“Belle Automata is the type of otome VN one can lose oneself in, and I mean that in the best possible way. I’m already looking forward to the future release of the next Chronicles.” – RPGFan“A triumph for the indie otome sphere…the blossoming relationships in both available routes are believable and well-paced as well as being unashamedly wholesome to boot.” – Rice Digital“Aureve continues Jellyfish Parade’s trend towards fun relatable heroine characters, and her design is absolutely gorgeous!” – BlerdyOtome

“If you’re looking for a sweet, moving, otome game with a stunning MC and unique premise, then I highly recommend adding Belle Automata to your wishlist.” – Sweet & Spicy Reviews
