I played this with my friends watching and we were split between people who loved the giantess lady and the people who wanted to use the iPod as an IED.

SAEKO: Giantess Dating Sim is a stunning work that makes you go through a roller coaster of emotions that I haven't experienced with any other game. The unique visuals, story, and music all work together to bring an otherworldly, terrifying, and sometimes humorous experience that at certain points shocked me greatly. It may be based on size fetish works and has some explicit dialogue at times, but at its core it's a character-driven psychological horror game that had me invested the whole time I was playing it.
I would say there are some slight flaws with the game, however. The "Health" and "Appeal" system can be a bit shallow and taking care of your fellow drawer-mates doesn't lead to as much choice variety as I would expect, but there are multiple endings and different character interactions depending on the choices you *can* make, and though the scope is a bit more limited, you will feel the consequences of your choices and actions, and the game focuses on those to its benefit.
Overall I think the developers have created a wholly unique game that will elicit emotions few other games can. The game is rather short, about 3-4 hours long and a little longer if you want to 100% everything, but the price for the game is more than justified given the experience. I can't recommend this title enough.
I'm not very good with words and I've had to edit this review a few times to get my scattered feelings about this game in order, but I hope you'll consider trying out SAEKO. It's not for everyone, but nothing else can offer the same experience.
Kina is best girl.
What can I say?
I am a simple guy, with simple needs.
(From what I played, if you think this game is just a fetish game. It's not. It finds it's own way to make it stand out as its own thing. It just uses it's "niche" to draw players in. It's a visual novel game with a mix of Psychological Horror, two genre's I've been meaning to get into! If the premise doesn't interest you, move on. But if you want to look at something, different from the norm. Check it out, you might even like it.)
I played Saeko through DLSite, so don't worry about my playtime and achievements.
SAEKO: Giantess Dating Sim isn't a game for people who are already deep-in with a size fetish. It uses a giant woman as a backdrop to tell its story but does not linger to exist as a fetish game. It's psychological horror. You spend time making moral choices in an environment that's staged and shown to you as truly hopeless and you're forced to make decisions of who lives and who dies.
The artstyle and music are both godly and I'm so glad this game came out. It tells a depressing story that's been told before in an extremely unique way and wears it's inspiration on it's sleeve. (Shoutout Oyayubihime.) I can't wait to see and hear more from SAFE HAVN!
