YMMV / Little Goody Two Shoes

• Adorkable: Rozenmarine. Her devotion to Elise, her unfamiliarity and curiosity with people ultimately makes her this. Also her obsession with pinecones.
• Awesome Art: The game has drop-dead gorgeous artwork with vibrant colors. Every chore minigame is presented in a retro-styled pixel art and the character artwork is inspired by the shojo subgenre of anime with the distinctive eyes. The cutscenes are the definite highlight of an already good-looking game, incorporating traditional anime visuals, cutoff animation and even puppet animation.
• Awesome Music: The game's soundtrack is full of original compositions, some of which definitely qualify as an ear worm.
• Captain Obvious Reveal: Flocke being the Strange Boy in disguise isn't exactly hard to guess.
• Catharsis Factor: The fact that the horrible Bad Future of Pocket Mirror can be averted as long as Elise stays true to herself is a major one. Especially in the case of Rozenmarine's ending, as the game shows she's a major Woobie. An ending where she gets a happy ending is a major relief in comparison to her original fate, where she was sacrificed.
• Complete Monster: Besides a return from Pocket Mirror, Lord Murim and Lady Aziel are Ozzy's equally wicked vassals. Helping lure girls into making a deal with their master, Murim and Aziel inflict physical and psychological pain through their trials in their dangerous realms. Also participating in Ozzy's banquets, the two feast on the loved ones given to them as sacrifices and take some of their souls as Golden Maidens for themselves. When Elise Liedl begins seeking a wish, the two lure her through their trials while also causing chaos in Kieferberg; Murim steals the village's wheat and tries to devour the boy Apfel with his minions, while Aziel wrecks the water supply and makes Elise rescue her chosen Love Interest. Should Elise bring Rozenmarine, Freya, or Lebkuchen to them, they join Ozzy in eating her in front of Elise.
• Moral Event Horizon:
  • Granma Holle, who sacrificed her husband to the Strange Boy just so she could have a child to dote on.
  • Elise can cross it after leaving Rozenmarine, Freya or Lebkuchen to die in order to fulfill her dream of fortune and riches. Made yet worse by the fact that she did this in Pocket Mirror's timeline.
• Nightmare Fuel: The Bad Ends and their illustrations, such as Elise being graphically burned at the stake and treating the player to her charred body, or being absorbed into the Tree of Creation with her face permanently frozen into a scream. The last one is especially awful, as it’s accompanied by a croaky noise that sounds very similar to the ghost in Ju-on.
• Player Punch: Elise being forced to watch as her girlfriend is Eaten Alive by the Strange Boy. Made much worse by the fact you can't do anything, if you do, it results in a Non-Standard Game Over.
• Scrappy Mechanic: The Food Meter, specifically. The other meters are relatively easy to manage ^note (the health meter is only really a factor during the Witching Hour segments and, while the game doesn't shower you in restoratives, it's still enough to keep it fairly high and there are items that heal both health and food, meaning it's easy to keep health high, and if you're good enough at the dungeon sequences, it won't even really be a factor; the sanity meter drains fairly slowly outside of a few secret and late-game areas, is once again mostly affected by the same area health is, and it's not too difficult to budget out restoration during the day; the suspicion meter has tons of opportunities to lower it if you interact with the townsfolk and keep up with a few minigames and side quests) but the food meter has to be managed every single day, and you have to make sure you don't run out of food at points where you might not have access to a food store (especially since the combination of the Witching Hour and moving on to Dawn will consume two units of food each day, and you have to survive into Dawn to get to the Bakery). Moreover, to help avoid suspicion, you need to give Muffy a specific food item each day, and it's advisable to have Rozenmarine help you with at least one task a day... which will consume an additional two food units, both eating into your income and meaning you need a buffer of at least four food to even consider doing it. Because if Elise runs out of food points, she falls over dead right then and there. This ultimately leads to frustration, both because of how much more this bar has to be managed compared to every other resource, and also because going hungry doesn't work that way. Humans can go for days without food, if need be, and can survive even longer if "simply" malnourished. Elise keeling over stone dead because she didn't get enough breads in her life manages to not be an Acceptable Break from Reality, in comparison, and makes the whole thing an annoying chore just to keep the game going.
• Ship Mates: People who ship Elise/Rozenmarine will usually ship Freya/Lebkuchen.
• That One Boss: The Aventesma, the boss of the already-frustrating Bedewed Forest of Berries, is by far the most difficult of the bosses. It is fought inside a church, where the pews can block you from dodging certain attacks, the attacks can come from anywhere, one attack summons flames in random places and has a split second dodge interval, another attack summons spears that can take out huge chunks of your health, and the Aventesma will regularly invert your controls for a period of at least two attacks. If that wasn't enough, after several attacks, Elise will have to answer a quiz question about how much she loves her chosen love interest; unlike all the other questions in the game, these ones are timed, each of the three dateable girls has a different set of questions, and letting time run out or answering wrong kills you instantly. And you have to do this three times to win the fight.
• That One Level: The Bedewed Forest of Berries, the penultimate area, is very unlike the more straightforward previous areas. In your first visit there, you have to navigate a very dark forest flooded with water and very few solid platforms, which are patrolled by masked women who will chase after you if you get too close, are very fast, and hit very hard, unless you get back to solid land. Unfortunately, you need to go in the water to find various items like the two keys you need to open the gate and leave, and there are many of the enemies around. The second area of the first visit has less of them, but compensates by being a massive pool where you have to solve the incredibly vague riddles of three statues to find three other statues, and the darkness of the pool makes it incredibly easy to get lost, with the reflections of the moon phases being your only guide. The second visit starts off easier with a simple puzzle, but then drops you into an area where you have to avoid lighting a match and stumble about in the dark instead, with various plant enemies around, because if you keep a match lit for more than a second, the living statues will find and One-Hit KO you. And if you get through that, you have to face the Aventesma.
• They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character: Back when the game was in its early progress, it was announced Roman would appear as a teenager, hinting he'd be important in the story. Not only he only shows briefly in the true ending, he's been relegated to a plot device and Elise's Meal Ticket.
• The Woobie:
  • Elise lost her grandmother recently and is treated as an errand girl by the villagers. She's willing to do a contract with the Strange Boy in order to become rich and respected. However, she doesn't know that she must sacrifice her love interest to do so. If she does find out, she ends up witnessing her gruesome death. Even when she becomes rich as she always wanted, her girlfriend is dead, the guy she ends up marrying with is magically conditioned to love her and her daughter is hexed.
  • Freya and Lebkuchen. They're happy, normal girls who just want their best friend to open up to them. Either Elise can sacrifice them to the Strange Boy, she leaves the village in circumstances that they never find out, or Elise could get burned at the stake in front of them.
  • Rozenmarine had it rough since the start. She lost her mother while still an infant, spent all of her life as a homeless beggar girl with only her grandmother to accompany her, suffered from constant persecution at the hands of people who (rightfully) accused her of being a witch, owned almost nothing execpt the heavily patched and ragged clothes on her back, became completely alone in the world after losing even her grandmother to old age and illness, and finally met a gruesome, painful death after her soulmate sacrificed her to the Devil.
  • Roman also counts as one. Not only does Elise's wish magically force him to be in love with her, but he's caught in an Awful Wedded Life with a girl who doesn't love him back and if Pocket Mirror is any indication, her actions indirectly send him to an early grave.
