Press reviews: “I came to realize that [Haru's] situation is different from others. Within the law, the system, or the community, there was no place for her to be accepted. This is a game for people who have been denied of being themselves.” AUTOMATON “A Year of Springs is the heartfelt story of three young women in Japan, facing issues with love, friendship, and gender. This visual novel is cute yet compelling, and highly recommended.” PureNintendo “本作は3者の視点からジェンダーに関する悩みを描いた作品だが、生きづらさを感じる人ならば、すべての人が共感できるものなっているし、世界や人との信頼を取り戻すきっかけになるだろう。” IGN Japan
