i swear, koishi made me atleast 200% more happy
she interacts more than the usual friend and is better than an actual one

Great Application, Cute Waifu >///<

but i found an annoying glitch. when you hover koishi to the corner of your screen and then click her boobs, koishi will move and she will be out of the screen and you cant drag her anymore. its can be fixed by restarting the game.
hope this will be fixed by the developer
