Wendy's Adventures in Neverland Review

This is Wendy's Adventures in Neverland.
This is a marchen adventure romance game based on none other than Peter Pan. This is a visual novel that takes you on a thrilling ride on Peter Pan's wondorous land, Neverland, with you as Wendy, the narrator. Its romance simulation elements to satisfy your sweet tooth. It was a pretty good otome game for me and I enjoyed it a lot. The character designs are so cute and pretty, probably the best graphics I've seen in an otome game, and yes, otome games are different from visual novels. I found myself loving everyn character except the most important one, Peter. I don't know why, but Peter just somehow bored me. My most favorite guy I went after would have to be either Kael or Raymond, and Tudles, and Hook, and Smi, and ......well, I just love them all!! I also love the opening to this, and keep in mind that this is actually a Korean game.

Corpse Party: Blood Covered Review

This is Corpse Party: Blood Covered.
Lets start with the plot for this game.
Plot: A group of highschool students stayed after school to tell ghost stories. After a good scare one of them revealed that she is gonna transfer schools, which makes everyone sad, but then another one says there's a spell to make them always remember eachother. Everyone agrees to do it, and they all hold a human shaped paper and pull on the count of three. After doing so, they're all about to go home and an earthquake occurs. When they all wake up, they find that some of them are missing but that's not all. The school became ruin and they couldn't get out. Then they noticed that they were not even in the school and that something is lurking in the shadows, not allowing them to leave.
I swear, this game was like my worst nightmare! My friend told me she would lend me the game and that I had to complete all of it, even though she hadn't even finished it yet. I knew that this was gonna be a horror game and that there was gonna be a lot of blood(I mean, it's even in the name) and I'm okay with blood and gore. If you read my earlier posts then you would know that I played Uta no Saya, which has gore being part of the plot. But, this is like a little below Higurashi anime level, like only a tad bit below. Sure it scared me and gave me nightmares for a week or so, but the plot is so intriguing you just can't help but play this game. I could even say that this novel was way better than the Higurashi novel, not to mention graphic wise. You have to be able to handle the gore and scare factor if you want to play this game, plus you can go read the manga which is a little more detailed in the gore direction. I also think there is some people who do playthroughs on youtube, so you can go and watch those. There is also a little romance in this story, and plus a little yuri. I'd also like to say thanks to my dear friend Paige for giving me this nightmare of a game.

G-Senjou no Maou Review

This is G-Senjou no Maou:
This a visual novel which depicts a battle of wits for the ultimate supermacy. This is probably one of tthe most mind blowing games I have played. With exciting tactical combat and intriguing plots and characters, Maou would certainly cater to any kinds of of visual novel players far and wide. Purely just from its story presentation, disregarding the fact that whether or not one is a phychological thriller fan or not. The characters in particular are outstanding, both in purpose and in design. Before I get into all that, lets start with me discussing the plot.
Plot: You play the role of Azai Kyousuke, the son of a legendary gangster infamous in the underworld. You spend your time listening to Bach, playing God at school and covertly working for your stepfather, a ruthless finacial heavyweight. This exsistence is broken when two indivudials appear in the city-a beautiful girl named Usami Haru(girl in picture) with hair you could get lost in for days, and a powerful gangster known only as "Maou". Almost without delay, the two begin a deadly cat-and-mouse game, bringing you and your friends into the crossfire. Plotting, political intrigue and layer upon layer of interlocking traps are the weapons in this epic battle of wits.
So yes, this game revolves around gangsters and a mysterious, not to mention cute as heck, girl who plays a violin as her weapon. I mean, look at that fabulous hair of hers! With it being a pychological thriller, their is plenty of humor involved. Especially between Maou and Haru-chan, since he is very perverted towards her, which usually ends up in her smacking him in the head with her viloin. The main guy that you play as has several routes that take you in different directions, and I heard form one of my friends that you can actually end up with the gangster guy, giving you a really weird good ending. And yes, I mean he ends up with him in a romantic way. I am actually considering trying to get that ending, since I love yaoi, but I'm worried that it's something she just made up. The plot ceratinly keeps you on your toes, and I think if you were to play it non-stop, it would take you about 4 hours to play it. For me, it took about several days to complete it, maybe a week. It's worth it though, and if I had it my way, I would've played it non-stop.

Ef- A Tale of Memories Review

This Ef- A Tale of Memories:
Beautiful, extremely beautiful! This novel uses the textbook method of story telling. As the story progresses, you will playing from different points of views and it is interesting to see previous main characters appear out of nowhere. Ultimately, it has a beautiful story and beautiful music and it's a must try. I soon found myself intrigued by this game, and I'd have to say my favorite character was probably Chihiro. There are two reasons why. One, I absolutely love her eye-patch! And two, there was only so much conflict with her relationship with Renji, with her amnesia and all. It kinda kept me on edge and I was excited for the upcoming events. The other characters where okay, but I can't say they were above average. But maybe Miyako was a lift up for me. Although I liked Miyako to some level, she kinda got on my nerves in some parts. The boys were soooo cute in this game. I liked how the game showcased their love for the girls, and I would say this game has better love stories than twilight for sure. The graphics hit it off with me, and I love the eyes of the charcaters! They're just so pretty. Like I said before, this is a must play visual novel! If you can't play the game, then you could go watch the anime. Though, the anime isn't as good as novel.
