Another Code: Recollection Reviews
Even if it has its flaws, fans of the series will love Another Code: Recollection. As someone who is just starting out, this game won't disappoint. Despite its great promises, with this series in particular, I wonder why it vanished after those two entries. Nonetheless, we think Another Code: Recollection might be fantastic for lovers of the franchise. The gameplay is fascinating without being very taxing; it's an exploration with narrative-driven and puzzle-moving components. Clues in a game might lead you to other areas and even guide you through various scenarios.
Another Code: Recollection is a comprehensive remake of two forgotten adventure gems. The reinterpretation of the original material adds substantial new features, but cannot quite capture the magic of the original games. This is partly due to the puzzles, which have completely been reworked, and the lacklustre audiovisual presentation. Despite the points of criticism, I had a lot of fun with the games during my fifteen or so hours of play. I love the melancholy world of Another Code I'm and am glad that this series has been given a second chance.

Arc System Works delivers an entire retelling of the DS/Wii compilation of Another Codes games with enhanced visuals and modernized gameplay. The story is particularly well written and addresses some mature subject. We hope to see more of Ashley in the future.

By betting on complete remakes for both games, Nintendo ensures that Another Code: Recollection comes fully optimized and free of many of the problems that existed in the original versions. You may feel that the difficulty has been greatly reduced in this effort to remove much of the friction that existed in the original versions, much of it related to the specific alternative control methods of each of the original consoles, but the result is a much more entertaining game that much better fulfills its purpose as a hybrid experience between visual novel and puzzle.

If you want to experience the two Another Code games in a more or less completely new manner, the Recollection is a great opportunity for doing that. But new puzzles, cutscenes or voiceover can't hide that Another Code Recollection does not look and feel like a high value current game production.

While the puzzles are a bit easy, Another Code: Recollection is a well-executed remake and it's great to see both games worldwide.
