WTMG’s Oliver Shellding: “Though it’s not necessarily my favorite otome to date, The Crimson Flower that Divides: Lunar Coupling is an excellent piece of work in terms of appreciation and dedication to the story and the player. The sheer amount of choices and nuanced results can lead to hours upon hours of replay, and the locked endings force a player who wants to find out more to actually walk the path before arriving at the destination. I recommend turning off Naala’s voice if only to give the player more agency in how they perceive the game, but, otherwise, it’s an impressive title from beginning to end. Embark on a journey of discovery and struggle, and be utterly thankful that it takes far too many hoops to jump through in order to marry your adopted brother.”
