Airoheart doesn’t catch big air nor does it have enough heart.
With so many cool and interesting otome games available in English nowadays, a milquetoast game like this is not even worth a look.
The game has potential, but its execution is muddled.
Neither a very good Etrian game nor a very good Mystery Dungeon game.
Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- The Prophecy of the Throne attempts to appeal to both casual visual novel fans and Re:ZERO fans but ends up disappointing both. The macabre elements that Re:ZERO fans expect are all but absent, and the result is a dime-a-dozen visual novel that even casual genre fans would gloss over. That said, the interactive gameplay elements, though shallow, are welcome, and the English dub is par excellence. A single playthrough took me about 14 hours, and there is only one ending. However, clear data unlocks some amusing hidden scenarios, so a second playthrough isn’t a total repeat. TPoT is not a bad game, and I actually enjoyed my time with it, but its compromises and a lack of focus keep it from being a good Re:ZERO game.
I completed this game three times and I'm still left hungry and unsatisfied.
Amusing for a weekend, but that's about it.
An utterly dissatisfying waste of a game.
This game should be tossed into the depths of the titular abyss.
Crimson Tactics wants to be a sweeping epic but is instead a cumbersome slog. Even the most patient and forgiving gamers who can look past slow pacing, terribly written dialogue, and myriad other issues will not see much potential. Crimson Tactics is an unbearably dull, poorly designed, and unfinished game that fails to deliver on any of its promises. I’m glad to be done with this game and have no intention of looking at its sequels, DLC, or any subsequent content.
I enjoyed doing my taxes more than I enjoyed playing this game.
