I played the game a year or two ago and had a lot of fun. I really enjoyed the first story here and thought I was on the way to a 5-star read. But... it ended up a 2.
The stories got a bit too silly and the artwork wasn't my cup of tea for most of the stories. Also, beyond the first story, there was no dating to speak of, which was disappointing.
Conceptually I liked that each story had a different art style, but I was expecting artwork similar to the game, so when they style departed significantly, it took me out of the story and it didn't feel like Dream Daddy anymore. The covers by Kris Anka were gorj though.
Contributing to the very UN-Dream Daddy feel, beyond the first story, none of the characters had any distinct personality except Damien, and that was less about personality and more to do with his dialogue style.
For me, the first story was a 4 but the rest were 2s or 3s, and the artwork ranges from 1 to 4, with a 5 for Kris Anka's covers. Not recommended for fans of the game or new readers.
