So, basically, they are shutting down service for all of the separate apps, including the freemium ones, though I’m not as pissed at losing those because I didn’t spend real money on them.
There is no transfer option.
So all those paid route games I bought will be gone. Any sort of progress in the freemium games will be gone.
They are moving to Story Jar but since there is no transfer, the only option is to go through and purchase them again using whatever roundabout premium currency they have.
I’m done.

Cell Phone Otome Games was a great time once upon a time. I would be fine with a single hub app IF they allowed transfer of progress. I don’t want to buy all those games again.
It looks like we can still download the app from the store so I’m going to just download all the ones where I’ve actually bought the stories and try to play them a bit to get the content saved on my phone then I just have to never uninstall them. Lol. Kind of like what people did with Flappy Bird. At least then I can keep playing them again and again. Or at least until I get a new phone and then have to deal with trying to transfer my apps… Sigh. Still very unhappy about this whole thing. T___T if I hadn’t seen your post, I’d be so screwed though so thank you for posting this!!!
Also… Check out their updated website, it looks like Android users may still be able to download them (?) But only certain titles? Hmm. I can’t even find the new app “hub” that was mentioned yet.
Ohh, that’s a smart idea! I hope it works!! I bought every route as they came out over the years… I wish there would at least be a port like Voltage/Otome Romance has done for the Switch.
I’m so sad about this! I really fell inlove with the story and characters for OZ+ and even spent $60 to both support and get the limited time starter package for the game. Then I find out today that OZ+ will be 100% gone soon. I even remember grinding Oz Coins just to get the premium stories because I liked the story and universe that much. So sad, I wont uninstall the game on my devices, in hopes some miracle happens to make them playable.
Wow it’s been awhile since I’ve been here and I was super pissed when all my Castle break downloads were taken away! That was one of the best games imo.
I’m so done with SWD and their idea to just money grab.
